Hi all, After various acceptances and rejections, I am trying to decide between two archaeology programs: 1) an Ivy (with no funding for the first year and “possible funding in subsequent years”) or 2) a mid-tier state school (with TAship, promises of summer work, enthusiastic POI, etc). What is worth more: the Ivy name on my CV or money/experience at a less well known institution? Perhaps some of you are in a similar situation? Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Has anyone heard from WashU? I had an official interview but have not heard anything since...
