For those of you still waiting for its master's program, I emailed somebody and was replied "you may expect to hear from us within the next two weeks via email". There is little chance that I could get in the doctoral one, so I'll pray for the best for ussmile.gif

Admitted to its master's program just now, no funding. Though I might not end up being a sociologist, I am so grateful that I can go to my dream schoollaugh.gif

I was also admitted to the Master's program and not PhD, but I declined the offer. Since there is no funding and it's not for the degree I was seeking.

Best wishes to those attending!

So if I understand things correctly, those applying to the terminal MA are not eligible for funding? But those who do the MA as part of the Ph.D program are funded? Because I thought I might apply to a master's first to strengthen my applications for Ph.D, but I need funding...

Terminal MA programs are very separate from PhD programs. If you are admitted into a PhD program, there is MA level coursework and requirements that you need to complete, but the degree ultimately leads to a PhD not a MA. In general, funding for MA programs is scarce. Depending on the school and funds available, schools will tell you even in their website if PhD students are funded.
