Assistantship wait-lists

Hello all,

My efforts to find out this information may be futile, but I thought I would ask anyway. Does anyone know when a school would let me know if I actually did receive an assistantship if I have been placed "high on the alternate list" to receive one? Also, if anyone has any experience in this type of situation, what do you think my chances are of actually receiving one if the DGS told me that I have a "very good chance"? How exactly does that translate? Thanks for the help.

Hi Malibubl,

Unfortunately, I've never heard of this sort of thing so I can't offer much help. I can only offer that you might contact your DGS to ask about this, as it would obviously impact your decision to study there. And it goes without saying that if this is a PhD program, you should never (ever ever ever) attend without funding. I'm sure you know all of this. Best of luck.
