Notify Potential Advisor of Change in Master's Thesis Topic?


Dubya

Recommended Posts

Almost immediately after submitting applications my thesis began to change direction. My current topic (that won't change since there is no time for it to) is only slightly related to what I wrote about in my applications, but more closely correlates to the work of two of my potential advisors. I realize that it's usually frowned upon to contact profs when decisions are being made, but is it worth taking a risk and sending out an e-mail addressing the issue?

I'm not sure if an email that says "hi, just wanted to let you know that my research has changed TOTALLY in the last two months" is a great idea...it would probably be a lot more useful to ask your advisor and MA professors than us, though, they're a better resource :)
