Ambigiousbuthopeful Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Is it common for grad-students in the humanities/social sciences to be offered 4 years of guaranteed funding (as opposed to a 5 year package) simply because they enter the programme with a Masters?

peternewman89 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Can't say anything about common, but I'll be starting a Political Science program and have a full 5 years of funding, not coming in with a masters or anything. I talked with the other people offered admission and everyone, masters or not, had the same funding offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rising_star Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 In my field, pretty much everyone enters the Ph.D. with a MA (there are like 3 departments that are exceptions to this) and PhD funding packages are 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambigiousbuthopeful Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 Well, thanks..I checked with current students at my department and POI and it seems to pretty standard, so i'm not going to worry about it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
