anoveldave Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 As the countdown closes in on the 15th, I'm in a situation that a lot of people seem to be in, with two schools to decide between. In my case, it comes down to whether I receive word on the funding deficit between the two offers that'll allow me to choose the school that I believe is a slightly better fit for me at this juncture. Anyway, I'm sure that there are a lot of people on this forum that aren't applying straight out of undergrad, which means you might have a job of some sorts. As it seems the end of the work day on the 15th is the suggested "deadline," how are those of you trying to choose between two schools planning out your day? I just thought about the overlap, since I work nonorthodox hours (1-9 p.m.). It's too late to think about getting anyone to cover for me, which means I'll have to either make the decision and send out the e-mails before I head into work (accepting one and graciously rejecting the other). If it comes down to the wire, I'm thinking about preparing e-mails for both scenarios and saving them as drafts that I can easily send from my iphone as I sneak into the bathroom during work. Anyone have similar, or better, plans/advice?
tarrman Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 I'd do it before work just in case. Is 4 hours really going to make a difference?
anoveldave Posted April 14, 2013 Author Posted April 14, 2013 That's true... Luckily, I did hear back on my funding and it looks like I'll be able to make a decision and send out e-mails to the relevant people tonight.
