dungtn Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Hi everyone, I couldn't find the UMass, Amherst thread so I thought I would start one :-) I will join the CS Ph.D. program this fall and I'm very excited about it. Have any of you had a academic advisor yet? And how is life there? Should I choose the dorm or off campus? *Too many questions :-)) Nice to meet you all!

marature Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 potential Master's student (still deciding). Anyone know what the deal is with on-campus housing (e.g. Lincoln Apartments)? Seems like mixed messages about whether it is possible to secure a spot or not, if you are not applying for family housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am wondering whether i should email some POIs for finding and advisor to work with or wait until I get there. about the housing, I have heard many students live in Sunderland apartments, near Amherst. good place but not in the city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
