Expand It depends, really. Location (higher COL=higher salary), prestige/competitiveness (Harvard would pay more than UMass-Boston), and funding levels (state vs. private) can all play a role. On a broad scale, you can probably expect 45-65k, but that is 1. highly variable, and more importantly 2. contingent on actually getting a job, which it in and of itself is tough to do.

S-Kyo Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Delaware waitlisted. If you have offer from Delaware but will go to another school can you decline Delaware offer? Thank you
Grad Apps Aren't Fun Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Is anyone else still waiting to hear back from Northwestern? Obviously there's not a chance that I'm getting in at this point, but I still wish that they would just reject me... Tried contacting the graduate program coordinator and no response.
Positivist Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Waitlisted at UW-Milwaukee. If anybody has an offer elsewhere and is not intending to go to UWM, I hope you could decline soon. Thank you. I truly appreciate it.

Expand I talked with the office and apparently the admit decisions were supposed to go out earlier than they did, but there was a communication error that delayed sign-off by the Dean's office. Admit day is April 6th, so if you have not gotten a rejection it might be worth calling/emailing. My conversations with the grad assistant Carol were pleasant and informative.
