AD Stat PhD@VT

第一年没有钱！
怎么说呢，对vt的心情实在是略过复杂。上周开会遇到几个vt的老师，正好很熟，然后就聊到vt到现在为止杳无音讯。由于他们只是faculty search committee的并不了解录取phd的情况，但还是热情的帮我去问了，毕竟他们也是sponsor我五月去vt开会present的教授.......我想这个ad大概是为了避免大家都尴尬而发的吧🤷‍♀️
. Waral dи,

刚刚vt的教授联系我了....证实了我的猜想。感觉欠老师好大的人情😂

Dear xxx
xxx tells me that he sent out an admissions letter today.  I understand that we can't offer you funding at this time.  Funding is highly competitive and about half of our students are admitted without a guarantee of funding.  However, often they are able to secure funding, but not always right at the start.  Everyone who passes our qualifying exam and advances to PhD study, after the first year, is offered funding.

Congrats, and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.  It was very nice meeting you last week at Duke.

Cheers,
xxx

lz开会是哪个？

duke的一个agent-based model workshop。很小型的一个会，只请了这个领域的人，正好vt有好几个老师在做

如果后面几年的funding可以guarantee的话，楼主还是可以考虑一波的，不然还是谢谢老师就好

lz开会是哪个？

楼主是今天刚收到offer的么？

现在也是这样，就是第一年自费，过了qual后有funding

感觉也比UConn的第一年过了也不能保证有funding强
