UW录取，有了解授课型硕士PMP情况的吗？本来申的MS，被转成了PMP，求助！！

今天早上收到UW的录取，本来很高兴。但是一看，竟然是授课型硕士，PMP（Environmental Engineering Professional Master's Program）。说有可能转成研究型，但要取决于系里有没有钱。查了一下，一年就能修完课程。
想问一下，有收到过这种录取的同学吗？
有没有师兄师姐能说说这种转研究型的是不是很困难？

这是个夜大,晚上上课的,感觉非常不靠谱

lz确定这不是uw发了拒信之后群发的那个小广告？而且还要再另外申请的
同上感觉不靠谱

邮件里这么说的：
Congratulations on your offer for admission to the University of Washington Graduate School for Autumn 2013.

We have reviewed your application for admission to the Civil & Environmental Engineering Department's master degree program and are very favorably impressed with your qualifications.  You have been approved for admission to the Environmental Engineering Professional Master's Program (PMP) beginning Autumn quarter, 2013.  Autumn quarter begins Wednesday, September 25, 2013.

Students admitted to the PMP are not funded by the department. In some instances, it is possible to begin in the PMP and switch to the research track later. However, opportunities to switch to the research track are limited and depend on the unpredictable availability of research funds, as well as case-by-case decisions by principal investigators. Applicants to the research track for whom insufficient research funding is available are automatically considered for admission to the Professional Master's Program.

Students in the PMP take classes alongside Master's and PhD students who are on the research track, so there is no difference in the quality of the program from an instructional point of view. The diploma is the same for all master's students regardless of whether they are on the PMP or research track. The PMP simply involves additional coursework in lieu of doing a thesis, and is a good fit for students interested primarily in professional practice.

For more information regarding the PMP, please see our website at: http://www.ce.washington.edu/prospective/grads/masters.html

我也收到了，和你一模一样，但是有CMU的AD, 这个我估计要拒了.

看这个录取的意思是不是指申请者本身的研究不是很强，然后经费又不足，所以……不过我倒是觉得如果以后是想工作的话，这个项目也还可以吧。主要是比较喜欢西雅图这个城市

我今天也收到了同样的信，由于已经有CMU的AD小奖，这个不太考虑了。现在还有9所学校没有消息。。。

我也和楼上得一样。。CMU的ad和UW的PMP估计我都要把拒了。

我也收到了同样的信…楼主之前有找教授陶瓷吗？我觉得想转研究型，得找教授套一套吧…
