求助:berkeley一年的stats ma能延长吗？

感觉一年的program进去马上就得找full-time，有些吃紧。。

应该可以延长到一年半吧，不知学费是否也要相应交多半年?

学费是肯定要多交的，但就怕不能延，官网上是这么写的：
Students are expected to study full time and finish the program in two semesters. In cases where there is a compelling academic reason for a student to extend the duration beyond two semesters, permission may be granted after consideration by MA advisors. Students will be responsible for tuition, fees, and personal expenses for every semester in which they are registered as students at Berkeley.
感觉不是很清楚，是不是只有那些学习上特别有困难的人才可以延？

早点毕业 难道不好么？master有神马好拖的
省钱又省事
毕业也可以找工作啊

不要拖，速战速决。同意楼上。什么延长都是借口

延毕可不是什么好的Signal, 拖啥呢...

我觉得两个学期太短了，不过加州还是技术类好找工作

真想延毕的话, 你就跟advisor说你求知若渴, 有哪些额外的课真的很想上, 上了之后会对你的能力又如何如何的提高, 对你的career有如何如何的帮助. I-20给了多少时间? 如果是两年, 那这种理由应该可以的.

Duration: Students are expected to be fulltime members of the program and to complete the program in one academic year. This will make them eligible for employment or for Ph.D. programs a year earlier than our former program allowed. Requests for longer completion time may be considered in exceptional cases.

还是尽量在一年内读完吧，费用确实不菲。粗粗算来 $6万美金/年 是需要的。如果找不到full time也可以考虑毕业后OPT期间先干一份part time job或者无薪volunteer，继续申请phd。当然也可以考虑延长1学期或1学年多选修一些课，以便继续找工作或衔接申请phd需要的学术背景。当然也要考虑到它是否值得投入？

越来越体会到手中握有PhD offer机会的人不要轻易放弃而从了所谓名校MS/MA ad这一道理。缘于现实过于残酷。
