我同学去年去的UMich，前两天告诉我MS第二年开始可以申请GSI，相当于TA，免学费+2300/mon+保险，这么一看 ...

这里有一封招生办发给我的邮件，你可以参考一下：
There are positions such as graders that pay a relatively small amount of money, but it sounds like you are looking for tuition support, correct?  The main ways for Master’s students to get tuition support are through GSRAs (research assistant) and GSI (teaching assistant) positions.  Both of these are typically something that Master’s students apply to engage in for their second term rather than first term, since in most cases in-person interviews will have to be conducted, and students don’t arrive on campus in time to be able to do those interviews for the Fall term. Also, for GSRA positions, many faculty will ask that the student do an independent research project (ME 590) with them during the Fall term, and if that goes well, they may fund them during the second term, but they won’t commit to funding them up front without knowing how the student will perform.

On the positive side, if you do research with a professor and they decide after a term or two to support your admission to the Ph.D. program, at that point you will be given a full funding package that pays full tuition+stipend+benefits for 4-5 years.

运气比较好..之前对VT没有太多的期待，相反觉得PSU的更靠谱点，两者结果却反过来了。不会的...UM真的在我感兴趣的方向算是最强的...比UM再好一点的都不屑研究这个方向....因为这个方向太平庸，影响因子太小了...跟Nano 还有solid mechanics的影响因子比起来差几个数量级。

就是感觉对于Master来说想要能cover学费的话还是GSI（TA）可能性更大些是吗？GSRA的话需要Prof.给，我觉得大多数还是愿意给PhD的吧？

嗯，我觉得你说的对~...不过也要看老师了，如果有的老师很有钱，他也许会给你GSRA，即使你没有意向在他那里做PhD

我个人来讲比较喜欢UIUC呢！UM的学费确实太。。。

妹子你最后去哪里了啊？来UIUC和我作伴吧~~

公立学校都是大屌
