Hello everyone,
I just got admitted into Georgia state university and University of Illinois Chicago. Both schools require 250$ acceptance deposits before I can get to know my scholarships offer and apply assistantships. Please my seniors in the house who are already in the system, kindly advise which of these 2 schools have a more robust offer for scholarships. I have 250$ for just one of the school and I'm at the junction of making a life decision.

Brother, any serious school will indicate there scholarship offer in the Admit Letter. It is obvious that none of the schools can be relied on for funding. Don't waste your money on any of the schools except you are certain that you have other means to finance the program.

Please note that I also have an MS Accounting admission offer at UIC.

Goodluck!

Just my thoughts sha. For a research based program like this, you should really look for tuition funding at least. Your current experience as a research assistant should be a bonus and to your advantage when contacting Profs. Your Uncle is retired and based in Naija, with the current depreciation of the Naira it might not be very easy to convince someone that he would foot your bills easily - even though he can. All the best.

Thanks for your input.
I already requested for my i-20 and it's on it way.
How can I change this narrative to suit me?
Would it be best I sell myself as a research assistant?

All,

I would like to ask, is it wise to tell the VO that you have a business to sponsor yourself but on a safe side too, you took a student loan to cover your bill?

The bolded statement in your statement isn't true. There are many "serious" and highly ranked schools that won't give letter of funding until weeks later of giving admission letters. - many people here can testify to this.

Schools differ, and are unique in their modus operandi. Relate with your Graduate coordinator, they are the ones with the perfect information especially with regards funding.

Hi everyone!
I got rejected after applying for a PhD at Georgia state University yesterday. I already contacted a professor that was willing/accepted to mentor me before i applied.. My gre score is 302, Awa: 4.0. My write-ups were fine, i even got reviews and help from involved people. I just finished my masters program but didn't include it as there's no transcript at the moment. Please, what could be the reason why my application didn't come through because i met all requirements and i even had a P. I that was interested already.. Thanks in anticipation for your responses

Am sorry about the rejection, but you didn't put your undergraduate gpa but based on gradcafe website i observed that the average gpa of admitted students was at least 3.67, maybe its from there?

You have a good profile. I think you are getting the process wrong at some point in your applications. Let’s know the process you are going through, which schools you applied to any other things that you did during the process. Just last week a lady with your proposed course of study celebrate the 3rd PhD admission with funding. A lot of funding opportunity in Chemistry, yours too is coming on the way. Don’t give up because this hustle motto nah “who give up, Bleep up”

It happens. WES takes many factors into consideration. They just don't do maths over the whole GPA and convert from 5 to 4.

Could be this year was highly competitive and you had more qualified applicants ahead of you. Remember, simply meeting all application requirements does not guarantee admission. That is why it is advisable to apply to multiple schools at the same time.
