I have a 5th fully funded PhD admissions from FSU (was previously waitlisted) and is my top choice. I have accepted a previous admissions with funding from another school. But I want to know the average cost of a 1bedroom (I am married with a kid) in Tallahassee Florida, before reneging on the previous admissions in UNIV IF NEBRASKA LINCOLN....which has low cost of living. I am changing because of the cold in Lincoln because of my health. I am asthmatic. Any kind response will be appreciated. 08022210700. Thanks. Stipend is 22,600 for FSU, and 23,200 for Lincoln NEBRASKA. Both are full.

Hello all, I am just worried somehow. My wife is a Registered Nurse (Diploma) and we have a baby of 1 year and 3 weeks, does it make sense to apply with them? I am going for PhD with full funding. Deficit is about 6,800 including the 2 dependants.
Will her nursing diploma Certificate not be a red flag? Can I decide not to state it on the DS160?

Your suggestions are welcomed please! @ Moshkom, Fairheart, Justwise and others who have faced similar situations

-Is your wife a BSC-registered nurse in Naija, if yes, I would advise you to create a path B for her.. MSN-PHd route or licensure route.F2 is going to waste her needed talent in the US because she’ll not be allowed to work unless she can change her status.
-You can go alone and make arrangements for them to join you later..
-If she’s not a Bsc-registered nurse in Naija, you can go with her as F2 dependent, then when you’re settled in, she can do evaluation and transfer course credits earned in Naija to US school and finish her nursing program.

-Or you can file for her and F2… you all go together… once you’re granted your stay, they become riders.
Pick long term gain over short term pain!

Good luck.
Thank you for your response @ Biglyanga.
She does not have a BSc in Nursing but a Diploma in Nursing (RN) with a license. Should I include this on the DS 160 or should I just write O level as highest level of qualification and put another thing as profession.

Congratulations on your admissions. Sociology? That's good, I also got into a PhD program in sociology funded as well, mind if we could connect?
(Which School?)

Hello House, I currently have 4 PhD admissions with funding, but 2 are more funded because they each came with a stipend and fellowship. However I am still waiting for 5 admissions. But because of the harsh winter in Nebraska, I am hoping to get any school in the south but they are delaying, no responseat all. Should I accept the University of Nebraska Lincoln (Sociology) since is the best funded and best ranked for now because of the scarcity of visa interview date and because time is also running out?
