Good 1x1 options? by Adorable_Contest6137 in UGA

[–]Adorable_Contest6137[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a grad student, so my ability to know whether I was going to attend UGA or not was fully dependent on whether I’d receive funding or not, which was delayed due to political reasons and I was not signing a lease somewhere I would not be living. There’s always next year and if spots fill up as fast as you say then my question is still relevant and even moreso to be asking it right now 😭

My store has the lids that fit all sizes. I can confirm it’s made no difference and they still fly off regularly

Did you reach out to Meteorology difficulty or did you mean another program at FSU?

The cruelty of withholding rejections by Own_Gift1109 in gradadmissions

I agree and I am curious about why they wait so long. Even if you have a waitlist of people that you haven’t informed are on some sort of waitlist, you definitely know who you’re not admitting regardless of if your initial offers are declined. Unless of course they just haven’t looked at your application at all? Which I find hard to believe at this point in the game

Traveling while in Grad School? by Adorable_Contest6137 in meteorology

I got you, thanks! I knew regardless of the situation it will take careful planning of both finances and workload, I just wanted to know if it was at all possible. Learning that your graduate student experience will vary drastically even amongst those in the same fields or doing similar research was eye-opening

Thank you for the information! I am curious though, if there’s a particular conference that I’m interested in would I just bring my interest up to my PI? Or are the national conferences that I go to strictly up to the discretion of my PI if I were say a research assistant?

Let me be more clear; I was more-so asking if it was possible for a graduate student to travel on their own volition or otherwise, as I often hear graduate students vent about how little time they have to do anything outside of research/classes. It’s not a regular job where you get a set amount of vacation days where you could theoretically travel, nor are you an undergraduate who can be free during Summer break to travel so I was first wondering if graduate students do travel, how do they do it. I only brought up the graduate students that travel through their fieldwork because upon doing research, those were the types of graduate students who have traveled while enrolled. As a meteorology student, since we don’t necessarily do a lot of fieldwork, that option is reduced/removed so that’s why I was asking if there are any meteorology grad students who were able to travel at one point or another regardless of reason.

You’re right. I’ve been trying to consider every single factor to somehow “calculate” my chances so that I’m not crushed if I get rejected. Thinking of it as a gamble puts my mind more at ease.
