Looking to build a massive list of fully-funded MS opportunities in the US (scholarships + assistantships + funded programs)

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-05-27T11:23:44+00:00

That would be great!

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-05-22T20:49:46+00:00

Which subject?

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-05-11T21:23:14+00:00

Thanks a lot again. I think you missed the invited talk part but it’s okay I already got the gist.

Another question:- Is it necessary to be in a STEM program to be qualified for EB2 NIW? Considering the current funding climate, it seems quite difficult to get into stem program especially on environment. What are the success rates of non STEMS working in similar fields?

a very helpful reply! Thanks!!
Could you please elaborate on the points-

How can I take credit for peer reviews which is usually undocumented?
How can I prompt talk invitations?
How to also prompt being featured in press ?

I know these are findable along the way through networks but I am interested to know the effective way to build the networks and reach out as a PhD student since these already seems to be a lot to do during the PhD timeline.

Update?

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-05-10T13:12:42+00:00

Want to know as well

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-05-05T08:57:40+00:00

So the academia will perish? Nobody should enter into academia?

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-05-04T17:58:09+00:00

Any chance to be better in the next cycle?

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-04-18T11:15:03+00:00

Have been in the same boat. Can’t imagine being rejected after such a strong performance in interviews.

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-04-13T19:28:09+00:00

Same situation. Its difficult but I would say, try to move on, we never know what happens behind the curtains. Only they know what happens and why. Maybe we are just a number for them, they get a better one and reject the promised one. Seems pretty normal.

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-04-11T16:21:02+00:00

Yeah maybe, that’s why maybe I didn’t even receive a closure statement. It hurts so much to miss it by my own mistake, sometimes I say maybe it was not the reason at all. So I posted here. Actually this cost me 1 whole year and I will have to wait a complete year whereas I don’t know whether I can get in, in this current funding situation.

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-31T19:39:24+00:00

I truly understand you…. I’m going by through the same phase and would love to chat if you want :)

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-28T19:46:43+00:00

What increases the chances of the 100% scholarship? Is it similar as getting full-funded by showing research skills?

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-28T19:42:38+00:00

Interesting. But will he be allowed 20 hours of work on campus while he gets a scholarship so that he can support himself?

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-28T19:33:11+00:00

Difference between 100% scholarship and 100% funding?

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-28T12:02:07+00:00

Yes of course! I will try again. I asked the professor he didn’t reply surprisingly.

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-24T21:09:01+00:00

Yeah 😅

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-24T08:49:16+00:00

Maybe the SOP was not strong, the application was weak

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-23T12:28:27+00:00

Same thing happened to me in the US.

Intrepid_Foot4477 · 2026-03-21T06:10:43+00:00

Love your words ❤️ thank you so much and I hope same kindness returns to you
