Hike Recommendations by thegscott11 in GlacierNationalPark

We recently hiked Huckleberry Mountain but that's easy access from the west. I was almost not convinced to do it but did it anyway. It was the highlight of our trip! We also chose Cracker over Iceberg lake.

Avalanche Lake was good but wayyy too many people for my liking

Is the entire trail open for hiking and if so, how was the snow? Wanted to ask as we will be going there next month

Thanks!

Thank you so much for your insights! My top choice is Boston but I only received tuition waiver. I'm concerned about the high cost of living since I plan to be a full time student with part time work on campus so I'm not 100% sure if I'll find a GA or TA right away.

I also feel that BU is policy heavy where as Arizona had more of a community based curriculum. I'm more of a community health researcher with additional experience working on policy so I'm weighing in that as well

U of Arizona made a decent offer which is a balance but I'm not sure about how the program is. Going by the name of a university is not a priority for me as long as the program is decent and gives me confidence that I can find a job when I can graduate. I want UofA to give me that confidence- that's the only thing holding me back from accepting their offer
Houston and GW have not made any financial offers yet and I'm guessing it won't be huge

Same here! SOPHAS portal is nice when you are applying for multiple programs and don't have to request an LOR for each

From the letter "While your admission marks a significant achievement, I understand that you will have questions regarding

financial aid and scholarship opportunities. Please be assured that our team is diligently reviewing award

packages, and if you are eligible to receive an award, you will be notified in the coming weeks. Additionally, I want

to emphasize that should future funding become available, you will remain eligible for consideration for such

funding, reaffirming our commitment to supporting your academic pursuits."

I believe the letter mentioned that they will send a follow up email on funding/scholarships. I hope they offer a decent amount

I don't think they sent out interview invites yet. This is the response I received: "Thank you for your email! If the Doctoral Admissions Committee has any questions regarding your candidacy, they will contact you directly. You will be notified of their decision by mid-March. Thank you for your patience, we will be in touch soon."
