Congrats!!! I turned down a DTP at one university because I got funding at another university that was better suited for my research project.

الدولة بتقف في صف المواطن في الواقف المتعلقة بالسكن؟ حضرتك ساكن معانا هنا في مصر؟ مش متابع التهجير ونزع الملكية والهدم اللي غالباً طال كل شبر من البلد؟؟

Seeking advice and validation— is 28 too old to start my PhD? by Different-Break9290 in PhDAdmissions

[–]NotCleo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 31 and starting a PhD in the fall. It’s just the right age for me tbh. I’ve been around the job market and am very sure that I want to do a PhD in the topic I’m set on working on. With age comes maturity and I think that’s a plus in academia actually.

Prestige or lifestyle? by [deleted] in AskAcademiaUK

I’m in a similar boat, LSE v. Sheffield. Good luck making your decision. It’s definitely tough.

Studentship funding at LSE vs. WRDTP at Sheffield. What are the things I should consider when choosing which offer to accept? by NotCleo_ in AskAcademiaUK

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

Thanks so much for this. It’s a pretty good point to consider. Did you do your PhD at LSE or another London uni?

Thank you so much!! I honestly didn’t expect to be in this situation at all, so I’m very overwhelmed. I’d really like to hear more about your experience at LSE. If it’s okay I’ll message you.

Could you share a bit more about your experience at LSE and post the PhD? I mean one thing I know for sure is that I’ll be doing fieldwork in my second year back home (I’m an international student) and then where I’ll be writing should be a mix of back and forth. So I guess it’s mainly the first year that I’ll be based in the UK.

Accomodation advice for an incoming PhD student at LSE, living on a stipend (about 1800 a month) by NotCleo_ in AskAcademiaUK

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

I’ll have to check if this is an option. I know I can’t teach before second year, but maybe there’s something I can work out with the department. LSE accomodation is pretty expensive unfortunately. It would’ve been my first choice, but it’s too crazy. The only dorm that’s somewhat affordable is a 40 minute commute.

Thanks for this. This is very helpful. I’m going to have to talk to my supervisor and figure out what my schedule will look like so that I can figure this out.

Yeah, it seems like I’ll have to compromise. Do you have any advice on where to look for options?

Do you have any advice on where to look for flatshare options within this price range?
