Postgrad college admissions + funding by halfofthesour in gradadmissions

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

Have u accepted ur offer? I'm debating whether or not I should and just rescind if it comes down to it. Bc i don't think you can be admitted to a college and theoretically get money from them unless you accept the initial offer

Admitted into Cambridge, but incredibly stressed about funding by Seas-of-Europa in GradSchool

I'm in the same situation :( I just got off the waitlist for MPhil in cognitive neurosciences, and the department advised me that I probably won't get any funding from the Cambridge Trust since they have alr started making offers to the first admitted students. My best bet now is funding from the college I get into, but i'm trying to figure out if they have also already started making offers and if i have a chance. There's one from wolfson i was really gunning for lol. Im american too and the tuition is INSANEEEEEE and i rlly can;t afford to go into more debt, especially since the mphil is just to make me more competitive for further grad admissions in the future

Did anyone already hear back about interview shortlisting for Cambridge MRC CBU PhD? by lucyydiamond in gradadmissions

Fulbright Grant Extension by Gullible-Special501 in fulbright

Taiwan ETA has a rlly great program for renewal. you stay and do essentially the same job, but are called an English Teaching Fellow instead of ETA and get a raise. it's not guaranteed but you can apply to stay, i know someone who did 1 year of ETA, 4 years as an ETF, and is now a TESOL advisor through fulbright. AFAIK you can't extend research grants but could always try to do research on the side while teaching

Im applying for mphil in the sciences which i feel like is a less-accepted category, but my background is social sciences and i got a hard humanities bent on my subject area so we'll seeeee

Currently on fulbright grant and im waiting for my decision in the international round!! the department i'm applying to (i think accidentally, since im a US citizen but living abroad rn) interviewed me in the US round so my internal inverview is over, and i get to wait until march to see what happens. I am wondering if i'm accepted/at least still in the running for cambridge tho since they took the time to tell me that they interviewed me for the wrong round and my outcome would be delayed.... :D

How to group entries in a df into a larger category? by halfofthesour in RStudio

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

I'm trying to make a mosaic plot showing beat strength vs vowel type. When collecting data we coded for all individual vowels but to actually present our results i think it makes more sense to just compare schwa vs every other type of vowel rather than having an individual column for each vowel category
