hey guys...greetings to all...i have an offer from 2 univ to read for a phd with funding...both are good universities and great supervisors....I have chosed one and i am keep my fingers crossed on how to convey the message to the other supervisor? can u plz help me out? i dont want give a bad feeling bcause in a research career we may never know when we are goin to meet him next

Tell the truth and they will really appreciate it thats what I did.

I really wouldn't be worried about it. Most students apply for several positions and then choose one. Tell him/her that you found his offer very interesting, thak him/her for the plesant interview (if it was), but you now have accepted a different PhD poistion that suits u better.

But do it as soon as posibble- he/she won't be angry if you don't take the position- but she/he will definatly be angry if you don't tell them, and they then can't offer it to someone else.
