Thanks for reaching out, and for your interest in our research activities.

It is difficult to know what my funding and recruitment situation will look like a year from now, for a start date in Fall 2020. If you are still interested next fall/winter, could you please reach out again? I think I will have a better idea of my funding and recruitment situation by that time.

Best wishes,

Just get the reply. But I'm sure what I should reply. But I really want to work with this tutor.

He/She does not have ensured funding at the moment to take you in. Apply somewhere else as you may wait a year and things may not change.

I would reply something like that. " thank you for getting back to me and informing me of the situation.I shall get in touch again next year......."

Agree with PhDhere, he has no money and he doesn't want to waste your time.

Maybe my application for the next year reached out at the beginning of this year is too early. So I think I may have the chance.
By the way, do you know the earth science study at University of Montana?

Thanks for your reply. I'm looking for other tutor of other university in CA. Because I really like CA.

I told her 'of course, I will reach out in the next year, I really want to join her research group'
