Hi,
I am an overseas student. I have been offered PhD place. I can begin to study immediately, but that will mean I have to finance myself. What to be careful about funding before registration? How can I have an idea about my chances of getting fudning there next semester?
I am trying to figure out my chances about research assistantship opportunities at the university. Do you think it would be appropriate if I call my prospective supervisor and talk to him about the research assistantship possibilities as well as other issues about my PhD?
