@Topiipii. Any new update concerning funding?
Graduate coordinator for Colostate mailed me, I'd have to apply for TA or email individual faculty for RA. Any update from your end?

In state waiver on all 3 admits.

Will contact faculty individually for assistantship from tomorrow.

@House. Any sense in mailing Tamuk faculty for GA,TA,RA? My interest has shifted to the most recent admit - UofH.

Will be back to drop my profile + why I feel I got all d admits.

If you are asking Drinview (Time2Smile, 2017) she got her tuition totally waived and I guess she would get an RA or TA which will keep being renewed as long as she maintains 3/4 (lol..which means she has the scholarship till she is done).

I am surprised you guys are surprised. She had said it before pages back. That's why I was confident she would get atleast 2 of her top schools. It is not just about the 4/4 but that she got it from the UK which schools in the US can vouch for as against Local degrees.

If you sent an empty email to the correct addresses, you would get the materials almost instantly. The issue will most likely be from your own end.

It will come provided they don't withhold the results. So expect it later today or latest tomorrow (that is, if it hasn't already come).

There is supposed to be a "send score" or an "order score" button on your TOEFL account home page. Just click on it and follow the prompt. Try to use an Access bank account as they provide auspicious rates for the endeavour.

Congratulations @drhopeful

I need clarifications in these area

1. How long does it take to send ones GRE score to another school?

this second is a bit long. pls read

2. I didn't register my GRE by myself, its from a consult that helps in registration . I want to send my GRE score to some other set of schools , and since I read on earlier threads here than it is cheaper to send the money via ones bank and not third party because they will charge with the parallel market rate.
I have consulted the person and he is like he cant remember the password he used to create my account but if I need to resend, I should send the money to him and he will use remember password to ask GRE to send my score to the other school.
What should I do?


Thanks in Anticipation.


There should be a "forgot password" link. Why not explore it to change the password then you can move ahead with your plans of sending the scores to your schools?

I remember the 4.3/5 and also knew she got a distinction, but did not know the GPA. In fact, I have to start putting Aunty in front of her name whenever I want to address her.

On a different note, where is happyday ?

I applied for a PhD. My department contacted me weeks ago telling me that I was recommended for admission into their MS program instead. They were polite enough to request that I should change to ms using the link they sent to me.
Mind if we hook up via email for seamless cross-fertilzation of opinion pertaining to colostate?

Now this is very insightful ... Thanks for sharing ... 8 years work experience (as in that's enough already talkless of the UK master degree with a 4/4) ... so most of us now know what it takes to get into PennState with full funding ... Let's keep announcing admits like this so we can tell which school matches our profile ... especially the young ones like US ... #MoneyCannotComeAndWaste edakun ... Thanks once again and i wish you all the best Ma
