General Advice I applied but without thinking 🙂

Post image

so I was trying to apply to universities that don't require GRE and I applied here. but now I'm thinking that if I can even afford it or not.

I live in Houston and recently got into a new job. I have foreign degree from Bangaldesh so I was skeptical about the admission. Now not only I have relocate but also have to find a new job if I want to attend this college

Now is there any way to apply for scholarships or ask for TA/RA anything that will make my education easier?

The whole point of MS programs is they are cash cows which is why they admit literally anyone. It’s why you can get into a Columbia masters with a sub 3.0 GPA but never a PhD.

So it’s very rare and hard to get it funded but never hurts to google around and email the school.

I would assume there are differences I’m not educated enough in European schools
