THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I'll be applying as an international student. As such, I have some remaining questions: 1) Around minute 2, you talked about the cost of living related to some universities. It'd be AMAZING for us, as international students, to have a better understanding of cost of living associated with some Unis in the US (i.e, location, cost of living). 2) It is really hard to understand the payment model sometimes. Here in Brazil we don't divide payments according to seasons or terms. Hence, we usually talk about income in a monthly (12) basis. When a Uni says "it covers the academic year", then what months are implied? 3) You've also gave advice on not going to more expensive cities. But isn't there an interplay in terms of how big a city/uni is and its capacity to provide funding? Once more: THANK YOU for such a detailed video!
Cost living vary greatly from city to city, but the good news is that MANY top universities are located in small towns (Cornell, Virginia, Brown, etc.) which enables students to have a better quality of life. Unfortunately funding does not always adjust to the cost of living in a certain city, this is why it's always a good idea to carefully consider your options!
Is gre important ? If yes? Then is mid of September a right time to give the standardized tests? Please help. I have research experience and seminar representation certificates with me but not a publication. Will that be a barrier if i dont score well in GRE?
