Besides, a PhD costs at least $100,000 during the entire 4 years duration. -Brass

Getting a PhD offer is first very difficult, particularly if you also need funding and secondly its a death trap. You can't get the visa and at the same time you can't back off because of the lucrative offer. I was offered my funding in February and since then, I am struggling. I can't even...

This is how they play with our sentiments. The so called civilized and developed world completely corroded with hypocrisy from within. Anyway, the adviser apologizes for not knowing that I can't start other than September 2014 or January 2015. The admissions department has offered me 1 Jan, 1...
