I need to decide what I'm doing for next fall. I received a renewal of my BICB traineeship, but am not going to be working with my "current" adviser next fall, so I let it expire. This means I'm crossing my fingers, toes, and hair for a TA position, although I was told it was "highly unlikely" that I'd receive one.
My options:
1. Get a TA position and continue school in the fall
-Decide whether to do a Ph.D. or a masters
2. Take out loans and push hard to finish a masters
3. Get a "real" job
4. Get an internship and work on a masters
In any case, it doesn't look like I'll be getting a Ph.D. unless I can find another adviser at the U that is willing to fund me. *sigh*
I need to go meet with a department adviser to give them my options. Maybe they can provide some real advice, or at least change my enrolled program to Master's. Otherwise, I am going to need to take the Ph.D. qualifying written exams (I posted about this previously).
Gotta get this figured out soon, it's already the end of July.
