fersakynI found out yesterday that my department is cutting funding for ALL seventh-year graduate students. There are more students than there is funding. AGAIN.
When I sent out emails to other departments looking for funding as a TA, I was asked in return whether I had reached the maximum number of quarters for such funding.
What am I going to do?! I have no idea if I have reached the max limit for TAships. I emailed my program administrator to ask. She hasn't replied yet. I thought I wouldn't have to worry about this kind of thing until NEXT year, NOT this year.
Not only am I strapped for funding, but I am also still hoping to get a place in graduate housing. This is a nightmare. My whole life is filled to the brim with uncertainty right now. I am trying to move to somewhere cheaper only I may not be able to afford "cheaper" either if I don't get paid work. Ugh!
Sorry, Shals. Looks like I won't be able to visit you in England in September. I was really, really hoping to do that. *sigh*
