Want to have a PhD with full funding

[spacemonkey412]

Hi,

I want to have a PhD in Electrical Engineering in US.

Is there any grad school where an international student can get full funding with certainty?

Also, is there any grad school which does not cost me more than 15K annually in tuition fees and other related stuffs?

Thanks

Hi,

You apply and say you will need funding. Then they decide whether to accept or reject you, while also giving you information about the funding they choose to offer you (they will most likely include the tuition fees). Nothing else is certain.

****. That sucks. So there is no pattern there? Like almost all students applying for XYZ university got full funding etc. Thanks anyway.

If you are accepted without funding that is pretty much a rejection, in my opinion. When you receive an acceptance letter they will usually tell you your funding arrangement (if any at all).

for your question! Obtaining a PhD in Electrical Engineering in the US is a great goal to have. There are many graduate schools in the US that offer full funding to international students, but it is important to note that the competition for these opportunities can be quite high. It is also important to carefully research and consider the specific requirements and criteria for each program, as they may vary. Some universities also have specific scholarships or funding options available for international students, so be sure to explore those options as well.

As for the cost of tuition and related expenses, it is possible to find graduate programs that offer tuition waivers or stipends to cover these costs. Again, it is important to thoroughly research and compare different programs to find the best fit for your financial needs. Additionally, some universities offer assistantship or teaching opportunities that can also help offset the cost of tuition.

Overall, I recommend reaching out to universities directly to inquire about their specific funding options for international students. It may also be helpful to connect with current or former international students in your field of study to get a better understanding of their experiences and advice. Best of luck in your pursuit of a PhD!
