So I got admitted to a graduate program in Physics, and although I was interested in attending it, I was notified from them a few weeks ago that they're having severe funding issues in one of their research areas, which happens to be my main interest. Thus, I very likely don't want to go there.
However, I was interested in the school and surrounding area, so I decided to book a flight to visit their department tomorrow anyways.
However, I also was recently admitted to the Aerospace engineering program at that school. I happen to also be interested in AE in general, though not as much as Physics. One of the profs there recently contacted me about some upcoming projects he has. When we talked with each other, I told him I'll get back to him later since I wasn't sure yet if I wanted to attend. Honestly, I wasn't considering it too much since I really wanted to do Physics. But since I've gotten some more rejections and am not overly enthusiastic about the Physics schools I got admitted to, now I'm reconsidering that Aerospace offer. I contacted him, and he suggested we talk over the phone again
I was thinking that since both depts are at the same school, that I could visit both of them? Or would the Aerospace prof find me unreliable since he'll find out that I appear to have an interest in Physics also? And if they contact the Phys dept about this, then I can only imagine they'd be pretty unhappy as well. Or am I better off just not visiting the Aerospace dept or booking a separate flight to revisit the school to see just Aerospace that time?
