Further, individual departments at the university generally control funds. It always helps to write directly to the department to inquire about available funding. Students who are research oriented or have published papers in a particular field should contact professors interested in that field. By contacting professors in advance and building a relationship, you can greatly enhance your chance of getting aid. Unfortunately, there are many deserving students who do not get aid along with the admission. If you are one of them and plan on joining anyway, we strongly recommend you to make your statement in top 1%. Professors usually have funding available for various projects and you may be able to find something that matches your skill set. We also strongly recommend that you don’t restrict yourself to your particular department. There are several opportunities in other departments particularly for students with strong computer skills. You have to be aggressive and persistent in your approach. Always remember, if you don’t ask, you don’t get. 😀

We have produced a number of students who have received assistantships in several US/non-US universities before joining the school. With the continuous feedback from the past students over the years, we have found statement of purpose and recommendation letters play the significant role for getting scholarships and assistantships. If you are looking for a strong statement of purpose (probably top 1%) and recommendation letters, you can contact us as below: 😀
