Hi All,
With some deep contemplation and a lot of advice from everybody at TM, I have decided to go to Toronto for my MA. A lot of you suggested that I defer my admission from UTexas, Austin (PhD) so that I have a fallback after Toronto (in the case that I do not get accepted anywhere else for PhD next year). Now, how does such deferment work? Does my aid package also get defered? Most importantly, is it fair that I ask Austin to defer by telling them that I am going to do an MA? I would love to hear your views.
You all have been really helpful til now.
Thanks!
