      Dr C. M. Bromstick 🧹, Dublin Retweeted Dr. Megan Kate Nelson is the co-host now

      Basically near about inapplicable to anyone studying in the UK or Ireland. Funding is so rarely granted prior to getting in, and your first and second and maybe even third years are plagued with funding applications to increasingly less money.https://twitter.com/megankatenelson/status/1231935955701051393 …

      As the PhD program admissions season is upon us, here's my totally unsolicited advice! Unless you have a trust fund: - Do not accept the invitation of any PhD program that does not give you full funding. - If no program offers you full funding, do not go to graduate school.

      And the internal stipends often do not cover 4 years (PhDs are 4 years here). Government funding can cover 4 years but not the full amount for intl students’ tuition per year anyway.

      Yeah I went into debt for the PhD but I knew it was a possibility. It sucks. But idek I also hate the idea of telling people just not to go to grad school otherwise. I have a lot of complicated feelings on advice like this.

      Again, the advice for grad students on here is so skewed towards America. Funding is better in the US and Canada generally compared to the UK and Ireland. Continental Europe is also better but there are other restrictions (like choice in project).

      And again I and I suspect many others in the midst of doing their PhDs feel kinda foolish for doing grad school when advice like this goes around.

          I feel for the prospective grad students who are lied to about availability of funding. It sucks, because it happens a lot. But I was discouraged heavily from doing a PhD throughout the undergrad by professors and other grad students at my uni in Canada.

          And tbh it felt like shit to hear that. I didn’t want to do anything else, despite the job risks and debt. And while I incurred a lot of debt, Canada’s loan system isn’t so bad, compared to America anyway.

          They don’t do loans in Ireland so if you can’t afford it (as an Irish or EU student) then...people leave. It sucks.

          But tbqh telling people that on LUI go if you get full funding or if you’re rich means that probably nothing will change, because there will be so few grad students to affect change (and tbh it’s hard to organize as is).

          And then academia will remain a heavily elitist situation. We need to advocate for more funding from governments and institutions. We have to organize at a massive level.
