Can I accept multiple grad school offers?

Is it bad to only apply to two grad schools?

Deciding that you want to go to grad school is the first step in a rather lengthy and daunting process.

Can I change my mind after accepting a grad school offer?

How do you negotiate a graduate stipend?

How do I ask for more money grad school?

Grad schools don’t have to give you anything, so before making any requests, make sure your letter begins by establishing how grateful you are for the money a school has already given to you. You’re more likely to get what you want if you ask kindly and show appreciation for a school’s generosity.

How many graduate schemes should I apply for?
