این ایمیل رو اینجا می ذارم، البته نظرخواهی خاصی در موردش ندارم (مال استاد دانشگاه نواداست که فاندش رو بازم بهم نداد!) فقط خواستم دوستان در جریان باشند. به نظر می رسه ایرانی بودن ما هم یه جورایی بی تاثیر نیست در نگرفتن فاندها یه وقتایی...
Dear Pejman ,
Yes, I would be happy to answer your questions. Let me answer them together.
Generally speaking, if you were to come here based on a self-support I-20, you probably have a higher chance of finding an RA. The reason is that many faculty often have funds at short notice and are looking for an RA who can start immediately. Of course I cannot guarantee that would happen in your case, but based on my experience students who are already here definitely have an advantage. Another reason is that (especially for Iranian students who may have visa issues) faculty may be wary of making an offer to someone who may not be able to make it here in the end.
regards,
