WL for funding, have declined; 7a/6r/2p

"At this time we are not able to offer you financial assistance for the academic year 2020-2021. If you enter our Economics Doctoral Program without a first-year fellowship, you can apply for financial assistance for your second and later years. We make every effort to provide financial support beyond the first year for all students who are progressing satisfactorily in the program. In recent years, all students proceeding satisfactorily in the program have, in fact, been supported in one form or another from the second through the fourth year of their studies in our program and significantly more than half have been supported through their fifth year. " lol, will decline
