Neither of those schools have exceedingly great national reputations, though there is of course some variation in top schools within individual sub-fields.

That's the kind of thing I was looking for! Thanks, Jeffrey, I owe you two!

There are tons of people in Seattle willing to take foreign students, the UW would probably even help place you if you got in contact with them, but I am not 100% certain on that.

No problem. And looking a bit closer, it seems that Oregon is a Top 15 program for linguistics after all. Santa Barbara doesn't seem to be top tier within the University of California system though. I'm not sure how widespread the field is - I'm pretty sure we don't have a program at my university, for example.

I'll take that into account

Really? I'd have imagined Santa Barbara fared better, though I had never heard of it until very recently. Anyway, it's just a possibility, and I'm doing some research because my advisor mentioned that could happen... let's wait and see what the future has to offer

Originally posted by Lira My advisor and I have been talking about a possible doctorate in the American West Coast. We've got contacts in the University or Oregon, and she also mentioned the UC Santa Barbara as an interesting place to pursue this degree. I'd like to know what these universities are like, and if there are any TA's studying in these universities. If things get more serious, I'll probably just go ahead and bug the locals, but I thought I'd turn to the CORe first. It's just a possibility anyway.

They pay for everything if you get admitted, by getting paid they mean working as a TA (part-time) or research assistant, you will not pay tuition and you will get paid to teach and/or do research or both.

We have a great physics program.

The weather here is great. Never gets colder than 40 degrees, rarely hotter than 100. We're usually in the mid 70's.

Great beaches, hiking trails.

I doubt that it matters if it is a top university in your field. It can be in the top 20 or 30 in the world and still be one hell of an accomplishment.
