Prospective Student Visits: Lodging, Transportation, etc.

A professor writes in with some questions that arose during the recent season of graduate admissions. They write: How are departments putting up their prospective graduate students during visits? Are they housing them with current grad students? In a hotel? In a hotel with other prospective students? An AirBnB? With faculty? Making them figure it out themselves? To these questions we might add related ones about transportation: Are programs flying in prospective graduate students? Asking students to make their own transportation arrangements and then reimbursing them afterwards? Offering neither planning nor pecuniary travel assistance? And what about local travel? Comments and additional related questions welcome.The post Prospective Student Visits: Lodging, Transportation, etc. first appeared on Daily Nous.
