Don't give up if you receive zero or partial funding from the school you applied to. Ask questions about your application and explore options. Some departments may only fund PhD students, not MSc, or have limited funding for the current cycle. You might be able to upgrade your application to PhD for the next cycle or apply for funding for the second semester or year.
Consider presenting a statement of account to demonstrate your ability to fund your first year or explore campus jobs/assistantships to contribute to your funding. Additionally, look into loan options like Mpower, which can reflect as funding on your i20 and help with visa interviews. Discuss these possibilities with the graduate coordinator. Don't let partial funding discourage you – explore alternatives to make your education a reality.
