@ErickaSimone @nuvicks How close are you to getting your Masters? I don't know about Music but in Computer Science it's often possible to delay the start date of a PhD position like this.

@robinadams @nuvicks about a year away. Year and a half if I keep going slow. But it’s not far. And the masters program would only need another year for completion. It’s accessible but I know there’s someone better suited that already hit the reqs.

@ErickaSimone @nuvicks OK. That far away they'll probably say "If we don't find a suitable candidate this time we'll readvertise the post in 6 months and you can apply again then."

But it can't hurt to contact them and try. Leave it to them to decide if there's somebody more suitable.

And either way, good luck!

@ErickaSimone Yeah, unfortunately they don’t even look at applications without a complete Masters. 😕 thanks for sharing this though!

@nuvicks someone out there has the recs finished for this, and I hope they find you. Thank you for your incredible kindness.
