Hello to all. I need some advice. I applied for a MRes program and was unofficially accepted by two supervisors and the head of the department. I am currently waiting to hear from the admission office and get a formal offer from the university. Parallel to that, I was accepted to a taught Masters program and the semester starts next week. I much rather do the research but am afraid to lose the other option. So my question is: how sure can I be at this point that I will get the official offer from the university? If both the supervisors and the head of the department have accepted me and recommended me to receive a formal offer - can something still go wrong?
