Should I accept a fully funded PhD offer from a top university which I don't like?

E

Did you decide yet? :)

Agreed, do not decline an offer if you have nothing concrete! (unless you don't want to do the project in the first place, that is).

Hi everyone,

I am kinda in the same situation but the offer that is still "in the air" is from the prestigious group. I want to stay with them but as they still do not know if they will be able to pay me I have thought of trying what I've got for sure. However, I am worried about giving the money back if I regret and want to quit. I have been looking for it all around but was not able to find it out. Are you sure I will not have to return the money ? Even though I would not have any other offer eventually, I would like to know anyways. I think it's fair to know right? At the end, it is a job like any other you can love it or hate it… And it is not just because of the job on itself, I don't how I would od it emotionally… Thanks
