Hi, everyone. I am an international student who have just finished high school. I try to get a deeper understanding about graduate admission process, especially about mathematics. I found there were many schools with financial aid, but some people told me that those money were not from university like when we applied to undergraduate level and got financial aid, they said that these aid came from professors (after you have been admitted to the university) who chose you for working with them on their projects and paid you for that. Is this true? Is this finacial aid on the website of university derived from professors? Thank you.
