I am an international student. My research area is Commutative Algebra. I hope I could ask for your opinion on my situation.
I recently got admitted to University of Utah. This is a big school and I had previous contact with a professor here. It is such an early, but very good offer that I do not know if I should accept it right now. I applied for about 15 programs and Utah is just the second one who responded. To be totally honest, University of Purdue is more of my liking, although I have not previous contact with anyone here, so I may get rejected.
I want to ask, should I wait for other universities? I really do not want to seem like an arrogant candidate and definitely do not want to disappoint my professor in Utah. Thank yoy for your help.
