An interesting offer, I need some advice.
#1
Hi all,

I received an interesting offer from my wife's mentor. My wife is a Chinese citizen and completing her second masters in the United States, she has just recently completed her first masters at her home university in China. Her mentor offered me a full ride scholarship to a good Chinese university; this includes living costs (apartment, bills, food, spending money, etc), full education coverage including books, moving costs, etc. It's a university in the far north (I won't mention the exact university since I don't know whether or not I was supposed to), and they offer some pretty amazing benefits to get some students up there every year. The offer is to complete a masters degree in Chinese language. I'll have my bachelors in Business Admin (TESC) very soon, and they've already promised me acceptance into this program. The program is 3 years long and teaches Chinese from the very basic levels to advanced levels. I guess I should add in that this university is accredited by US standards (my wife's degrees were accepted when she transferred here).

The only downsides I can see to this program are delaying my career for 2-3 more years (I'm 25).

I know it may sound stupid for a total stranger to ask for you guys opinions, but I'm really kind of mixed on this proposition. What do you guys think?
