Congratulations! So there's a solid U.S. program with some panache in Italy. From what limited knowledge I have, Purdue is a great school for quant; for example, it's known in the U.S. as one of the top schools for engineers, techies and the like.
Are you going to accept?
By the way, to any who may be curious--if any of you are--I may not pursue a PhD in 2008. My primary goal has been to get on the tenure track somewhere, even at a small college if necessary (I'm not TT at my current institution), and I've been hunting for such a job. I'm starting to get a little interest expressed from some of the many MANY apps I've sent out (approaching 60); first interview was scheduled this week, so I'm excited. If I can get on TT, I might be able to find a way to get this done without the PhD at this time, perhaps just waiting and pursuing it later if necessary. Wish me luck!
