Well, here in Scandinavia (including recently highlighted Iceland) you will
indeed need to cross every t with the formal requirements, but we used to
have nearly universal funding for PhDs, while some of the other schools
will cost you, which may not be an option if you downsized your budget! I
have already expressed the opinion that, if it is going to be real
research, you will have to pit your ideas and ideals against the "system",
so most schools will look the same. Alternatively, don't ask us, find the
Stanford prof you will love to love and get on his good side!
