We can certainly work at preventing that at the master's level.  <_<

I would seriously recommend to anyone to apply for opportunities like this.  I spent last summer doing research at Oxford University and I had the time of my life, met amazing people, and worked on an sweet project.  That's not to mention how much of a resume builder it is.  You have nothing to loose by applying.
