I was going to start writing emails to the advisers I am interested in working with for Fall 2016. I know the obvious structure/tips on writing this introduction emails and asking if they are accepting students.
HOWEVER. My undergraduate adviser and a few graduate students have told me to always keep these emails at 3 sentences or less, or the potential adviser won't even read them. Yet, when I looked up information on sending these emails, all of the examples/suggestions were more like 3 paragraphs.
Any feedback on this?
