  1. @kd7432 hey there, I was curious as to whether you appealed for increased financial aid at Gtown! Also, I'm on a similar boat as you are (I read some of your other posts). I'm interested in economic development and am thinking pursuing a PhD in political science or economics afterwards. I'd love to see what your thoughts are
  2. Hi Everyone, I'll most likely be attending the MPP program at Gtown's McCourt School or MPA program at Columbia SIPA. Could anyone give me some insight on the differences and similarities of the two programs/schools? For reference, I'm very interested in industrial policy, human capital development, and economic development, and I have a Bachelors in Industrial and Labor Relations from Cornell. Thank you!!
  3. After realizing that I never delivered my official transcripts to Gtown more than a month after I submitted my application (particularly annoying b/c the portal doesn't make it very obvious if you have missing materials), I fiiiiinally got my decision! For those of you who were accepted, do you know how to check for financial aid? And does anyone know how generous the McCourt School is with their aid package? Thanks!
  4. Thanks @sp108 I finally got dat email out Alsooooo, this might be a dumb question as all the different kinds of financial aid are confusing me... But do stipends count as an award? And I'm guessing I can take screenshots of my financial award to provide as documentation for my award letters from other schools? Can someone correct me if I'm wrong hahaha
  5. @sp108 how did you go about asking for an appeal? For instance, did you go into detail about explaining your situation and why you need an appeal? I just have no idea what the email is supposed to read like x_ X Thanks!
  6. Hello guys! I also received my acceptance letter two weeks ago, but with no funding. Some of you guys have mentioned that it might be worth sending an email. Do any of you guys know what the protocol is in asking for grants and financial aid? I only got out of undergrad last spring and still have heaps of loans to payback :'( I appreciate any help I can get!!!!! I really hope to see everyone this Fall
