Hi everyone,
I've been admitted to Stanford's POLS program within the GSE for Fall 2015. Award packages came out yesterday and I received no aid from the university which has left me feeling very conflicted. My background for the past several years has been in an international nonprofit setting where my income has been modest at best. I'm worried that taking on all this debt will not outweigh the benefits of having attended Stanford. Although I'm aware each individual case is different, I'd love it if some of you could weigh in on this issue, especially if you know someone (or are yourself!) in the same situation.
Thanks.
