  1. I realized I should add some more info! 1. I am not taking loans/fees into consideration when deciding. 2. I am interested in working internationally, especially with refugees. I would eventually like to be a Foreign Service Officer. 3. AU's program in Int'l Peace & Conflict Resolution. One of the selling points for me is its specific international focus especially with my career goals. 4. However, Georgetown has a concentration in Refugee and Humanitarian Studies.
  2. I was admitted to all 3 D.C. area school that offer a Conflict Resolution program, but I am having a really hard time deciding where I should enroll. . . American - I applied for the Master's International program (i.e. Peace Corps and Masters). Actually I applied for the International Affairs: Global Governance, Politics and Security program, but I received an email saying I would be a better fit for the CR program. AU was my first choice (after I was rejected from my original top choice) because I was really interested in the IR program I applied for. Now that I was admitted to their CR program AU is in line with the other 2 schools. Georgetown - Pretty straight forward 2 year program. I am leaning toward Georgetown because it is well known. George Mason - Applied through for the Master's Int'l program just like I did with AU. GMU is my 3rd choice, but recently I have been hearing that their CR program is more highly regarded then Georgetown. Is this true? Currently I am debating a couple of things. First, do I want to spend 2 years in the PC halfway through my program? If so, I would go to AU. However, I could always join the PC after school or forgo it all together even if I do enroll in AU. Second, should I chose a school based on name recognition and possible networking opportunities? If so, I will probably choose Georgetown. Does anyone have any advice on any of these program? Maybe experience or information about networking or career services? At the moment, career services and post-grad career opportunities are my main selling point. But any advice will be greatly appreciated!
  3. IRToni, Thank you for your help! I was getting very frustrated, but I finally figured it out! All I needed to do was use Chrome instead of Safari. I don't know why I didn't think of that 4 days ago!
  4. Hi everyone! This is sort of off topic, but I can't find any information/help anywhere else. I am applying for a Masters in Development for Fall 2014 and am having trouble uploading the required PDFs. When I click continue it says 500 Internal Server Error. I contacted the Institute and they told me to make sure the file names are short and without special character (they are) and the files are under 2MB (which they are). I tried uploading again with those requirements and it still is not working. Did anyone else run into this trouble? Or have any advice on how to fix it? Thank you!
