  1. So, SIPA told me they are reconsidering funding and that they are making decisions soon. Not super convinced that I'll be getting any dough, but for those still thinking of SIPA or not, there is hope. Now a decision between LBJ and SIPA. Lots of debt or not many opportunities?
  2. Best advice I'm going to give you right now: Peace Corps. I did it. I loved it. It's the best thing you will get in IDEV if that's what you want to do. It will open your horizon, and trust me two years is nothing, it goes by so fast. There is also a great NGO called One Acre Fund that works in Africa. Check them out. But Peace Corps is my vote.
  3. Hey there current SIPA students. Quick question regarding foreign language requirement. I'm american, with French and Hindi as my parents languages. What would you recommend that I use to pass the requirement? Would it look better for employment afterward if I were to have Hindi/Urdu on my CV or French? (I feel more comfortable with French) Thanks for help.
  4. Am I an idiot for wanting to go but not have gotten any funding?
  5. Got wait listed too. Curious if anyone got accepted, it would be great to hear from you. I feel like all AU did was wait list some and reject others. This makes my decision even harder as I have another program I got into wait longer. AU is cheaper, that's why I hesitate to go off the wait list.
  6. Hi @Northernlightgradcafe, I also applied and got into the SIPA Security policy program and saw your above statement that you got into the same one but you are turning it down. I'm curious of why and what reasons you would give someone like for turning it down. (I assume from the schools you listed that GW is where you will go)
  7. Know how you all feel. Pretty disappointing that I haven't heard back. Makes me not even want to go to AU if all they do is make you wait while you have good offers from other schools that I could say yes to. An extremely unfair that some have heard but not others, like some kind of popularity contest. I think by the end of this week we should hear.....
  8. Hi everyone, Anyone else still waiting to hear back from AU? Got an email from someone at the admissions office that they are still reviewing files and will hear back by the end of March! Ugh! Who else is waiting?
