It would depend on the school and the aid package offered, but the Maxwell school is excellent, and a full-ride, especially this year, is phenomenal.
I would take Maxwell on 95/100 occasions.
I would think very, very seriously about taking on any debt when you have a full-ride.
Keep your fingers crossed for Harvard and others though!

A HKS magazine just arrived in the post, and that has not helped my anxiety and impatience ???.

I'm one more hour away from moving to a cave in the woods.

Hi guys, just wondering if we should expect to hear back from JHU before the 5th of March? The suspense is killing me ?
Thank you for introducing additional stress into my life ????

Gotchya. Well, 10K per year is still nothing to sneeze at, but I get what you're saying. The sticker price for these programs is incredibly high.
Incredibly grateful of course! We just all have to see what decision makes the most sense for them. I still have 4 schools to come back, but the sticker prices on those are even higher... If I could get my GWU funding to match my American funding, it would be a compelling option for sure. I like GWU and the location cannot be beat! But debt is a concern...

For those who received admissions offers last week, when and where did you find out about financial aid? If it was supposed to come in that original offer, I guess I didn't get any.
Mine came through this evening in an email.

In for SPS, 10k a year.
I'm not sure the financial aid offered is enough for me to make it work, but I might negotiate with offers elsewhere. Still happy given it isn't their flagship program.

Elliott funding just arrived for me!

Love getting promotion emails from a school I didn't apply to at 5pm... ?

Any news on GWU funding? Still waiting for any info from the Elliott School
-
Are we supposed to tweet this stuff out? ?
-
Is anyone checking the portals, or just waiting for an email?
I don't have the strength to look ?

Looks like some Maxwell results are out too, according to the results page. Congrats on your Wagner acceptance!

I know many of us have still to hear back from a few schools, but I'm excited to hear how those who have a few offers are getting on. What are you thinking?
Given the pandemic and all, I think it is a pretty awesome achievement to get in anywhere, let alone with funding!
How are your MPA/IR/Environment options looking so far?

I received 34k from American, but I may end up declining so hopefully the aid will go to others. I just received full tuition at GWU Elliott for a fellowship I applied for separately from my application. I might try to negotiate with American.
Huge congratulations! That is amazing news! Congratulations on your success with your GWU fellowship too - you are in a fantastic position!

I was accepted into GW today. No funding info. I actually talked to an admission rep, and she said funding should be sent out soon.
How soon?
-
Also no funding info in my email!

On the menu today then... Maybe some Georgetown news? And maybe more CPL/Fellowship type news from Harvard?
I think next week will be more exciting.

What was it like? Congratulations! It sounds like a really positive experience - and regardless of whether you get it, it is something to remember!
