Coming from: I have been working in housing both direct service and community organizing for 5 years. i'm looking to pivot to housing/ urban policy. I currently work full time in DC and have 2 AmeriCorps education awards.
Deciding Between: American University ($8,000 yr both years) and George Washington ($0, but would double my AmeriCorps awards)
Other Factors: They both seem like good programs. I got the impression there might more fellowship opportunities at GW with tuition tuition remission.
How I'm Leaning: I'm really torn. I'm still trying to see about more funding from GW. It's unclear which I would be able to get funding, fellowships, and other opportunities from.
