    I'm in the same boat too. Not 75K in loans but still significant. I'm probably going to take the plunge only because I'm doing a career pivot and I feel like getting good connections from a school with a better program will be a must. I'd rather take out loans and have more of a sure thing than be debt free but few post grad opportunities. Should also mention I'm part time so I plan on working to pay down loans while I attend.

    I swear admissions are just going through these forums and messing with us.

    This is thrilling -- I may just be refreshing my application portal all day, but it is good to hear that the decisions are starting to roll out!

    Yes, you can use it for as early as the summer (or so that is the earliest I known people to do so), but as I highlighted previously, career services is already severely strained as and its not like McCourt has strong relations with non tract job placement (like places you can zip in and out and not a formal recruiting process like consulting). You have an okay shot if it is jobs tied to Georgetown. However, good luck getting jobs outside of Georgetown because then you have to compete against the greater competitive DC interested career field. 
    Also, unless you are evening student, it is a terrible idea to work full time (or should I say more than 15 hours a week) as a full time student. That is how people lose scholarship and go below a 3.0 GPA. At the very least, you won't take advantage of your experience to network and explore new policy areas of interest. I know someone who worked full time was a full time student - hated his life every day and had blood shot eyes for sleeping 5 hours a day.

    This is mentally exhausting. I hope they're taking this time to put together some competitive financial aid packages...

    Honestly after a year of remote learning you would think the website would be stronger, noticed this with several schools I applied to.

    So response from admissions:  If you submitted your application by the February 1st priority deadline, you should be hearing back soon. 
    Very vague - really hoping for today!

    I've actually been looking for it and can't find it anywhere. Their website isn't very user-friendly and it seems they don't put much info out there for the public. Even finding simple program info wasn't easy.
