I received a separate email with my financial aid decision a few days after my admissions decision notification. It did go into my spam folder though, unlike the other SAIS emails, so I would check there.

Hi everyone, I've been accepted to SIPA [MIA-EPD], Georgetown [MSFS in international development], and SAIS Washington [MA-IDEV], and I'm having a difficult time deciding between the three. I'm aware of the general pros and cons of the three schools in terms of size, strength of networks, etc., but I was wondering if anyone knew how their international development programs stacked up to one another? Any advice would be really appreciated. Also, I heard somewhere that students at SIPA have to apply/compete for course spots [complete with resumes, etc.] Can anyone back up/refute this claim? Thanks
