<p>So I've been accepted to both SIS and the Elliot School but SIS has offerred me a full fellowship whereas GWU has nothing for me. Which should I choose?</p>
<p>Basically, is GWU Elliot Schol better enough than AU SIS to warrant giving up a free ride?</p>
<p>If I may ask, did you apply regular decision?</p>
<p>GWU > AU for Int Affairs. Hands down. Now is it better enough to spend $45k extra? ehhh, that’s up to you, really.</p>
<p>I’m assuming we’re talking grad school here? Elliott and SIS are very close in prestige for grad, with GW a bit ahead (Inside the Ivory Tower has GW ranked 7th, American 8th), so you’ll have to decide whether that small difference is worth the $$.</p>
<p>@adventuregirl - Yes, it was regular decision.
@keabie - Correct, grad school. Thanks for the info. It’s kind of a moot point now; got into Georgetown for the MSFS which Inside the Ivory Tower (thanks for that source by the way) ranked as top two. I’ll live in student debt for the rest of my life for a top two if I have to.</p>
<p>Cheers all.</p>
<p>You can’t beat SFS at Georgetown (undergrad or grad). Congratulations!!!</p>
