GWU ED Scholly?
Posted: Wed Nov 14, 2018 4:01 pm
Need some advice--
I am considering PT Evening Programs in MD/DC. For a bunch of reasons I think GW is my best fit. They have a Binding Presidential Merit Scholarship (Full Tuition), but the BINDING part creeps me out.
(A) possible nightmare scenario is that I am accepted under the program and I am committed to GW but GT offers me decent $ too. I'm keeping my job so COA is only tuition/fees/books but 1/2 price at GT > free at GW in my opinion. Am I wrong? GT is probably the only school around here for whom I would be willing to borrow significantly to attend.
What are TLS's thoughts? Stats below if it matters.
-URM: AA male
-3.2 / 167 (one test, not retaking)
-10+ years w/e Federal Contracting with DOD
Thoughts from the TLS literati? Much appreciated
