收到GWU MSA 1/2 offer

甜橙

楼上这个贴的信息是最近的吗，我觉得400住公寓应该是不够的（只租中国人house的一间房可能够），我知道有个校友和人share一室一厅，而且她住的是厅，其室友住的是卧室，她也要付500（应该包括煤电）。我住的离学校很远，路上要花1个小时，虽然说是两室一厅，但是作为书房的那间很小，也要近1000，不包括电和煤气，电话当然也另算。而且便宜的公寓是不提供家私的，我搬进我现在的公寓时除了dinning room 和kitchen有灯外其他房间连灯都没有，就更别提凳子、桌子之类的。但是一年生活费总共要多少，我也没有算过，因为我是先到美国再考试申请的，没有想过生活费的问题。我想一个人至少要准备1000/月吧。不过最好还有别的人给你信息参考参考，因为我的情况有些不同，意见难免偏颇。

Hi Luingor,

I got the Ad in MSF. Currently, I am in Canada. I never wnt to Washington before, but the rent sounds like too cheap. I live in Montreal, which one of most city cheapest in NA. Even in montreal, the rent is around 500 CND/Month for a 1 bedroom appartment. I cheched the website of Chinese community in Washington before. I think 800-1000 USD /Month for a one BR appartment is reasonable there. If you share with another person, the rent manybe 400 - 500 /month.

If you want to find a part-time job, it is possible. In my experience, I don't think the professors will give you any trouble because you are not with any specific professor in a MBA program, which is course bases instead thesis based in all universities. However, it would be hard to have free time in the first year in a MBA program. There are tens of group/individual projects, reading reqirement, case analysis, and presentations. If you are a supper language master, you may have a chance.

I do not decide yet whether go there. It is extremly expensive program and place to live. It is not easy to find a position in IMF, if you have no connection or network there. Finding a good job in US more depend on who you know instead of what you can do.

Hi. 各位好。我等待GWU已久。前天发信给小秘询问申请情况。得到的回复是I assume you did not receive our admission letter. I am sorry.  To expedite the process I will send you a scanned version. do you have another account? the attachements bounce back.是不是表示她要我给她另外一个EMAIL地址。发Admission letter我呢？

我收到的信的附件一是declaration of intent要我complete and return this form no later than March 24^th, 2005.   A non-refundable  enrollment fee of $ 250 should be mailed this form. 这是押金吗？时间感觉好紧啊。

附件二是$ 600 per course的summer course请问这个需要选吗？

谢谢gleaebb。你申请的哪个专业呢？确定是录取我就开心了。只是觉得这保证金时间也太紧吧？是不是都是给十天的？

不过我的GT成绩都不高。所以现在真的很心满意足了。

我申请的是MSF。请问这个专业是一年还是两年？
