收到GWU MSA 1/2 offer

I didn't make my decision either. I got another much less famous university's full tuition waiver which is very attemping to me.

I got a call from the Macc department and she said I need to submit 2 years' money financial certificate which is about 70,000 , or I need to find a sponsor, who is able to show $36000.

Because I am now in us, the deadline for me to submite the finantial certificate is 1st August. But for those who are not in US, the deadline is some time in April. You need to check with the dept. about this issue.  However, maybe you can waite, because usually the dept will contact you directely when they find out your finacial certificate has some problem.

thanks.

Now I am very confused on which school to choose!

icrystal,I noticed that it will take about $84000 to complete GUW MBA ,although I got a half tuition waiver(about $24000),the cost for me is a very huge burden.I heard that some Chinese MBA candidates could get some kinds of scholarship in the second year ,with the intern salary or extracuriculum job ,to finance themselves.so I wanna what is the sum I need prepare at least,I will prepare for the worst  living and studying condition!Hope to get your advice and info from us! thanks!

I myself am not sure about the living expense of D.C. I am now living in another big city near DC, the living expense is about $500-600 per month for me. I believe it can be much higher for DC area, mainly because of the housing there.
You can try to get loan from the university, and there are both on campus and off campus part time job opportunities. If you can find such a job, usually you can earn yourself living expenses by working 2-3 hours a day ( this is the case in our university, I am not sure about GW). So if you have enough money for the tuitions, living expenses can not be a big problem? But I am not sure about this. I also hope somebody can give better advice.
It seems to me, in US it is not difficult to make a living. In our university, there are a lot of part time opportunities(in liabrary, gym,labs etc.), which are some kind of need-based, because RAs and TAs are not qualified for those positions. The most important thing is that your can learn what you need.
