Thank you for your response! My backup plan is to go back into consulting and make a career of it. My gut is definitely inclined to throw NU the deuces with hopes that this is just a sign that something greater is waiting for me; I am just torn in that I have been through so many obstacles in just getting here, only to feel that my access has been ultimately denied. I guess my real dilemma is truly reconciling everything, since I have wanted this more than anything, and I don't really want to give up until I know I have exhausted all of my options.
I will email you some details about another URM here who was able to negotiate for more money for the AJD program. I am sure she will be of great help.
Do you have any other offers on the table?

That would be great. I really appreciate it! And no, this is my only offer on the table so far....
