GO FOR IT! I'm currently doing my MFA in Screenwriting and I love my program, although it can be very frustrating at times! If money is not the most prominent issue for you and you can adjust yourself to life as a grad student, then do it. Clearly, you have the passion, drive and motivation to succeed.

For two years, you'll be surrounded by like-minded individuals and challenged by your professors. I love that the programs you're looking at have the social justice/environmental aspect to them! Also, you can teach at the university level with an MFA, so maybe if you are interested in teaching at some point, you can teach something along the lines of 'creative non-fiction' and social justice. There's SO much that can be done in various fields of creative writing when it comes to putting social justice and environmental issues in the forefront. I think this could be a wonderful opportunity for you!

Good luck with whatever your decision may be! :)
