Job prospect? Not very good, at least in China. It all depends on what career path you are following. If you want to make a fortune, then MPA is not a good choice indeed.

$30000?

$30000 is good in NYC? That is not very encouraging. Anyway, if you want a job in NYC, I suggest you take a degree program at NYU, which is mainly focused on demestic issue of US.

the base amount is like that. the maxium is 80000 but you have to have experience right? I only have teaching experience of a year and a half.
NYU's tuition is too high I dont have the money. I am considering colleges at lower level like baruch college.
how about you

I was admitted by a MPA program in a US university.

Since you are in NYC, why don't pick some more lucrative career path like law or business? You are more likely to find a decent job with those degrees than with an MPA, I suppose.

congratulations!
I have thought of more profitable career but some other considerations come to my mind.
I major in English education in a very ordinary university and has worked for one year and a half as a teacher. NO paper. And Ive never learned economics and statistics. I am afraid it is more difficult to apply and study. I thought you applied for MBA or somthing.
I dont know how can I write my PS catering to the taste of professors and the papers that professors put on line is quite difficult to find. Have you tried www.paapply.com. I dont know which link is right to do research.
Do you have some experience or advice to share? I havnt written my PS and resume. Thank you!
