  1. I took a few classes at the Goldman School as an undergraduate. And for most of the classes, GSIs were only responsible for grading papers and exams. They sometimes held office hours when midterms/finals were approaching but I don't think they had to do any lectures/discussion sessions at all.
  2. I went to Cal for undergrad, and I can also assure you that being a GSI can indeed cover most of your tuitions.
  3. Hey, I am sorry I don't have an answer to your first question. They all speak German and stay in Berlin for work after graduation. But I know Hertie provides german courses for foreign students, so perhaps that would help you with getting an internship in Berlin. I also did some research about the exchange programmes offered by Hertie and you can apply for that after completing your first semester. Is Hertie your top choice btw? If you don't mind me asking, what are your other options?
  4. I submitted my application materials on 1/28 and got accepted via email on 3/2. Btw, I went to the states for my undergraduate degree and I didn't take the GRE. Thus, I don't think it matters that much as far as I'm concerned.
  5. Congrats on getting a tuition waiver as well! I am currently based in Asia/Europe and I actually went to uni in the states. All the people I know who went to Hertie loved it, and I have never heard one bad thing about the school. Like specifically they said the professors are really good at what they are doing and are top of their class in Europe. And you can have really close relationships with the professors given the size of the school. As for reputation overseas, my friend told me since it's in the GPPN, it means the school is basically on par with other great public policy schools around the globe.
  6. Yep, I only applied for Hertie. I've always wanted to live in Berlin and I've heard so many amazing things about the school from the alumni and friends who are in the public policy field. Thus, Hertie was an obvious choice for me.
  7. Hiya! I just got accepted to the MPP programme this afternoon with a 25% tuition waiver, and I am definitely gonna accept the offer. Just FYI, I turned in my application about a month ago but one of my referees didn't submit the letter of recommendation until last last monday. It'd be lovely to meet some fellow classmates here before school starts!
