SAIS

Hi,

 

I will be applying this fall for graduate study in International development. Based on the research that I have done on this forum, SAIS IDEV seems command a good reputation. Though I have some questions regarding the program:

 

1. Why is the program capped at 40-50 students? (Unlike other concentrations at SAIS)

 

2. Does one get a leg up in finding a job in development consulting, WB, IFC, if you are from the IDEV concentration?

 

thanks in advance.

I can only guess that  IDEV concentration admissions looks for people with international experience and prior development work experience, limiting the number of students . Of course, you will come across rare cases that straight out of undergrad people getting admitted to IDEV.

 

Perhaps a current SAIS student might be better placed to dole out any advise.
