I guess that it's time to ignite this thread for this year's application cycle.
I'm applying to the MPP program at HKS, Harris, and GPPI. Earned by BA's in International relations and Economics in 2007. (3.4 GPA), spent 3 years in the Navy completing two combat deployments, discharged under DADT in 2011. Came to business school in 2011 (currently in my second year, graduating in May) with a 3.6 GPA. Decided that banks and consulting aren't for me and want to return to government service (specifically, my interest is in transportation infrastructure).
Submitted my application to HKS a couple of weeks ago and now playing the (long) waiting game.
