April 10th, huh? Since I hadn't heard anything I was assuming that I wasn't getting it, but faith keeps hope alive! Oh well. Good thing is now I don't have to worry about making a tough choice between grad schools. I was torn between SIS and SciencesPo (Pickering only lets you go to a US institution). SIS great school, but I didn't get into the program I wanted, instead I was accepted into a different program. One I am probably more qualified for but just wasn't as interested in. SciencesPo has got a great program though its a bit different than the programs I was applying to in the States (MPA vs. MA Intl Rel). However, from several conversations with FSOs it sounds like a great fit for the work I want to eventually do in the State Dept. Basically, applying to the Pickering and grad school landed me in different spot than I thought I would be in but one ultimately more exciting and challenging than I had envisioned. The application process: Just added stress or a beneficial process?
