  1. thanks can-bra. i've already declined anu's offer though as the extra step of graduate diploma in order to get a masters later did not seem to lucrative. i'm going to start my masters right away at melbourne. thanks for all the input you guys. it for sure helped.
  2. 8am: Thanks eh. I had no clue this 'gumtree' existed. Very nice and useful of you! fluttering: re: expo 86 vancouver - you got it!
  3. fluttering, you've been a good sport. thanks, you friendly stranger.
  4. i think i'm pretty blinded by the excitement of going to melbuorne right now. and i actually like programs that i'm kind of a guinea pig for. it gives you more freedom from conformity to something that has a setup that has been fortified over years. and i haven't been to australia yet. and i've always lived in the city - the country town-ness of canberra isn't exactly appealing. and melbourne, i've been told, is like vancouver - my home town - in many ways. don't get me wrong, i understand that the quality of education is probably higher at ANU - and that is naturally a priority. but melbourne's doesn't seem too bad in comparison either. and i believe they should both be good schools in terms of potential job prospects after. decisions, decisions...indeed. though, for now, i think i'm going to go for melbuorne.
  5. thanks for your input, fluttering! ANU offered me a place in their Graduate Diploma in IR first and after I finish that in a year with at least 70%, then I'm supposed to move on to just one semester of the Masters and end up with a Masters degree. The process seems a bit tedious and I have been told that the graduate diploma is basically another year of undergrad - which i already have 4 years of. melbourne is going to be a little more expensive and about 6 months longer, but i think that's where i'm going to end up going. as much as i tried to ignore the allure of the city before, i think it definitely played a part in sucking me in...
  6. Hey guys, I am Canadian and I applied to some grad schools in Australia. Australian National University and University or Melbourne offered me admission to their Master of International Affairs programs. I can't decide where to go. I've heard that ANU is located in a very sad city when compared to the vibrant Melbourne. But ANU consistently ranks higher than all Australian universities. I want to base my decision on the international reputation of the schools and potential international job prospects upon graduation. Any two cents that any one of you can offer on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
