Hey gradcafe,
Admissions decisions are coming out. I remember when I applied that I appreciated those threads where current students at various programs fielded questions from prospective ones.
I'm a SAIS MA student in DC, no firsthand experience with either the Bologna or Nanjing programs. I do have friends in those cohorts, however, and could offer slivers of insight.
Happy to answer any questions you may have as you think through your decision.
