I've recently been thinking about getting an MPP degree. I was initially looking into law school but soon came to realize that public policy (specifically educational policy) is where my passion ultimately lies. However, I worry that my background will not be enough to gain admittance into most MPP programs.
Fast Facts:
Senior History Major from Creighton University (minors in political science and digital humanities)
3.6 major gpa, 3.38 total gpa
No GRE scores yet but practice tests indicate I will be above the minimum threshold
Limited Math and Econ Expierence
B+ in Micro junior year
Virtually no math experience since high school
Soft Skills
Leadership Position in Fraternity
Volunteered for local mayoral campaign
College Democrats
I realize this list is barebones, but I'm simply wondering if MPP programs will even show interest in me given my hard liberal arts focus and relatively weak econ/stats/math background. Any information you can provide would be extremely helpful as most of the departments and faculty here are clueless as to what MPP programs typically look for.
