I had initially secured $5k a year. They increased it to $15k a year. Over and above this scholarship, Harris would cost another $100k (tuition + living) . I'm really not sure if it worth so much for a policy degree for an international student. What do you all think?

You need to understand that each applicant is competing for a limited number of seats, in that sense each SOP is a unique recipe for success. In my opinion, no one will be comfortable sharing their SOP. Instead, you could ask for tips and advice on writing a good statement, but not the SOP itself.

Yeah, and these "batches" may continue up to June. I'll be happy if anyone can tell me what these batches are.

I have got an offer from The Graduate Institute Geneva with Full scholarship and living expenses for Masters in Development Studies. So I need to make a call soon. I'm not sure about funding in LKY. Maybe others in the group can comment.

Do you guys think that there will be more offers with full scholarship? I have other colleges deadlines to accept and I don't know what these "batches" of offers are supposed to mean. So, your inputs will come handy to me.

Hello all, I got accepted to MDEV with full scholarship and living expenses. I have also been accepted to Sciences Po for MPP with the Emile Boutmy Scholarship. Which one would you guys have preferred? (I am looking for a Quantitative backed course with a decent job prospect)

Thanks @Cookiz I'm very happy to have heard from an alumni. As you suggested, I shall talk to someone who has done the program to know their inputs on employment and doing a PhD at US University.

I heard about the Emile Boutmy Scholarship at the end of first week of February.

Hello all, I too have a very similar choice to make as @VeryCheesey. However I got accepted to MPP programs in Harris School of Public Policy, University of Chicago and MPA at London School of Economics and Political Science. Cost of the degree is the most important aspect for me, however, I am also tempted to give into the brands of LSE and Harris. Both would cost around $120,000 USD (Tuition+Living). I am from India and it is a huge burden to carry. However, with Sciences Po awarded me the Emile-Boutmy Scholarship, which covers 10,000 EUR (Out of 14,000 EUR) a year. There are also other scholarships which would award stipend to live in Paris. I would love it if you all offer some advice to me vis-a-vis employment opportunities, prospects of doing a PhD in a good American university post the Masters and so on. @CFGauß @ExponentialDecay

I'm from India and I got a call yesterday. Got a little funding. So my guess too is that they are calling people who got scholarships.
