Hi All,
Sorry, it's been a long time. Jut got a message from an applicant for the same program at the Willy Brandt School. It's crazy to think that it's been two years.
I actually turned down the offer and DAAD scholarship at Willy Brandt in 2018. I almost went to LSE but then got a really great accounting job and really great compensation package that I could not turn down. So I decided to also turn down my admission offer at LSE and chose to stay in the US. It was perhaps the best decision that I had made. A year later, I decided to enroll in a finance graduate program at the Harvard Extension school from Harvard University. I am taking all my courses online. And yes, you can complete almost an entire graduate degree online at Harvard University. For my case, I will only take two courses on campus in Cambridge, MA. I am not done yet because I have been doing it part time and paying tuition out of pocket instead of taking out student loan. Nonetheless, I am almost there. Keep it up!
