Not to confuse threads, but what is the Maxwell Mafia?

That's great to hear - thanks for sharing! I was also accepted to GSPP without funding so I'd love to hear more about how your colleague made this work. Do you know what type of job she had and how many hours per week she worked? I'm curious about the types of jobs that qualify students for a tuition discount and the hours required to get the discount and to make enough money to support yourself. Thanks again!

I know there is already a thread discussing policy memos but I have a question specific to the scope of the memo. I have a background in health policy research and I'm wondering how technical to get in the policy memos. Does anyone have a sense if it's better to write a broader, less technical memo (that's probably easier for most people to understand) or something that's probably more original but also more compliated? I'm really wondering who our audience is: should we write for a general audience or for someone well-versed in our policy topic?

Just want to check- most programs are not rolling admission, correct? Brandeis is the only program I've seen that has rolling admission. Are there any other big programs that are rolling?
