Thanks, it's really good to hear that. I assumed that the brand would matter in the private sector, and actually now even the public sector - that's how I've seen things evolve in India over the last few years. But quite reassuring to hear that the skills and knowledge rightfully take precedence.
My main concern is if it's a well known school in the policy sector in the US, Europe etc. I heard from some that it isn't but I don't know why. I really like the way that have structured the MALD curriculum and the flexibility that it provides. I'm also keen to understand about what tech companies think of Fletcher grads - because that's my interest area. But I guess that question can be answered by some alumni.
I received admission offers from UChicago (25 percent aid) and Tufts (40 percent aid). I'm a lawyer from India with 6 years of experience in law and about 3 years in the policy sector (at the cusp of IR and PP). I am keen to focus on technology policy but also to develop some basic quant skills.
Any thoughts on either of these schools? How do they compare against each other - especially in terms of employment post graduation? Is Tufts a good brand name?
I am also waitlisted at UC Berkeley for the MPP.
