Hmm doesn’t seem so in my case?

Me too unfortunately! (But congrats on your acceptances). Would agree on MSFS if that’s your focus for studies. Jumping on top of this to add mine in and try to steal some of your feedback haha. Trying to layer in - quality of program and focus, alumni, job recruiters into program, prestige of institution. From Canada, so big brand US names mean a lot versus smaller program that may be excellent: - Yale Jackson MA - full ride - Columbia SIPA MIA - full ride and Fellowship program - Princeton SPIA MPA - 80% funding - Chicago and Georgetown MPP - some funding
