Advice for Stanford IPS admitted students
KNA_policy replied to Caroline Goodson's topic in Decisions, Decisions
Seems like nobody ever replies here. Does it say anyting about the program? Maybe, less sense of community? -
Experience with admissions consultants for Harvard Kennedy MPP?
KNA_policy replied to renoir10's topic in Applications
I was also wondering about this? So no one here seems to use it? @renoir10 did you end up using anyone? What was your experience? -
I got conditionally accepted (need to complete a calculus course from any institution) to Columbia SIPA for MPA without any financial aid so far. I got the decision on March 16th and in it they said more information about cost and financial aid would be given in a few weeks. Still waiting! I want to pursue a Policy PhD after this. I am a 36 old Canadian (originally from Bangladesh but now a Canadian citizen), married (my wife is working too), have a 6 year old son, and have a house mortgage to pay. I have an MBA from Canada, do not have any previous student loans and have been working in the non-profit and academic research sectors for the past 7+ years. Is taking on student loan to pursue my dreams worth it at this stage? I am passionate about public policy and really want to join the academia. Thoughts? By the way, I got waitlisted for Georgetown MPP and rejected by Harvard for MPA2. Still waiting for a decision from Cornell CIPA for MPA.
