Got it! I am so stuck on deciding between the two, even after speaking with people at both schools. I haven't been able to visit either and won't be able to.

Thanks for the info! What do you mean by a target on your back?

That would honestly be great (talking about the pathways)! A lot of them seem pretty similar, so it's hard to make a decision between them.

Good point. Do you have thoughts on broad rankings for US foreign policy, while also considering that it's a broad field?

What about when including IR programs, like Elliott or SIPA?

What would you consider as the different tiers of schools?

Currently debating attending HKS MPP (International and Global Affairs) and Georgetown MSFS (Global Politics and Security) and would greatly appreciate insights into either program/how they compare between each other (I'm broadly interested in American foreign policy and grand strategy). I also got into Hopkins SAIS, Columbia SIPA, Tufts Fletcher, Stanford, and UChicago Harris, but am leaning towards HKS or Georgetown. Would also be interested in hearing if these programs are worth it over HKS or Georgetown. Money is not a concern.
