@ellien575 Hi! I cannot thank you enough for all your thoughtful responses, they really help me so much!
I have recently been admitted to MSCAPP and now am preparing for the scholarship reconsideration application. Meanwhile, I was reading many reviews and comments about the MSCAPP and especially Harris School of Public Policy, and the perspectives on Harris were not very positive (mostly on Reddit though). I also received a merit scholarship that is probably not able to allow me to attend the school financially unless I can take large loans. I'm an international student and I really like MSCAPP (very suitable for my interests and skills) but the tuition is too high for me. If I choose to take loans, I am honestly very uncertain about the job prospects and incomes after the program regarding the repayment (I want to do data tasks in NGO jobs but, to pay loans faster, I will need to join the private industries).
My question is that, do you know what to do if the reconsidered scholarship does not increase very much? I have tried to apply for third-party funding options too but they are really hard . Moreover, if you happen to know, did all the students who graduated from MSCAPP secure decent jobs?
Thank you very much! I appreciate any of your thoughts.
