Of course. Our Admissions Office number is in my signature.
I don't really have a second language so I don't think I can get into Tufts.
I took the GRE today.
710Q:630V
total:1340
You tell me it is essential to get 1350+ and I get a 1340....amazing....Perhaps if I get a pretty good analytical writing score it will push me over the edge.
Korbel Student, thanks for the information. Could I give you a call if I want additional information.

Hello,
I am a current student at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies. If you are looking for a program with a strong focus in Int'l Trade and policy, I would highly suggest looking more closely at the GFTEI program. I am in the general International Studies program because I wanted a more general Masters degree but from what I know about GFTEI the students in that program are really happy with their choice to attend Korbel.
Denver in general is a very laid back town. There are a lot of things to do in the city, outside of the university (which was really important to me.) At Korbel, the staff and professors are very knowledgeable and willing to help students one on one. If you are concerned about funding and job prospects, you should know that Korbel has a very strong alumni network and there are several scholarship opportunities specifically for GFTEI students. I'm including a link below to the GFTEI page on the Korbel website. I encourage you to read the GFTEI student's blog and look a the types of courses offered.

Hope this helps!

Hello,
I wanted to offer some insight into the Josef Korbel School of International Studies. I am a current student studying International Studies with a regional focus on Russia and the former Soviet Union. First, I would like to say that there is a language component to all of our degrees. Students must display a fourth level proficiency in a foreign language (specifics can be found here).
As far as the location/reputation debate, I think that being in Denver gives our students a competitive edge. We receive a "beyond the beltway" perspective and can look at policy as a bigger picture, rather than be caught up in the details of what is currently the "it" issue in D.C. Also, our faculty and staff have experience in D.C. and the surrounding areas so we do not miss out (a recent example would be our new Dean former Ambassador Christopher Hill). If you want to study in D.C., we do have the DC semester program and all of our degree programs offer credit for internships, just in case you do not want to live in D.C. for an entire semester. Please take a look at our Top 10 Reasons to attend Korbel. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. By email: korbeladm@du.edu or
