Harvard MPP and MPA2: Any real difference?

That's a nice thought! But I don't think I'll get my hopes up just yet.... -
Harvard MPP and MPA2: Any real difference?
user01 replied to Kaeru's topic in Government Affairs Forum
Hi all I applied to the MPP but just received an email asking whether I now want to be moved into the MPA2 pool on the basis of my work experience (5 years full-time) and study. I didn't ask to be considered for the MPA2 because I don't have Masters degree - just a Graduate Diploma in Economics - and didn't think that would be sufficient. I'm not sure what to do. I know the MPA2 program is more flexible - but I'm not sure if the MPA2 would be more difficult to get into, especially without a Masters. I know they take fewer MPA2 students, but perhaps they receive fewer applications for that program as well? The email seems to imply that if I opt for the MPA2 I will no longer be considered for the MPP (although I have sent an email to confirm that). Any thoughts/suggestions greatly appreciated.
