I don't know if you're interested in working in the nonprofit world, but I've been working for one in DC for the past 3 years and it's more about who you know and connections then where your degree came from. If you spend your time wisely in DC I don't see how you would be at a disadvantage, but that's just from a nonprofit standpoint, I don't know about government jobs.
Anyone know anything about the program or about Boston University department of IR in general? I just got accepted and am wondering what people think about it.
