I was shocked to receive offers from Stanford's ICE program, Harvard's IEP program and Columbia's IED program, but now I'm having a hard time choosing between the three offers. I haven’t received financial packages from all the schools yet, so for now I'm just comparing the programs themselves. Are there any prospective/current/previous students out there who can offer pros & cons on these schools? Is anyone familiar with what each of the schools is strongest at/weakest at? Does anyone know the perceived value of an MA (Columbia/Stanford) vs a Ed.M (Harvard) in the job market? Thanks! Michael

Thanks Klaatu and OregonGal. I'm interested in education as a component of international development. I'll be applying to International Education programs and one or two International Relations programs, but I also want to have a back-up plan in case I don't get accepted. Unfortunately, most of the organizations I've come across require their interns to be in a MA program already. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, MDC

No current/past Fulbright ETAs stalking these forums, huh? Bummer.

Thanks a lot! Mikaer111- good luck with your application! MDC

Hello, Is it possible to apply to two masters programs at Columbia if the programs are at different schools within the University? IE: Can one apply to the International Education Program at TC and the Master of International Affairs at SIPA in the same year? Thanks, MDC

Hi Everyone, I'm currently a Fulbright ETA and I'm begining to think about next steps. I would love to hear what others have done or are thinking about doing after the grant period. Specifically: 1) For current grantees: What are your plans after the grant? For past grantees: What did you actually do after the grant? 2) How did include the Fulbright program in your Resume/CV? Thanks, Michael

Hi, I'm in California and just got my notification today . I was accepted to the ETA program in Malaysia. I'm not not the google doc yet but I'll follow up with details later (currently traveling for work). Michael

Exciting! Do we know if this is both ETA and Full Grants?

Thanks!

FYI to all Malaysia ETA folks. I email Jonathan on Monday asking if he knew when letters would go out. Sill no response. Anyone else want to give it a shot? -MDC
