Hello all. Not sure if this is the most appropriate place on this site for this question but here goes... I am considering applying to HKS for the MC/MPA. My main concern (other than being accepted) is the time I will be away from home. I live in NYC and have three young children. I have been told by a coworker who graduated from HKS that he was able to cram his classes into a couple of days and spend the rest of the week with his family (and studying of course). I was wondering how feasible this is. If there are any MC/MPA graduates reading this your insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank You HH
