    SIPA (Columbia) Thread

    in Government Affairs Forum

    Posted

    As far as I know from former Fulbright grantees, Korbel is one of the best schools for Human Rights studies...Honestly. If this is your area of interest, then you did the right thing. It's not all about the name. I didn't apply to SAIS, Princeton or Georgetown because although they are quite good, my focus is more on media development and these schools are not in line with my background and career goals.

    Good luck, Raayah!

    OH thanks Madrilena25 you've instantly made me feel better again :) :) CONGRATS and very very good luck to u!!

    Columbia's MA in Human Rights Studies (it is no longer an LSMA) is very flexible, and the profs are fantastic :)

    Between AU SIS's MA in Ethics, Peace and Global Affairs, Korbels MA in Intl Human Rights and Columbias MA in Human Rights.... recommendations/suggestions for which is the best choice for human rights??

    I'm in the same boat you are. I luckily received a $12K scholarship from the Korbel School, but that merely makes it roughly the same price as SIS.

    Given the fact that I applied to the US FP program at SIS and that my intention is to get into a career in Int'l Relations, I am likely going to choose SIS.

    I guess it would depend on your program. For instance, I know that Denver has a tremendous Human Rights program and if that were my interest, I would chose them.

    Thanks Slopo! Yup.. its is for human rights and right now inclining big time towards Korbel. Although still waiting for first choice SIPA to send in decisions... guess it will be between SIPA and Korbel..

    Whatever. I'm abnormal, crazy pants, borderline catatonic, whatever you wanna call me. Alls I know is I wanna go to SIPA and this ambiguity is killing me. My stomach was doing somersaults last night waiting until my projected second batch release time (freaking 1:00am) and then forcing myself to refresh one more time before passing out at 1:30. My body is so done with this week, having to juggle work and grad school anxiety. I am hoping and praying that all of us hear back from SIPA tomorrow, that we all get in, that we all get fully funded plus stipend and that when we do waltz onto campus, we all celebrate because all that refreshing paid off.

    hehehe I second that!!! ALL THE BEST EVERYONE! :D

    Thanks Charlotte! :)

    Just throwing in a question to the forum...wondering if this is the right thread.. but please direct me to another if it doesn't suit here..

    Given the option between Josef Korbel School of International Affairs (Uni of Denver) and American SIS ... any ideas on which would be the better option and why? (not considering the funding here.. just the program and state) ...

    any help would be appreciated!
