Hi guys, I just received a admission from UGA MPA program. I see UGA MPA ranks 4th in usnews and tuition is relatively low, but there are little information about this program in the forums. Does anyone have any idea about this program? Actually, I am in GSPIA MPA program now and still waiting for the decision of USC price MPP program. Do you think this program of UGA is far better than GSPIA.? I feel GSPIA PA program is more international oriented because of its decent related IA program, which could be a benefit to a international student, but GSPIA just ranks 33th in public affairs ranking of usnews.
Hope you could give me some suggestions~thx~

The US News rankings aren't worth a penny. They don't factor in international affairs and they differ markedly from actual perceptions of the top programs. Schools like SAIS (where I went) are disadvantaged because they are IR focused and I don't think Tufts Fletcher is even in the rankings.
Anyone basing their applications on US News rankings is in for a shock once they hit the job market. The US News Politics and International Affairs rankings are more accurate for international affairs schools.
NPR thanks for your reply~ but since I can hardly find other evaluation standard, I feel hard to identify which one is better. Is there any evaluation system I can refer to?

Hi everyone, I am an international student who applies to PP/PA program and I get ADs from MPP@UCI, MPA@UPITTS .
MPP program of UCI is new and interdiscipline program, within social science college and social ecology college and its cohort is smaller. MPA program at Upitts belongs to GSPIA. It is older but it seems to go way down these years.
California is great place with good climate, but I do not know if I can find internship or jobs in loal or LA. Pittsburgh is near to DC or NY and it seems to have more internship chances since there are more NGOs or NPOs.
Any help really appreciated.
Looking for suggestion, MPA/MPP 2014spring
