HELP! MPP of Ford Michigan OR Luskin UCLA.

[mikaer111]

Hi all,

I just have been admitted by the MPP program of Michigan Ford School and Luskin of UCLA. I have no ideas about which school I should accept? Ford has a good academic reputation in Public Policy and lots of current students who have work experience. However, the class is bigger and Ann Anbor is a small city. . UCLA is a dream school for lots of students , because" work harder, party harder". And the LA is my love city. But Luskin School don't answer how big the class is and the current students' background. And It might not be as good as Ford in Public Policy.

Could someone give me some advice? Thanks.

I wouldn't pick a grad school for the party atmosphere. I'd pick Michigan, but then again I'm from the midwest and the Ford School was my #1 choice for an MPP. Unfortunately, I wasn't accepted there. Michigan is a great state and Ann Arbor is a pretty fun town for its size. I spent a summer there during undergrad and thoroughly enjoyed it.
