Anyone from India heard for MPA I am sure you will make it, with or without the interview and as many have said not all applicants are interviewed so fingers crossed for you et al.

Thanks They called me about a month back and told me my profile fit the MPA program better, and asked if I wanted to apply for the MPA instead. No word on admission though. Point is, I think they would ask first before considering moving applicants to other programs.
Barns Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 How does the MPP program at LKY compared to the MIB program at the Fletcher School, in terms of jobs prospects. Fletcher with its Harvard Connection seems like a better choice, prima facie. Would appreciate a second opinion on this.

Strider1 Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) No information after the interview. I am not sure if we will hear anything this month as we learned that the interviews are still ongoing. What do you guys think? Edited March 22, 2019 by Strider1

Fletcher with its Harvard Connection seems like a better choice, prima facie. Would appreciate a second opinion on this. The LKY definitely has a strong record for employment outcomes amongst their graduates (90-ish% of MPP graduates land a job within their first year of graduation). However, much of the employed graduates end up working in Asia. If working in Asia is aligned to your career aspirations, I would suggest LKYSPP being the better option.

peculiarpat Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Hi Everyone, I submitted my application for MPP a week before the deadline, only received a mail indicating that a document was missing. I sent the document and got an acknowledgement. However, I didn't received any mail for interview. I am a Nigerian resident in the capital, Abuja. Have 9 years experience in advocacy targeted at influencing public policies in the areas of health, rights and equality. At present, I work as the Coordinator, Advocacy and Policy Influencing at Institute for Humanitarian Studies and Social Development. Marky1985 1

But then I see notifications from this thread via email and then I have a sore thumb from refreshing my Gmail account. ? I guess we all are in this together and let us keep cheering each other and as they say: No news is good news. So long! Repat Hopes 1

I haven't and, as many of you, are anxious about the answer. I have checked the brochure of the program in case of details about the acceptance rate, and found that the cohort is of 60 to 80 participants. Let's hope for the best to all of us! Greetings from Peru!
