MPP - Harvard Kennedy School - Worth it?

[ax12]

As someone who is considering applying next year could anyone be so kind to provide this information for me: 

 

What are the employment prospects (realistically) for an MPP at HKS? Do all go in to public sector or is there a healthy bunch that go to private? here is my concern, since the tuition is high, I am worried whether finding a high paying job will be a difficulty. Since the public sector usually pays low, I am worried if I should do this. 

 

I have a law degree from Canada and I am seriously weighing whether the HKS could be worth it in the long term (most immediately in terms of salary)

Hi ax12,

 

I'm a recently admitted HKS MPP student still in the decision process. This document may answer some of your questions -- HKS's 2013 Employment Outcomes: http://www.hks.harvard.edu/var/ezp_site/storage/fckeditor/file/pdfs/degree-programs/oca/employment_overview.pdf

 

Hope it helps!
