IHEID

[Gradschool22]

Hello everybody,

I am currently working on my application for the my MA in IR for the fall of 2016, and I just had a couple of questions about the process. How competitive is IHEID? I am 21 years old currently studying in the USA. I will be graduating with a bachelors is Political Science: International Relations in May and originally wanted to apply for Masters in International Law, but after speaking with the school, I was informed that I might not even get accepted given that I have no experience in that field at all. 

What are my chances of getting accepted into the IR program? My grades are good (average of B), I speak 4 languages and have lived in several countries given that my dad was a missionary. I am also a European citizen who gets funding from my government, which means that I wont be needing a scholarship. I am working on my personal essay now, but I just wanted some feedback from the people who got accepted on what it took to get accepted.
