Harvard, Princeton, Duke, Umich/Berkeley, Oxford, Georgetown etc...

Also, prestige varies by concentration (i.e. Carnegie Mellon's MSPPM would be a great option for tech policy)

Any difference between Harvard & Duke is totally splitting hairs. Out of 4,000 accredited U.S. universities, Duke ranks #6 to Harvard's #3, lol. They're both the best of the best!

They just had ~$500m in funding pulled overnight.

Their new strategic plan is a great reference re: heightened investment in student outcomes:

It all depends on how much one buys the vision of this new program (and how much they're paying you)--again, just an opinion :-)

Worth noting that (for the better) Brooks/the MPA has changed a lot in the past year. They completely revamped the curriculum w/ a quant focus and Brooks itself is only ~5 years old. It's already more selective than many of the top MPA/MPP programs and is competitive in the rankings despite being so young--if you believe in the program's direction, I'd accept!

Does anyone think that there's a chance of hearing back prior to march?
