I was first admitted to SAIS Bologna and placed my deposit, but am revisiting that decision after getting into SIPA off the waitlist. I am interested in political risk for businesses, international institutions, and American foreign policy. Both schools seem to prepare students very well with the emphasis on economics. The advantages of NYC are obvious. However, SAIS is known for a fiercely loyal alumni network across the globe. Also, a first year in Bologna is such a unique opportunity. Any thoughts on the advantages of one school over the other? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1003768&forum_id=3#11799933) |

Date: May 30th, 2009 11:51 AM Author: Adventurous Sadistic Kitchen if you are thinking of going private, i.e. political risk consulting, then SIPA would be a better bet. their program is MUCH more flexible in terms of the course you can take. SAIS' heavy focus on econ is great, but it doesnt give you much flexibility (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1003768&forum_id=3#11857753) |
