PROGRAMS

Master's Degree

A major objective of the PPIA Fellowship is for students to achieve a Master's Degree or joint degree, typically in public policy, public administration, international affairs or a related degree. After completing a Junior Summer Institute, PPIA Fellows are aggressively recruited from the PPIA Graduate School Consortium where they are entitled to a minimum of $5,000 towards their tuition. Very often they receive well above and beyond that amount.

PPIA Fellows are encouraged to defer up to a couple of years before applying to graduate school in order to gain work experience and further preparation for graduate studies. However, enrollment into one of the PPIA Consortium schools is expected for PPIA Fellows within 2 years of graduation. An additional one year extension may be requested.
