Why I chose Fletcher: While working in the public
sector, I felt that my understanding of the world was limited to my
diplomatic circle. I needed to meet more people from various
backgrounds and life experiences, and Fletcher was the perfect place to
do that. Not only did I learn from the faculty, who are very balanced
between academic insight and field experience, but I also learned a lot
from my peers whose previous work experience provided interesting
perspectives both in and outside of the classroom.
Something that has surprised me about Fletcher: I
was very surprised by the School's well-designed Professional
Development Program and strong alumni network. Also, the Fletcher
community has a very inclusive and cooperative culture; this is very
helpful for international students, like me, to settle in and engage
with others.
