I’m leaning towards Iowa as the program looks better, but am wondering if it’ll be obvious I did it online as I live and work in Chicago. Do you think there’s still, or will be in the future, a negative stigma around online programs now that the world has turned remote? Thanks r/MBA appreciate your help!

I’m an international student applying to the masters in computer science program.

1. Which one of these is more prestigious?
2. Which is better in terms of job prospects?

Could anyone clear this up for me? Thanks!

Hello Redditors,

Below is the link to the Department of Public Administration's graduate program information session for our Master of Public Policy, Master of Public Administration, and Master of Science in Civic Analytics programs. Our graduate programs are oriented towards preparing you for rewarding careers in public service, and it is never too early to consider options for graduate study - whether you are a freshman, an upper division student, or already hold your undergraduate degree.

Our graduates have served in important positions in government agencies and nonprofits for decades, and Illinois is one of the best paying states for public workers. I encourage you to check it out, learn about our 4+1 accelerated undergrad/masters programs, and our innovative new curriculum.

Our MS in Civic Analytics program may particularly appeal to those with an interest in using information technology or computing in the public interest, though each of our programs are designed to be accessible for those with any undergraduate background. I am the MSCA program director and happy to schedule a time to meet and discuss career paths and curriculum.

The session is tomorrow (10/28/21) at 5:30 PM CST on Zoom and will last about an hour. It will cover admissions requirements, admissions deadlines, opportunities for funded study, and a review of each program's curriculum. Please RSVP through the link below:

155 LSAT, 3.27 CAS GPA

From Michigan and thinking about picking a few schools in Chicago job market due to connections from undergrad. I’m also planning on taking the lsat again too.

I’ve heard bad things about DePaul lately, I heard Loyola gives out barely any scholarship money, and based on my gpa and how I’ve been able to score on practice tests northwestern doesn’t seem super easy. So I’ve settled on applying to Kent and U of I.

It seems like Kent is within reach but I’d need to work a bit harder to get into Illinois. That said, are both schools receptive towards giving scholarship money and how would I do based on current stats? Additionally, what are the job opportunities like coming from each school?

Hello all! I’m in MKTG462 (marketing research class) and my team is conducting a survey on self-care and body-care products for women. The survey shouldn’t take too long to finish, (less than 5 minutes), and I would greatly appreciate it if you could please fill it out!

"Professor Wang Zhixiong criticized the two parties (of Taiwan):

Third-rate politicians, inferior parties, the formula for democracy to fail...The road to democracy in Taiwan is not a model, but vigilance to its failures. It witnessed the rise of a horrendous party and the decline of a useless party.

Without good people in politics, democracy will only get worse with elections. In Taiwan, especially after the liberalization of party bans, the genes of the two main political parties have never possessed any value of nobility and respect. They are flies, cockroaches, snakes and rats.

I hate the DPP, but I have never appreciated the Kuomintang after Lee Teng-hui came to power. (An Kuo's Note: It means that the Kuomintang before Lee Teng-hui was good) 

Let me talk about the Kuomintang first. Since Lee Teng-hui, the Kuomintang has been a group of cunning and opportunistic opportunists.

The genes of this party are basically the love of leisure and the evil of work. The young man who sits and eats in the sky is a typical example of "the wind is weak and the grass is weak, and the trees fall and fall apart."

This kind of treacherous spine inherited from the Li family's lineage can be seen from the close ministers next to him. From the old Sames Soong, the traitorous Wang Jyn-Ping, to the fraudulent Wu Den-yih, you can see this ugly gene in the Kuomintang's bones of "eating inside and out, selling out your comrades for glory." It's no wonder that this party has become a group of poor nerd who can only rely on "kidney dialysis for blood exchange", and few people care about it.

Let's talk about the Democratic Progressive Party. Since Chen Shui-bian, the DPP has been a group of tigers, leopards and jackals. In their bones, most of them are bandits and bandits. Once in power, they will eat copper and iron. They are a typical "national thief Dulugui, Qiu Ma is happy."

This kind of greed and greed passed down by Chen's bloodline, and its ugly appearance, can only make people astounded.

From Abian (Chen Shuibian)’s 700 million dollar embezzlement, A Nan (Chen Zhenan)’s Tai Lao Fengyun, A Wen (Chen Mingwen)’s high-speed iron money case, A Ju (Ch
