“I chose MSFS because of its distinguished reputation, its well-established alumni network, and its location in Washington, DC. I knew that the combination of these factors, in addition to the exposure to practitioner professors and classmates of diverse academic and professional backgrounds, would create the perfect environment for my professional development and success."
