The program is small by design, affording students extensive opportunities to interact with faculty. The Hopkins MPP program stands out from most public policy programs in several major respects: rigorous training in quantitative, analytical skills and practical management skills; location within a University-based research institute, which provides opportunities for students to work as research assistants; and easy access to Washington D.C. which gives students significant opportunities to learn firsthand about the policy process and to become personally acquainted with those involved in it.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: GRE Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: 3.0 English Proficiency: Yes Research Competency: Yes Clinical Internship: No   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition: 37700  Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time:   # of Students Enrolled Part Time:   Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit:   Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:   Average Work Experience:   Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage:   Historically Black:   Religious Affiliation:         Visit Program Website
