<p>Well, Brown’s MA in American Studies is designed specifically for international students, which makes it interesting as well.</p>
<p>The thing is that I am not entirely sure (yet) if I want to do a PhD and if I actually ‘got what it takes’ to pursue this … I am hoping that doing the MA would clarify some things for me, help me realize if I am cut out for doing a PhD and IF I decide to pursue this, make it easier for me to get into a good, funded PhD program.</p>
<p>Otherwise, if I would not choose the path of academics, I would love to work in journalism or for a cultural/political (US) organization…</p>
