Colleges & Universities University of Virginia

<p>any general information would be of great help as a am very interested in public policy</p>

<p>Frank Batten, a UVa alumnus, donated $100 million to start a new school of public policy. It’s probably fine for undergraduate study, but for graduate study I’d look for a more established MPP program… </p>

<p>There’s plenty of general stuff that you can find on google, but I don’t think you’ll be able to get a student’s perspective on the school for a while.</p>

<p>you know, there’s this thing called [Google[/url</a>] . Fantastic website.</p>

<p>and even wikipedia has an article (short, but tells you the basics.) [Batten</a> School of Leadership and Public Policy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia](<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batten_School_of_Leadership_and_Public_Policy]Batten”>Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy - Wikipedia)</p>

<p>The school will be opening in Fall 2009, so as Cav said, there are no student perspectives.</p>

<p>haha someone else pulled the “search before posting” card besides me?</p>

<p>Yeah, db123 beat YOU BY A SOLID 10 HOURS. WHY IS THE TITLE OF THE THREAD ALL CAPS AFTER 3 WORDS?</p>

<p>lol (10chrs)</p>

<p>by mistake I hit the all caps key… I guess my real quesiton would be if getting into the Frank Batten School of Public Policy would be easier or harder than Arts and Sciences. Any help would be helpful. Thanks</p>

<p>No, it won’t.</p>

<p>UHHH IT ISN’T OPEN YET. </p>

<p>and from the information provided on the websites that I mentioned, it looks like you’ll be able to complete a program through that school if you’re already an undergrad. seriously, open the links. this is straight off of the first one.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>and hazelorb, don’t worry about me beating you. I am, after all, about 10 hours ahead of you right now. :slight_smile: you and shoe are the undisputed royalty of the “search” function. I just crowned you.</p>

<p>lol i don’t care if other people do it, it saves me having to link to it. it just annoys me when people blatantly ask things that have been asked 3230948203948023 times before. i’m glad i’m not the only one now ;)</p>

<p>thanks db123</p>
