<p>The SAIS IR PhD is for professional careerists. The survey is for “for a student who wants to pursue an academic career in international relations” (the emphasis is in the original!).</p>
<p>I rest my case. I let you remain of your opinion. Let the jury decide.</p>

<p>Thank you for all your help and that interesting discussion. I want a school with a strong undergraduate program in many areas, because I am not sure if I want to pursue the IR field completely and go for an MA and whatnot.</p>
<p>There is just one problem. I cannot visit. There is no way for me to visit any colleges. Will this hurt me ultimately? I mean how will I know I want a rural setting when, well, I have never lived in one?</p>
<p>Ideas?</p>
<p>Erm… anyone? :)</p>
