What in particular about Yale has influenced your decision to apply? (100 word limit) 


I had the privilege of participating in the exceptional Yale Young Global Scholars: Studies in Grand Strategy Program. It was hard to leave! Every day I felt the manifestation of Yale’s internationalization goals, its history of graduates with service to government, and its promotion of opportunities for collaboration in an interconnected world. Other universities offer diverse connections and encourage risk taking, but Yale’s commitment to global citizenship makes it my clear choice. I'm eager to explore programs like those offered through the MacMillan Center and CIPE. Yale makes me curious and eager about the direction my exploration can take.
