Where our admitted candidates come from

You've heard us say time and again that we welcome feedback and suggestions. We want to be true to our word.

On Monday, Góes posted this comment on last week's quiz: "Could you make a map like the one in this post featuring where the students admitted to the Center this year come from?" I promised we would do so.

Below you will see a map of the world showing the countries of the candidates who were admitted through our office in Bologna for the 2011-12 academic year. Keep in mind that this map does not include those admitted through our Washington Admissions Office, which handles applications from U.S. citizens and permanent residents.

Some of you may remember a post in January with maps showing where this year's students come from and the 110 countries of our alumni.

All of this, of course, underscores the international character of SAIS -- one of our most important characteristics. And we hope a drawing card for our admitted candidates.
