Read MoreWith the Spooky Season wrapping up, Deadline Reminder Season takes over in full, readers. While I’m sure you don’t strictly NEED me to underscore that the November 10 early notification application deadline is but a week away, I’d feel derelict in my blogging duties if I didn’t give it a call out. Time to get crackin’ on that application!

Today we’ll meet Gautier, a student in the Master of Arts in Transatlantic Affairs (MATA) program. The MATA is a jointly-awarded degree between Fletcher and the College of Europe based in Belgium, whose students spend time at both institutions as well as in an internship focused on the Transatlantic relationship. Take it away, Gautier!

To wit: I’m in New York City for the early portion of this week, representing Fletcher at Idealist and APSIA events, and conducting some interviews and individual admissions appointments on the ground in NYC. It’s my first real recruitment travel since 2019!

Our GAs are a crucial part of our operation each year, providing support in a lot of our communications, event planning, and application processing during the peak of Admissions season. They also are often the first people prospective students will meet or contact, and they’re great sources of information on the Fletcher student experience. We’re thrilled to welcome Chiara, Gabe, and Taehee to our team this year!
