What is the effect of not passing the quantitative validation exams?
You will not be permitted to take the two quantitative courses required for your MPAff unless you have satisfied the quantitative prerequisites. If you delay the start of your quantitative courses until your second year (fall semester) and you intend to take the Internship for credit, you will not have fulfilled all the requirements necessary to do your internship during summer. (Note: In order to register for your Internship course, you must have completed at least five of six “core” courses – i.e., Introduction to Empiral Methods, Advanced Empirical Methods, Applied Microeconomics, Public Management, Public Financial Management, and Politics and Process). IEM must be completed before you can enroll in your internship.
