Hello Jill I think most people regard the University of Leicester M.A. programme as having the best international reputation. It is certainly the oldest and best known programme in the U.K. Although as a graduate of that programme I may be biased...

As I'm planning on returning to the U.S after the program, I'm trying to figure out which one has the best international reputation. Does anyone know about these programs? Would one carry more weight than the other in hiring? I appreciate any insight you all might have.
