<p>Talk to gov professors at your school. I’m sure most of them know people from the departments you want to apply to (given your school).</p>

<p>Also: your professors read applications from people just like you for exactly the type of program you’re looking for. </p>

<p>Most of the people who use this website don’t do that.</p>
