etoile9 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I don't really understand... what determines if they send an email or not? My VIP and application pages have no changes, but it says that they will mail out the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandsomeNerd Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 i was the one who posted the email last page. it wasn't a decision, but a notification about financial aid i might be eligible for as a veteran. hope that clears things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoliticallyAff Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Anyone rejected? I've lost all hope rejected everywhere and waiting to hear from SIS and MSFS... FML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cplanicka Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Just heard from American SIS for the Masters Science in Development Management program - accepted! They send it via mail, the letter was dated March 8 but it did not arrive until the 15th (sent to South Carolina, if that adds any perspective on mail timing). Good luck to those still waiting, hopefully your decision is in the mail...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indyir Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I called to ask about funding details.. the person i spoke to said it will be in the mail package and since I am in Mumbai, I will not recieve it till next week. So she checked for me taking my name n details and said I did not receive any funding unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't heard anything, and I live pretty close by, so I'm convinced I'm just being rejected everywhere :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael..1 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 last year i believe they sent them out in waves, so i wouldnt be too discouraged if nothing yet... i havent heard and im still hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoliticallyAff Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 They said they'll send them out in waves. This year they have about 1300 applicants and they admit about 300. last year i believe they sent them out in waves, so i wouldnt be too discouraged if nothing yet... i havent heard and im still hoping.

newba1ance Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Received my package by snail mail yesterday. No funding included, makes my decision a whole lot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acuvue09 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Yep got mine by snail mail yesterday too. No funding (for some reason they did not get my two mailed recs and transcript until after the deadline - lost it or postal service...probs lost it). No matter, going somewhere else. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M G Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Accepted into the MA International Affairs but I don't understand the funding letter.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael..1 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 (edited) if you were accepted, does it show up on your VIP page? or somewhere else online? Edited March 16, 2011 by michael..1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zs724 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Got my packet, but in a round-about way. It went to a former address so I had to get my old roommate opening for me over the phone since I didn't want to wait. Least I got in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Lux Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Got the big envelope today! No funding, though, so it's off to Georgetown or Syracuse and six figures of student loan debt. Accepted into the MA International Affairs but I don't understand the funding letter.... If all your award letter consisted of is the same $21K/yr. in Stafford loans that every other student at every other university is eligible for, then you didn't get any grants or scholarships. And I'm right there with you on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoliticallyAff Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 For those of you accepted, congrats! I wanted to know for those who were accepted via snail mail, what coast do you live on? I live in California. I'm wondering if I may get something or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said they'll be coming in waves, so try not to panic if you don't get anything this week. (I know, easier said than done.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal83 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 For those of you accepted, congrats! I wanted to know for those who were accepted via snail mail, what coast do you live on? I live in California. I'm wondering if I may get something or not. I'm in Arizona, haven't gotten anything yet. I'm anxiously awaiting a thick packet in the mail, although I suppose I could also receive a reject. I was waitlisted for GW and the only other school I applied to was George Mason, which is my backup. Nothing has been changed on my VIP page and there were people in other forums who said they were getting emails. Maybe they're international students? Oh the other thing though is that on the SIS admissions page up in the top right hand corner it says that applications for the Fall Master's class are still being accepted, why would they still be accepting applications? They didn't get enough at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carthage Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Got my acceptance in the (old fashioned) mail yesterday! I live in the northern Midwest, in case people are curious. Anyone else pretty underwhelmed by the admissions package? There was more information on how 'green' the new SIS building is (although it does look pretty nice) than on my actual program, and the main informational brochure was half full of material that only really applied to undergrads. It's great that 40% of SIS students study abroad, but I'm not sure you want to make that a main selling point when you're trying to convince grad students to choose your school.

I was just about to post the same thing. I had been waiting all week for the package and there really wasn't anything that I didn't already know in the package, and I had to roll my eyes at the pamphlet about how green the campus is when it's inserted in a snail mail package filled with paper that I'm throwing out right away. Also, no funding, which is making my decision much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robtastic Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I live in California as well, I'll post when I hear anything from American, honestly I could care less about being old fashion, I have decisions to make and need to know sooner rather than later if I got in.

etoile9 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I'm in!!! I'm thrilled to have an acceptance, but I won't be making a decision until I find out about my wait list situation. Fyi, I received the letter today, and it was dated March 10th. I live in Northern VA, just a few miles outside of DC. Good luck to everyone still waiting on their results!
