ir_gradstudent Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Let's start the bidding. Anyone say Friday the 13th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsFutureDiplomat Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I think so. I was already admitted to SAIS in December through Early Notification, but I didn't get any notification either way about funding. I asked the financial aid office and they said the EN and Regular admits funding is released around the same time. They told me my funding decision would be available on the 13th. So I would assume it's the day Regular decisions are released. good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReinventOneself Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 (edited) Mysteriously, starting yesterday, the link on the application website to see one's acceptance/rejection letter for Early Notification disappeared. That tells me they're getting the Regular Applicant results ready to post imminently. However last year's results went out on Friday March 14th, so we may have to wait a couple more days...

InternationalHopeful Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Per the Admissions Website: Master of Arts (M.A.) Early Notification Application Deadline November 15 Early Notification Decisions Released December 30 Regular Application Deadline January 7 Financial Aid Application Deadline February 15 Regular Admissions Decisions Released March 13 Financial Aid Decisions Released March 13 Hasn't stopped me from refreshing my application page to see if they've uploaded anything early.

RobbyMcG Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Anyone know if "shortly after" for funding means same day, or next week? __________________________________ Accepted: Sciences Po PSIA, Columbia SIPA Rejected: Princeton WWS, Yale Jackson Waiting: Georgetown SFS, Johns Hopkins SAIS, American SIS, Geneva IHEID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
it's an IR world Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I'm curious what time-ish they send the decisions out. I've been receiving decisions at all hours (2am, 11am, 230pm etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InternationalHopeful Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I've stalked the timelines very intensely. Given that 2014 was on a Friday, we will hopefully see stuff midday. In 2014 the Bologna acceptances started at 11am EST and then DC was around 2pm on Friday, March 14: 2013 Tuesday, March 12 @ 6:40pm EST: 2012 Tuesday, March 13 @ 6:30pm EST: it's an IR world and InternationalHopeful 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work is going to be hard to sit through tomorrow, regardless of the decision. This forum has been such a reprieve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akueldo Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Does anyone have a sense for how much merit funding SAIS gives out? Edit: anxiously awaiting tomorrow... Edited March 12, 2015 by Akueldo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameTheory Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Not to add to the confusing, but I got my fellowship award notice for Bologna at 1.30pm (GMT+1) last year, but I didn't get the notice to check the portal until a few hours later. Not surprisingly, I thought it was a huge mistake and had the sweats for a bit. Good luck everyone! I'm anxious for you all too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ir_gradstudent Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) MY DECISION FOR D.C. MA IS POSTED ON THE SITE. ACCEPTED!!!! I'm soooooooo happy. SAIS is my top choice, tied with Georgetown... they both have strong programs in the niche international field I'm interested in, but SAIS may be stronger. Now to wait and see what Georgetown says! No word on financial aid yet: Candidates who have submitted their SAIS financial aid application and Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) by February 15 will be sent a separate communication from the Office of Financial Aid on March 13 providing them with instructions to access and accept their financial aid awards. If your FAFSA was submitted after the 15th, award information will follow within two weeks later. Edited March 13, 2015 by ir_gradstudent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
