Congrats..

UVa will send emails or should we check our application pages? They use same application system with GWU but in GWU's system there is an indication says your application under review while there is none in UVa system!!

thanks. I applied without any funding request. I have my own scholarsip from my country. Waiting for those..FSU seems rejected but they haven't send anything about the decision yet..

any news from UVa,UMD,UFL and GWU?

I am planning to also KCL and LSE. I ve prepared most of stuffs but it is really hard to write a research proposal. It seems you did.

Thanks a lot..I hope you will get what you want soon..Good luck..

What is your subfield MarketMan? your list surprised me actually:)

Looking for IR.

Hope so.

Rejected: FSU Waiting: UFL,UVa,GWU,UMD,Binghamton

I am coming back to my country. I have already applied: GWU Virginia Pittsburgh not sure: Maryland Illinois Florida Int. Vanderbilt Johns Hopkins(not SAIS) Delaware Florida State SUNY Binghamton

I am gonna study on IR theory(mostly realist) and What do you think of Delaware(stuart kaufmann,robert denemark), Syracuse(colin elman) and Illinois( John A. Vasquez), Maryland, Johns Hopkins(daniel deudney), Vanderbilt and UMass?

I am currently working on my working sample and trying to develop my SOP. I want to focus IR theory. My GRE scores are low. 160 Q 150 V. I have government scholarship from my country(full tution and living expenses) GPAs 3.50 and 3.60 My list: Virginia GWU Pittsburgh SUNY Binghamton Maryland Florida State Univ. Florida

I have government scholarship from my home country..

LSE,KCL,Birmingham,Bristol,Bath,Warwick

IR theory. I do not have so much hope. I am gonna apply some UK unis also.

I also did some conv. with profs. Some of them responds unwillingly and some were vey positive. However, my objective quals are poor. GPA 3.60,GRE 310, IELTS 7.0 I do have exernal funding. I applied Chicago, GWU,Pittsburgh,Virgina and I am planning to apply also Maryland,Delaware and WUSTL---any advice for all? Good luck for you all...

Actually, I want to focus on IR theory(mostly realist) and order problems. I applied Chicago,GWU,Virginia,Pittsburg. I wonder about prestige of SUNY Binghamton(close relations, partnership with my current school),Maryland and Delaware. Their deadlines: 1th February. One of the red flags(GPA) will bi fixed by that time. Are those worth applying instead some British ones suc King's College or Birmingham?

Thanks for your answer. @adaptations I am aware of my weaker points. That's why I am not so hopeful. Which schools, then, seems more possible for me?

Hello, I am studying International Relations MSc in Turkey. I am gonna apply to US political science phd programs but I am a little bit hopeless.

Shoul I answer financial aid questions during application as yes or no? Secondly, my current master GPA is 3.00 and there is a falling grade(FF) in my transcript since I replace this course with another one. However, the grade of the course that I have taken instead previous one will be seen by 29th January and my CumGPA will rise to 3.60. Is it a problem to have an FF at this stage? there is an indication about replacing the couse in transcrip and ı also mentioned it in my SOP. My list: Maryland,Chicago, GWU, Georgetown,Delaware, Texas A&M, Virginia,Florida, Connecticut, NotreDamme, Pittsburg, Suny Albany,Ohio state, North Carolina.. Which ones(5-6) should I apply?
