Does anyone got Trinity college? the accommodation is a bit expensive. sigh. Is it worth it to stay inside the college accomodation?

Didn't get any notification too. I did sent my offer letter to HKS already when i applied. Goodbye HKS I guess.

Chiming in a bit late.. Haven't got college placements yet Should I worry? Also anyone knows when Weidenfeld will release its result? Just finished an intense interview.. Not sure I did well, felt like I blabber a lot

Btw I noticed in the FB group that there are around 130 ppl (minus admin) that's a member there. I thought that their capacity this year was only 120 ppl. Just wondering whether all the ppl in the group have decided to accept and enroll in the program.

Any admitted students requesting deferral due to financial issues? Any ideas when can we expect to hear back from them?

Not yet for me. But from the FB group most people seem to have received it though. So I'm a bit worried.

Hi, which financial needs questionnaire that you mentioned? I haven't seem to receive it yet. Do they only send it to you once you accept their admission offer?

I tried emailing them last week. Haven't got any reply until now and I tried calling them but 'the answer was simply we do not give updates to individuals, our team will reply to your email'. Would by any chance, anyone knows when last year's award recipient got their news? The timeline doesn't quite match the school.

Opened the MYFAID can't find any info on scholarship/financial aid, in fact there was no 'accept awards' tab. It's weird cause I thought everyone who applied will be able to see that tab. Oh well. Need to consider the other schools.. can't afford it :/

Hi Guys, I wanted to get some opinion regarding MPP program in Oxford vs Harvard. I feel lucky to be accepted into both programs and currently trying to compare which program that is certainly worth the money and time investment. I worked in both private and public sector in the last 3-4 years and planning to build a career in the public sector back in my home country (in Asia). HKS - MPP: Two-year program. The brand is definitely a plus. I don't have doubts about the curriculum and how practical it is. But class size is rather big (220+). Ox BSG - MPP: 1-year program. Relatively a new program. People say the curriculum is more innovative compared to the traditional U.S. MPP. Class size is also smaller, around 120 ppl this year. I haven't heard any news regarding financial aid from both schools yet. But it might in the end depends on that. Since Blavatnik is a 1-yearprogram is cost half than what Harvard cost me for two years. Any other insights that I should consider in deciding between the two schools?

Congrats too, Handiya! I'm also having a similar situation like yours! I am torn between MPP in HKS or in BSG. As an international student like me, it may boils down to funding in the end. But also would love to get comparison on both programs. Thanks!
