HKS was my first choice and I got rejected there, but accepted to WWS. Don't be too hard on yourself, really is a crapshoot!

2 year MA Global Affairs program! I hope you hear back soon.

Decisions are out! Accepted! Does anyone know if the initial admissions letter should contain fellowship/funding if offered? Or does that come later? If not bummer... means no fellowship/extra $$ for me

Sure! I also wonder about the points you made above. I'm afraid I don't have much insight. A previous Pickering fellow did let me know regarding fellow profiles, that Rangel seems to assemble cohorts consisting primarily of people of color, whereas Pickering tends to lean more towards diversity in broader terms. Of course, there's no way to know if this is intentional or just how pieces fall, but it will be interesting to see if that observation holds.

Actually, if you go over to Pickering's website under the same Rangel category 'advisor resources,' they give an Oct. 26 notification date: https://pickeringfellowship.org/resources/advisor-resources/

Caught me by surprise too, but checked their website and looks like they’ll be sending out notifications on Oct. 18: https://www.rangelprogram.org/resources-for-advisors/
