I'm hoping I didn't make a huge mistake here. The program I applied for (Data Analytics at George Mason) advertises a Funding Deadline of January 15, 2016 and a
Standard Deadline of March 18, 2016. Since I'd be attending part-time and my employer offers tuition assistance, I wasn't interested in being considered for funding, so applied on 3/17 just before the Standard Deadline. I keep reading about the April 15th decision date for applicants, but I haven't heard anything yet on my application. It took the school over a month to review my submission, and now it is in a status of "Out of Decision."
Did I completely ruin my chances by not applying before the 1/15 Funding Deadline?
