Got waitlisted on HKS. Don't see any point in that due to funding issues with waitlists.
No email yet from WWS. Logging off. Been a long day for me at India. All the best to those who go in! Cheers!
-
Congrats to admitted ones. I am waitlisted.

Guys, my prediction of results coming out on day 100 is gonna come true. Matt's waiting for the 100,000th view on here (speculation). Which makes sense because my odds of admittance are 100/100,000. #numerology.
His number of tweets just touched 600 with the last one!

Are they sending personalized rejections? Like why have I not gotten this email yet?
Must be a mail merge thing...wonder why

Still waiting for my misery to end...no mail from WWS yet

Maybe Matt’s the troll who keeps posting in the results list. ?
That was funny ?

No email. If it really is over I find it surprising that only 3 or 4 people from this entire forum made it.
It helps if WWS sends out the rejection/waitlisted mails too. At least the uncertainty would be over for many of us here.

Did you get some good news from them though? Syncing our sleep cycles with EST isn’t worth without.
No good news for me. Yet to get the bad news though
And I am not going to sync my sleep cycle just as yet, except maybe for HKS tonight while it lasts.

Waiting in Indian Standard Time sucks more. You’d understand.
Yes. Coz when the actions starts, we are caught dozing. Happened with me while Princeton's YES mails went out yesterday

I haven't received anything. We'll just have to see what happens on the 15th. I hope they send some YES! emails in the morning and decisions in the afternoon. It would be sad if only 2/3 of us got in via this site.
Yeah. Hope is the last thing that...
-
Congratulations to the ones who got in. All the best!
I am yet to hear from WWS (YES/Reject/waitlisted). And it's just morning in India. Long day ahead for me as I wait for both HKS and WWS. Did anyone get Reject mail yet?

just out of curiosity, were you nominated for the Joint Japan scholarship?

By that logic, I am certainly out. I applied for MPA/ID and it seems I was amongst the first ones(or perhaps the only one in this program ) to get the change(text above the two tabs removed) in the admission portal. In addition, I also received the contact of the aid counselor at the earlier stage. :))
metoo. Text above tabs vanished long back and aid counselor allotted earlier.

From the time the discussions about the cosmetic changes on the admissions portal started, I have wondered about the utility of doing it from HKS's point of view. Probably it makes more sense to do the backend database updates in one shot after the list is ready, and then change the front end to give the required information to candidates after login. The change in frontend of what is displayed to candidates before the results are out beats me. Anyway, now that many have observed such changes, I wonder why it happens. Maybe there are reasons.

FWIW I got a phone call informally notifying me of my acceptance to the WWS security studies PhD program yesterday.
I know that it isn’t the program you all are waiting for, but I thought I would pop in here from the political science board and let you all know.
Wow. Congratulations! Very happy for you.
We await the MPA results now.

Compared to the action in the HKS thread, this one for WWS is amazingly quiet. The last communication from WWS was the automated mail upon submission of application. I guess this would erupt once the results are out.

Don't want to add further anxiety, but I noticed that my HKS application status page looks different today - no longer any text above the Admissions and Financial Aid toggle buttons. Anyone else seeing a similar change?
God level observation. Was there some text earlier? I seem to forget but yes nothing above those toggle buttons now. I thank God for keeping me super busy this week at work. Otherwise this thread will kill me with anxiety. All the best to all.

I don't know if this will make waiting better or worse for everyone, but in the interest of sharing information (as we all go through this crazy process!) I received an interview request for a CPL fellowship on Monday (Bacon fellowship--others could be on different timelines?)
My interview is this Friday, March 2. I agree with @jello1237, I remember hearing that they are releasing decisions at the same time as financial info this year, which was not the case in the past. The CPL email I got didn't mention admission, so that is unclear to me. Anyone else in a similar boat?
All the best!

How would it be 10 days if we're finding out by the 15th?
Last year it was March 10th. So just a guess...it may well be 15th as you say

I guess we are almost there. Any updates/guesses on the result dates?
Still a week to 10 days away I guess

Joint Japanese World Bank Scholarship emails have been sent. I received one to apply for MPA/ID (partner program). The link came in a bit late, but the process is on.

Where exactly is the checklist located? I can see the 'submitted' symbol next to the name and my entire application in HTML format but nothing else...
