To those admitted in mdev: did you notice that they have changed the course structure for those starting this year? It is structured with a major and a minor. When I applied there were three tracks and you had to take one course in each per semester. What is your opinion about this change?

@Autumn Springs which school will you go to? I was admitted to Sciencespo and iheid as well (development). I am 90% sure I will go to Iheid, mainly because of job opportunities. What about you?

I am from Brazil (got my degree in Brazil as well). With intermediate French (which urgently needs to become fluent now!).

I am in! Mdev!! Good luck!

When did you receive your decision? have you looked for other sources of funding (scholarships/loans)?

Really? Tomorrow morning?? I was pretty sure today would be the day...this is frustrating...

It is 2:07 pm. Seven minutes is more than enough to write "admitted" and press "send"!

I wouldn't worry too much about this, I will trust the website. Of course, the system is not free from human error (just like pretty much everything), so there is always a chance someone will do something wrong, but it is not like everyone needs to call the school to confirm what is posted. What is killing me is the "under consideration" status, I can't look at this application page anymore! It is already noon in Geneve. Maybe the guy responsible for this will hit "enter" when he is about to go home today....he is surely having fun reading the forum!

There was no ealry bird deadline for interdisciplinary courses (Development and Int Affaris), and most of results this week were for these courses. But I don't have any explanation for what is happening. Let's just hope that by tomorrow we will have our results.

Hi. Do they say if this deadline is just for you? Or is it an official results day or something?

I have the feeling that nothing is happening today....

Balance of the forum today: 13 posts, 4 admitted and 9 rejected (there is one person - admitted - who posted twice, that is why there are 14 posts today).

I am also repeating to myself the "overqualified" point, but it is a bit hard to believe! I hope they need more people from BRICS countries!

There are 7 rejections so far, 6 of which were posted today. Let's hope they left all approvals for tomorrow! This is just cruel: once they know who was rejected, they know who was approved too, so they could simply send out all results. I am trying to ignore the fact that the rejected profiles look better than mine...

You are right, it seems they all happened between Friday and today. One person is saying they called to give the results, which is odd. They all seem to be rejections, though.
