  1. I got my email about my updated offer letter last night around 7pm eastern. Offered an additional $5k per year.
  2. I called admissions and they said those with funding have to respond by April 15 and then they'll redistribute funds not accepted before April 20. They try to spread it out among those that submitted requests to receive additional funding. Tricia mentioned they generally don't give out large amounts of additional funding but do plan to give out what was not accepted. Makes it hard with other schools deadlines of April 15 :/
  3. Have people had success in actually getting additional funding?
  4. Anyone know how Michigan responds to a request for more funding? I have $20k to both Chicago Harris and Duke Sanford and I am wondering if I can use those to leverage some funding to Ford. While it can't hurt (and yes, very apparent there is lots of funding potential once in the program), do they grant some/additional funding when people ask?? Thanks!
  5. I am glad I have other offers with scholarships. I liked a recent recommendation to not go over $70k in debt for an MPP ($80k if certain want to go private) - even the prestige of a Harvard degree. Good luck to all making the final decision!!
  6. @Tinpants12 same here $81k in loans/year .... no thanks!
  7. April 1 is when financial aid comes out? Where have people heard this specific date? Haven't they just said first week of April (and apparently they're getting really close)? Anyone know how many people reject their offer to HKS each year (most likely due to funding)? Or if people really do finance the bulk of their schooling in loans? This seems pretty crazy (especially for an MPP) and am definitely more looking at Duke and Chicago (half tuition at both) if I don't receive a substantial offer from HKS (which is sadly likely)
