  1. There are a few. You need to check 'Government', not Political Science.
  2. Just called Georgetown and they've told me that decisions will be out by the end of the month.
  3. Called UMD-College Park & UPenn. Upenn: 1-2 weeks from today. UMD: max 10 more days.
  4. I've seen a few acceptances from UMD over here the other day, but I didn't get anything and my status on the website is the same. Should I just presume I'm on the rejections list to be sent next week? Also, do you guys know when should we expect to hear from Gtown and UPenn?
  5. UMD admits, have your status on the online platform changed? And have you received a personalized email?
  6. Does anyone know when I should expect to hear back from Gtown, UMD, UPenn? Are they usually in February or March? Thanks and good luck to everyone.
  7. Hi guys, Does anyone know how tuition remission works at George Washington University for graduate assistantships? I understand that a full-time employee (40h/wk??) gets 90% of max 6 credits, right? Is this also the case for grad students having assistantships? And can you mix tuition remission with merit-based fellowships?
  8. My GRE results where V 164, Q 151, AW 4.0 and I got accepted to all universities I applied and got generous funding from three out of four. So, you can get into some good non-ivy universities with that. But you should maybe not apply to quant-heavy universities (e.g. Harris, Carnegie Mellon, Berkeley) with a Q 150. Also, considering that you probably want to apply in the next cycle, you maybe should take the GRE again, focusing on the quant part. Go over 155.
  9. Just received my admission to UMDCP with a very generous package, but I already made my mind to go to GWU.
  10. I called them last week and they told me that my file is still under department review. If I don't hear until by Thursday, I will just give up on this one and choose one of the other universities. I think that you should also call them. If more people call, they may hurry up.
  11. Guys, while I received my admission package two weeks ago, I am still to receive the financial package reply, which I understood from the admission email that it will be decided separately. Is anyone else in this situation and what would you recommend me to do? Should I call them?
  12. Hi there. I think that you may still receive an offer during April and May, mainly because they send the packages in batches. I received an acceptance offer (sadly without funding) without having an interview. I declined the offer.
  13. Thanks for the feedback, @3dender . I decided to wait for the results from UMD before I choose an offer, but it must before April 15. Last year you heard back from them before mid-April?
  14. Has anyone heard from UMD School of Public Policy? It's the only university I heard nothing back and my application is still 'pending' on the application platform.
  15. My admission consultant exchanged some emails with them, so no official email. No worries.
  16. Disregard my previous post. I just got a notice that UCSD GPS will send the financial packages on March 19th.
  17. Hi guys. I have a dilemma. I was admitted into GPS but I did not receive any word on funding, yet. Did any of you receive the funding package together with the admission package or separately? I am reading the admission letter from the dean and it says "Please confirm your intention to enroll at the university by May 1, 2018 through the link provided in your official notice from the UC San Diego Graduate Division. All fellowship decisions are made separate from admissions decisions, and you will receive the result of the committee deliberation in mid-March." Which means that I should expect another email with funding info, if any? Best to all.
  18. Think about income prospects in the next 10-15 years in the field you are interested in and do consider that when you make your financial assessment. Nobody will want to be overburdened by an expensive degree in a low-paying job.
  19. I am considering attending if I receive a tuition waiver to supplement my Fulbright Award. I like the focus on Asia-Pacific and the location but it will be hard to turn down GWU Trachtenberg, which offered me a nice Fellowship. I am also an international applicant.
  20. I got an email notifying me that I was nominated for admission and they said that I will receive notice of funding during this week. Did you guys already know if you received or not funding?
