lackey

That would be GREAT! Doesn't seem to comport with the blog though, given how we haven't seen the admit/deny/wl posts yet. Is this for MPA?
My hopes are burgeoning, ugh.

Yes, and that's why it's rough for those of us who want decisions for one a week earlier, LOL. 

There is an update by Matt, but nothing concrete! March 14th seems to be the date as of now!

Hi !
Nope waiting till 5 pm today
lets see 
What about you? Are you going to email them?

 

Accepted via email this morning.

I'm sure you'll get in too.  

NEED good news as well.  I only applied several schools. Best luck!

Ughhhh! I wish they would just let us know today. I need good news. Two rejections and I’m Just feeling depleted. 

Here's my more simple heuristic for being worried: their deadline for admitted students to submit deposits is April 20. That strikes me as late, although I have not looked at past deadlines.

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 I've seen are PhD admits. I looked at the timeline for HKS PhD admits last year and it was the same so hopefully that means MPP does come out next week.

Ah yes, there are results from PhD for both HKS and the Gov Dept. Hopefully that's promising? Who knows. 

Lol. I think there should be 5-6 posts more till the result day. But they never give out the date in advance 

Awesome I didn't know that. It would be wild if they got back to us next week.

Sweet, looking forward to it! 

If they don’t release by 9th, I think it’s surekh gonna be on the 12th, going by the past decisions! It would also seem that Matt should post the next update on the reading and decision series today(28th feb)?

They normally release decisions before spring break and we start spring break on March 9, so they will probably release admission decisions on March 7. 

Program Applied To: (MPA, MPP, IR, etc.) : 4 MPP's/1 MPA
Schools Applied To:  Harris, Heinz, Sanford, La Follette(MPA), Loyola (safety, free app)
Schools Admitted To:  Harris (small scholarship), La Follette (full tuition first year, also nominated for a fellowship which would be full tuition+stipend but won't find out until late march/early april), Loyola
Schools Rejected From:  
Still Waiting:  Heinz, Sanford
Undergraduate institution:  2nd tier state university
Undergraduate GPA:  3.80
Last 60 hours of Undergraduate GPA (if applicable):  3.9
Undergraduate Major:  Economics
GRE Quantitative Score:  158, 69th percentile (regrettable time management, left the final 2 questions blank, didn't want to fork over another $205 to retake it, excuses excuses)
GRE Verbal Score:  162, 91st percentile
GRE AW Score: 5.0, 93rd percentile
Years Out of Undergrad (if applicable):  0
Years of Work Experience:  0
Describe Relevant Work Experience: Internship for regional planning group doing economic studies, internship for US Senator's state office, research assistant for my school's state policy lab
Strength of SOP (be honest, describe the process, etc):  Relatively strong, discussed how my internships informed my decision and had clear goals for what I want to use the degree for (this is especially important if you're straight out of undergrad like me), made specific references to the school I was applying to
Strength of LOR's (be honest, describe the process, etc): Strong: 2 from econ professors, one from intern coordinator at senator's office
Other: I think my biggest strengths in my application come from the fact that I had these experiences while also being a starting student athlete at my university, shows dedication to public service and ability to handle a very heavy schedule. Also helps to be an econ wonk, especially for applying to Harris. I did not expect to be admitted to Harris, much less be offered funding. However, the cost of tuition remaining plus the cost of living in Chicago may put it out of reach. Waiting to hear from Heinz and Sanford. One of my recommenders is a CMU alum which might benefit me. I have my doubts about getting in to Sanford, just a gut feeling, but I assume I'll find out in the next month or so. 
S/O to @lackey, glad to see another econ major straight out of undergrad. Best of luck hearing back from those last three you are waiting on, I am rooting for you. 

I am also curious about this and would like Harris added to the mix.

They said they will post it online tonight!  Missed their call last evening but they called again this morning,  best wishes!
 

Travelling right now and switched out my sim card, so no phone call for me either way! Those of us in Europe will have a long night!

Guys, they will call you tonight (info courtesy of Admitted Students FB group). Good luck!

Thanks for the insights.  Just got accepted into Harris via phone.  Very excited to visit campus and get a first-hand perspective.
