jaa

MSFS Admissions wrote back to me; "We will mail all decision letters by April 1st." While SFS official line is they will send admissions decisions via postal mail (and by April 1st), there have been so many people reporting they had already received acceptance emails or rejection hard-copy letters from SFS. Does it mean those who got in are notified by email first and those who don't only get hard-copy rejection? And those who haven't heard anything from SFS can only expect a rejection letter in their mailboxes some time soon? Or am I just too pessimistic? I really hope it's the latter. @Kokobear @RunnINcircles @killerbees I also applied for the same program and concentration!!

Dear everyone who is waiting anxiously just like me, I emailed Georgetown Graduate Admissions today asking when and how I will receive my decision. This was their answer; "Admissions decisions are rendered by the Admissions Committee for each department individually, and deliberations vary in length from one department to the next. Because of this variation, our office cannot speak to where your application is in the review process, or how soon you will hear from the admissions committee. Most admissions decisions should be made and notifications sent by the end of March. We will only be sending notifications in hard copy, through the postal service." Then I emailed MSFS program asking the same thing. They haven't actually (personally) replied my email yet but the following was included in their auto-reply; "If you are a current applicant, please be aware that all decisions regarding admission and scholarships will be communicated via postal mail. We plan to have all decisions mailed by April 1st." (I did the highlighting, not them.) Best of luck to everyone!
