Hopefully not hijacking this too much, but any advice on negotiating a renegotiated offer? I got an initial offer from Harris (15k a year), submitted my form request for an additional 15k (was offered 75% at another school), but Harris only came back with 5k more, so 20k a year. I would commit to Harris in a heartbeat if I got 25k a yr. Any advice on going back and requesting an additional 5k at this point? Does that happen?

New rankings are up. Curious to know what people think about overall public affairs and policy analysis rankings, and if you're taking this under consideration as you're making your final decision: https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-public-affairs-schools/public-affairs-rankings https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-public-affairs-schools/public-policy-analysis-rankings

Accepted via Luskin School email today (no mention of funding), and still waiting on the official grad school division email. Did anyone get a funding decision? Did it come through Luskin or the grad division?

Thanks @nori1015! Unfortunately it says "To date, no decision has been made on your application". Guess I have to wait some more!

Anyone else hear back? Haven't heard anything, so fearing that a rejection or waitlist for me.

Anyone hear back yet? Based on last year's results, it looks like people were notified on the 27th (Monday), so was expecting to hear back today.

If you search Harris you'll see it: http://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?q=harris Chicago Harris School Of Public Policy Public Policy, Masters (F18) Accepted via Phone on 15 Feb 2018 A 16 Feb 2018

Looks like someone posted in the results that they were accepted via phone call today. Anyone else get a call?

Just based on last year decision posts.

Anyone hear anything? Looks like we might hear back tomorrow.

Hoping the decision icon is a good sign! This anticipation is killing me.
