Same here. A real hit in the gut. The thought of no funding really makes decisions harder for me. I'll try to reach out to at least see if I can find out why I got absolutely no funding

Thank you @mapiau for taking the time to answer some questions! I guess I have the following questions on my mind: 1) What's your assessment of the curriculum/coursework? Is it really practical/"real world", and do you feel students are able to acquire concrete skills that they can use in the workplace? How flexible are degree requirements? Are students able to pursue their interests with relative ease given the degree requirements? 2) How is looking for internships and other professional opportunities that correspond with your career interests? How is Career Services, etc? 3) How are the student organizations? A quick look on the GPS website, some organizations, in particular the professionally-focused ones, pique my interest, but in my experience student orgs can often be hit-or-miss. 4) Can you describe how the Prep Program runs? 5) How is the student body as a whole? Are students generally of a very high caliber, or does the quality of students really run the gamut? Is there a "competitive" or "cutthroat" environment, are many students really ambitious? Thank you again for the time, I know it's a bit much!!

Congrats!! Do you mind sharing your profile? Also, what was your timeline? When did you learn of your nomination for admission, when did you receive the official acceptance letter from the Graduate Division, and how long did you wait before hearing about funding?

Has anyone received the official acceptance email from the Graduate Division yet? According to the Results page here on The Grad Cafe, some people who were notified of their nomination for admission have received the official letter, but I haven't got anything yet. I'm assuming the Graduate Division will send out the official emails in chronological order?

I also received the message informing me that I have been "nominated for admission"! Still awaiting official acceptance letter from the Graduate Division, as well as funding information, although per what I've gathered from reading these forums from prior years, it appears that funding info is released in mid-March, and separately from admissions decisions. Still excited about the prospect of attending this program at GPS though, and happy at the early positive sign!
