Just saw this now, sorry! I have been working as a consultant/federal contractor for 2 years doing social policy type work, and had GRE scores of 160 Quant, 165 Verbal, 5.5 Writing. I graduated small liberal arts college with a 3.93, where I majored in Economics and minored in Biology.
Hi guys! I can confirm that I applied by the January deadline, and was notified on Monday 2/10 that I was accepted with $30k a year in funding. Good luck to the rest of you still waiting!
