    PupCakes reacted to AP in If I feel like I've been waitlisted, is it a good idea to reach out to graduate admissions to ask when I should expect to hear back from them?   
    By no means write/call saying you “Feel like” something. If you don’t have the information, then write/call to kindly ask about your status. Programs are way within their timeframe to give you an answer so they might not have any decisions yet. You can include a line saying “I’d like to reiterate my interest in this program” or something to that end.

    I applied to American SIS, GWU Elliott School, Georgetown MSFS, and SAIS. I think I'm going to go with Georgetown, as it was my top choice. ?

    I was accepted today to the MAGR!
    So far I also have offers from LSE for an MsC. in Regulation and from King's College London for their International Political Economy program.
    I have a previous postgrad degree from LSE as well.

    I just checked the portal, and though I haven't received an email yet, my GW MPA decision was ready! Accepted and said that I would receive an email about merit-based aid "shortly."

    I also got $27,000 and MSFS offered $31,881 so I guess that's MSFS for me! Also got full tuition from Yale which is amazing but also it's not a major IR school so lots of decisions ahead! Although the most expensive program (Conflict Res at Georgetown) is still where my heart is at

    My Financial aid is out for DC!
    46K a year...I'm losing it. GW offered me nothing, and I spent last weekend thinking I had dramatically overestimated my chances...

    It will definitely be a challenge taking classes in Chinese but I think after that year of hard work, my Chinese will be amazing haha

    I'm in! MA in DC. I haven't seen any emails regarding funding so I'm assuming I won't be getting any. I can't believe I wen't 4/4 with applications & acceptances. My head is spinning. lol.

    Looks like SAIS notifications are being released! I received an acceptance letter via the portal (they sent an email telling me to check it). The letter says any financial awards will be released later today. 
    Anyone receive $$ from SAIS for the regular deadline?

    I just got my scholarship e-mail too. Got 10k for HNC, 20k for the first year in DC, and 10k for the final semester in DC. Not bad at all... that's really exciting, I might be able to not have crushing debt for the rest of my career haha. Need to make some calculations but looks like I'll probably end up going to SAIS instead of Georgetown probably unless they give me a fellowship over there.

    I just checked the portal as well— got into HNC Certificate + MA, but no update yet for the separate application just for the DC MA.
    I did not receive an email, only the portal was updated. Also said financial aid info will be sent later if any is given. Edit: oh I see you already posted that section of the letter Anthony, haha.
     
    Best of luck to those still refreshing!

    I think it would be appropriate. It could be short like this:
    "This is wonderful news. I look forward to receiving my official offer of admission later this month and responding once I have reviewed it and all my other academic options for the upcoming academic year."
    I was waitlisted, so I will probably write something similar. I wouldn't expect a reply, but it shows that you care as a candidate.

    I was recommended for admission with $30,000K a year in aid!! Incredibly excited but also wondering how long it will take to get a formal offer.

    That's what I got too. I'm assuming it's all but a formality, as far as waiting on the official letter. Like if between now and then they discover that someone lied on their applications or something, they could rescind the offer, but barring that, I think you're in!

    This is my #1!! It'd be cool to go 4/4, but even if I get into SAIS at this point, Georgetown is where I'll be! 
    I didn't get a financial aid offer either, unfortunately.  A bit of bummer, to be sure.
