OMG ME TOO. I GOT OFF THE WAITLIST!!
 

Haha thats ok - thank you!! Any other MPA2 waitlisters? I think it's a small cohort - so have been struggling to find another person on the same boat!

Sending good vibes to everybody. Good luck! 
I was pretty much going to settle on my offer to UChicago Harris (25k per year, going to argue for more). But now this waitlisting from HKS changes a lot of perspectives. I am thinking to ask Harris for an extension for acceptance of admission, since I am waiting for Tufts as well. I submitted everything kind of late. 
Does anyone know how financial aids work for people who get off the waitlist?
Based on what I saw on this forum and HKS' admission blog, the situation really varies each year. Like @Anathema said, some people prob have better offers from Princeton WWS; plus, the yield might be lower this year. There is basically nothing we can do now. Let's keep the good vibe, and hope for the best!

Results are out!

I got to say these wild speculations - though labeled wild - sometimes are awfully accurate. The non-accurate ones also helped distract ourselves from the prolonged anxiety. I happened to also be applying to law schools at the same time. The r/lawschooladmission subreddit has even more wild speculations, along with vent, memes, all kinds of interactions that made the law school applicant community lively and ever more united. Yes yes, rationally speaking, our speculations might not be the most reliable source of information for admission, but they provide the emotions support that people like me needed. It'll be too cruel for me to just stare at my email, silently waiting for the results to come all by myself.

Hey everyone, longtime lurker here. I'm pretty sure the results will be released today. Earlier today I called financial services to reset my password for the MYFAID portal, and the kind gentleman on the other side of the phone jokingly said "Are you ready for the results?" and I asked "Is it going to be released today?" He said "I'm not confirming it but not I'm denying it."

Fingers crossed everyone! ?

Not necessarily. Stay positive. 

Mine too! Yay so exciting - it means they're working on the portal and we'll hear SOON!
 

I'm going to burn down my laptop if I see a late post about Matt's coffee machine...

All said and done, we are also anxiously waiting for the past few days and months for the results. So, each day is like an added burden to all of us. Although, we are trying to stay as calm as possible, we cannot ignore the fact that our eyes are glued to our email’s and blogposts. Hope we get the results today. 

Think it'll be tomorrow or Friday. I really hope it doesn't cascade to next week!! ?
