  1. Joel Hellman, the dean of Georgetown University’s Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, said that the excitement was also trickling to academic programs that train future diplomats. Applications to the school’s graduate programs, including its masters of science degree in foreign service, jumped 40 percent this cycle, he said, the single largest increase in “living memory."

    That’s true, I’m sure we will hear from SSP this week at some point. Has anyone that was admitted had info about aid on the admission letter from grad school of arts and sciences?

     

    fyi that's how admissions works, the grad school of arts and science sends acceptances and funding. if you got none, you got none. only emails i'd expect now are probably from ssp inviting you to an open house or something

  3. Got into both programs I applied for (Georgetown Asian Studies and Security Studies) but got no money from either so I'm probably not going to grad school anymore :)

     

    Applied on a whim due to pandemic and waived GRE, already employed, was gonna attend for personal enjoyment. But 75k+ for "personal enjoyment" is a bit expensive. That's a lot of personal enjoyment traveling the world five times over.

    Hey folks--2018 SSP admit here.  SSP admits who receive scholarships receive informal offers early.  I received a small scholarship, so I got a phone call on (Monday) 3/12/18 at around 12pm EST from the Director of Admissions.  I received my official acceptance on (Friday) 3/16/18 at around 5pm EST.

    That said, just because you didn't receive the informal acceptance yet doesn't mean an official acceptance isn't coming!  Still very much a possibility.  SSP (and all of SFS, for that matter) has limited funding for scholarships.

     

    this makes me feel even worse but i still appreciate you posting! haha
