Hey There,

Nope, I didn't receive anything in the mail again today! That's some good info you got from the admissions office.... I'm almost beyond caring... (almost)

Hey D,

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. CIR Is not my first choice either, but I'm very attracted to the program based on the length (1yr vs 2 for most). I also have heard that CIR is a good migration program for moving to a PHD. I had assumed that we would hear from CIR soon, since their application deadline was a bit earlier than the other programs I'm waiting on. I havent heard from any yet, nerve-wracking!!

Thanks for the note and the update, B. CIR is not my clear first choice, but it's the only IR program that I applied to and will be seriously considering it if I get in. I applied to two other MA programs (both MPA), just to diversify my "portfolio" a little. I went to a small liberal arts college in the east coast and my professors told me that CIR was one of the best places to go to if I wanted to do PhD in either economics or political science afterwards (I guess it's because of its analytical -- mathematical? -- rigor) there or elsewhere. I looked at the time from last year when they sent out their results (from this forum) and it seems like they send them out in the first week of March. That's why I am losing patience. I live in Philadelphia. How about you?

DAACTOR, I applied to the CIR program as well. I haven't heard anything yet, I contacted the admissions coordinator about a month ago because my online application page hadnt been updated. She responded that it was just a clerical error and they have everything they need from me, and that my application was already in committee. Where is your current location? Is CIR your first choice?
