I am only just reading this now so sorry wasnt able to respond. The dissapointment was to much for me (back then) You are absolutely correct it was my references and they let me down BIG TIME and they included Harvard Alumni who happened to be past shool mates.. so goes to show PICK YOUR REFERENCES VERY CAREFULLY.. By the way they dont have or need to say anything negative. Just have to be ordinary or just plain weak in thier letter. Anyway I got into JHU, Oxford, St. Andrews and Aberdeen however have chosed JHU because of funding. Will try and excpect to get into Harvard in the furture and now know how the game is played. Good Luck to ALL. will continue to check forum when I can. Cheers ALL !

Am at Johns Hopkins University studying towards my MA.

Sounds like that Prof. has "issues" ! YOU CAN DO ANYTHING AND DONT LET ANYONE TELL YOU OTHERWISE. Let us know "when" your in Grad school and the program. PS: Note its when and not IF. Cheers, Muna

I didnt get into HKS ( Mason Program) ! Its a tough feeling. ALL the best to those who made it !

I cant work or do anything productive right now am just in auto-pilot till I get my email .....

Mid-Career Mason Decisions This is another admission decision update post. Today, March 15, we will be sending out all Mid-Career Mason program decisions.

CONGRATULATIONS ! ALL who got in... For some of us the wait is still on ...

Just put your feet up and chill .... CONGRATULATIONS...

I thought blog said they will try and release ALL decisons at once ? Anyway we have no option but to sit and wait... tik.. tok..tik tok..

MonkeyPants BRAVO !

I think by March 23rd we will know *(MC/MPA) .. Thats 2 weeks from friday .. which is consistent with what SPARKS said i.e by end of March. Anyway lets keep thiis thread rolling and try to stay sane till we hear from HKS. Matt said in an earlier blog that he would communicate actual release date for final admission status. Lets keep reading his blog my friends

Lets try and stay positive folks.. the wait is tough and nerve wrecking I am going to try and keep away from my email for a day (not the cafe one) my school one since its what I used for my application. Today got a email on the process that goes into the wait-list and really ALL I want is an Offer with a FULL fellowship is that asking too much ?? Really ?? Well I asked so I trust I will recieve Tomorrow is another day .. for now its just the sound of silence and reading my applications over and over again trying to calculate and recalculate my chances ..God this is crazy... (yeah is anyone else doing that ?) you know logging in and opening the completed application reading the essays you wrote and your cv along with all available support documents .. AS IF ANYTHING CAN BE IMPROVED .. I had better get off this forum and back to work for now...GOOD LUCK Y'ALL

Congratulatiosn ! have you spoken to anyone there ? that would be a good thing..make contact.. and keep in touch. Hope it works out for you.

I applied to Oxford (BSG) for the MPP - focus area Energy and just got confirmation email two days ago that my application is complete and will be reviewed in March 9th deadline (I didnt apply for the Jan deadline) anyway decisions out by May 4th ... Good Luck !
