Marius G Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Has anyone heard from UMD School of Public Policy? It's the only university I heard nothing back and my application is still 'pending' on the application platform.

Did you apply to the Master's or the PhD program?

3dender Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 Fwiw, they were the last of 9 schools I heard back from last year. They also had the most generous offer (e.g., if you got that much money from GWU you will probably get a full ride from Maryland).
Marius G Posted March 28, 2018 Author Posted March 28, 2018 Thanks for the feedback, @3dender . I decided to wait for the results from UMD before I choose an offer, but it must before April 15. Last year you heard back from them before mid-April?

In any case you can always ask for an extension to get back to the other schools, most of them are prepared for that and are pretty flexible compared to say PhD programs.

I called them last week and they told me that my file is still under department review. If I don't hear until by Thursday, I will just give up on this one and choose one of the other universities. I think that you should also call them. If more people call, they may hurry up.
Marius G Posted April 11, 2018 Author Posted April 11, 2018 Just received my admission to UMDCP with a very generous package, but I already made my mind to go to GWU.
