In the past years they also posted about the 3 categories of applicants (admitted - waitlisted - rejected) before writing on the name reading post! It should be either 13 or 14 I guess! Expand That series started today! With the not-admitted post down, only waitlisted, admitted, and name reading posts remain. For sure, nothing will be released this week (mentioned in the blog), but I'm thinking it's possible that it could even be Tuesday (12th).

MPPhopeful322 Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Did anyone else's documents/messages tab disappear on MYFAID??? UPDATE: False alarm. I checked last year's thread. Doesn't seem to correlate with acceptances/rejections. Nothing to see here, folks! Edited March 8, 2019 by MPPhopeful322

Compared to last few years, this time the HKS forum at Gradcafe is quiet.
hksdreamin Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Isn't the name reading post on the same day as the actual results? If so, shouldn't they be out 3/13? Also, there may be less traffic here because of softer applicant numbers.

bac Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 I think there are fewer posts because many of us read last year’s thread and so we know the timing and aren’t as anxious because we’re not playing as much of a guessing game - which is good!

MPPhopeful322 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 So, I know in past years, the text above the Admissions and Financial Aid buttons on the portal disappeared. Mine is still there. Curious if it has disappeared for anyone?

Expand Sorry, I missed mentioning one pending blog entry - "how applicants will learn of their decision/ acceptance deadline" - when I wrote my earlier post. So that leaves at least three more blog posts - how applicants, admitted category, and name reading. Assuming no other blog posts from student life insight series or such, the last of these three blog posts should happen on 14th morning EST and the results released 15th post noon EST. Time has never moved slower! Edited March 12, 2019 by mcmpa Did not mention date

Anyway, we shall get to know in next three days. All the best to all who applied.

European2909 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Let's see if we get the "admitted category" or the "how applicants", today! (I'm based in Asia and here it's already Tuesday)
SC88 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 "How We Communicate Admission Decisions" post is up. Any chance of another blog entry today or do they strictly follow this one post a day schedule

So if those in this forum are correct that would leave two more days for the admitted students & name reading posts and then decisions on Friday..
worldleader2018 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 This wait is just so tough, especially as other schools are out now -- all I can dream about is HKS. Best of luck to all. Let's hope we hear this week!
