bness2002 Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 Anyone here applying for any of the SAIS programs (MIPP, MAGP, MIEF, MAs, etc.) for the early application round? The application is due by November 1, 2018 for this round. I am applying for the MIPP program, and I am hoping to turn in my application by mid-October.
Leo9 Posted September 30, 2018 Posted September 30, 2018 hey there i was going to apply for the Early notification but then gave second thought to edit my essays and now gonna apply for the Jan 5th deadline. Good luck!!
bness2002 Posted September 30, 2018 Author Posted September 30, 2018 Good luck to you too. I have everything written and ready to go. Just waiting on my recommendations in which both recommenders said they would finish by early Oct.
hammyc Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 Hey folks, I'm thinking of applying to the MA early notification, but my application isn't exactly as complete as it should be. I'm still in the midst of getting my LoRs together, drafting my SOP, not to mention taking the GRE on the 10th. On top of all this, I've got a job that takes up about 60 hours a week. My question is if early notification is worth rushing my application or not? Thanks!

Anyone who gets accepted in the (Master of Arts) early notification pool receives some tuition fellowship What that means: It means, if you apply directly to Johns Hopkins SAIS DC Master of Arts (MA), you automatically get some type of fellowship (or scholarship) added to your tuition just for being accepted into the early notification pool for the Master of Arts (MA) application.
gradskoolbound Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 Hey! I'm applying for early admission as well. I spoke to the admissions officer at a grad fair two weeks ago. He said that anyone accepted from early admission will receive at least 10k range, with the opportunity of more funding available after the regular admission deadline. Anyone who is not accepted will be waitlisted to the regular deadline. So sounds like a win win. I'm also kind of in a rush to get my SOP, LORs and GRE scores ready so I feel your pain @hammyc! If you don't get any of your information in time, at least you will be pushed to the regular deadline. Nothing will be denied.
bness2002 Posted October 8, 2018 Author Posted October 8, 2018 @kjasmin310 Are you applying to the regular MA program ?
politicalprincess Posted October 11, 2018 Posted October 11, 2018 I wish I had been able to apply early notification! I had no idea that the SAIS early deadline was so... early and I just won't have my GRE scores in by then!

bness2002 Posted October 22, 2018 Author Posted October 22, 2018 Hope everyone had a great weekend ! I just submitted my MIPP application for the early round notification about an hour ago. However, 2 of 3 of my recommendations are in and the 3rd one will be submitted by this week. I wish everyone the best of luck.

mliliu Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 I submitted my application for early notification! I am very anxious right now, hoping to get a decision from SAIS as soon as possible.

I received an email from them late last week and they indicated the decision will be emailed on Dec 21.
somewhatslightlydazed Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 Anyone else on here applying early for SAIS Europe? I had my interview with them last week and felt good about it, but the next few weeks of waiting are going to be rough... Do all the early decisions come out on the same day or are they different for DC vs Bologna?

I believe notifications are being released for all of early round applications on Dec 21. https://www.sais-jhu.edu/content/admissions#important-dates

Have you applied for early notification?

bness2002 Posted December 20, 2018 Author Posted December 20, 2018 December 21 is almost here - Fingers crossed. Do they send an email to you about letting know if you are in or not OR do you find out through the application portal?

I think schools normally send out an email and, in the meantime, the application portal will be updated.
somewhatslightlydazed Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 Just got admitted to SAIS Europe! (DC decisions may be coming out later today) No word on funding yet - I'm hoping that'll come out later today but it might not be until March, not sure how that works with the Bologna campus...
Indian_2019 Posted December 21, 2018 Posted December 21, 2018 Hi, congratulations! Did you receive an email? Were you also given a deadline by which you have to confirm your admit?
