somewhatslightlydazed Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Anyone else here apply for Fletcher early? Based on previous years, decisions might come out in a few days (seems like it was 12/13 last year, 12/14 the year before that, though their website only says by 1/1) - hoping we hear soon! Some background on me: applying to the MALD program, hoping to concentrate in human security and Southwest Asia. I really like Tufts's culture and the flexibility of their curriculum, so if I get enough scholarship funds it'll definitely be one of my top choices. Feeling pretty good about my admissions chances (high Arabic proficiency, good GPA/GRE scores, felt like my interview went really well), but no idea how finances will turn out...

Thirteen Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I got an email last night while I was asleep (in Asia) and I'm in. A huge weight off my shoulders as Fletcher is one of my top choices. For those interested my stats were 3.7GPA, 159V, 153Q, 4.5AWA, a PCV with intermediate Mandarin, and 2 State Dept internships. Now gotta wait for scholarship $ in the coming months but it's great to get that first acceptance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my Fletcher and SIPA acceptances within an hour of each other so it's been a great afternoon Edited December 15, 2018 by somewhatslightlydazed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAP0217 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I’m in Southern East Asia and I woke up to an acceptance email this morning! Super pumped to hear back so early. For those lurking like I did, I will have five years work experience by the time I enter with three years abroad. 164/164/6 on the GREs, 3.76 GPA, and advanced in two foreign languages.

Amerikanets Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Applied for early notification, they pushed back my decision into regular decision, but I still got in with a $10k scholarship. I was surprised to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoboPresident Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Applied really late to Fletcher. In like mid February. Just got an admittance with funding listed as a separate pdf. Only 20k but that’s still better than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varada.s Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Did anyone get into Fletcher for MIB? I got an offer from Fletcher MIB with 25k funding per year. And I also got an offer from Chicago Harris with 10k funding. Now I am not sure which school I should take up. I want to work in development consulting. I am an economics grad from India with 2 years of private sector work ex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
