cheysadr Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Anyone else on the waitlist for the MPP at Berkeley Goldman? I'm in at every other program I applied to, but still waiting on the definitive decision from GSPP to make my choice. Just wish I could know for sure so I could start making some plans!

marksheppard Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 @cheysadr that's frustrating. I just got a straight denial, which sucks in its own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another-MPP-Applicant Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I'm on the waitlist at Goldman for MPP too and waiting for their decision, their timelines seem pretty far though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a chance you've heard back yet? I'm hoping not to have to ask for extensions for the other programs I'm considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greendno3 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Looking back at data from prior years, it looks like waitlist candidates were pulled in mid to late MAY. You're going to want to choose from your other options and give your deposit because no one will give you an extension that far, and your funding offers will likely be affected.

That's pretty bad. Thanks for pulling that info. So annoying but I guess they get to get away with it since they're ~Berkeley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brusselsprouts Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I'm also on the waitlist. The email I got said they would "know whether or not we will be able to offer spaces in next year's class to people on the wait list after April 22nd." Still haven't heard back, obviously - but curious, where did y'all see info about May being the time we'd hear back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheysadr Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 Heard back last night - I'm in! They did say they have allocated all of their funding awards already, so no go there. Good luck, y'all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brusselsprouts Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Congrats, @cheysadr! I also got an email last night and got in too! My letter said the same thing about funding (which was expected), so probably doesn't change things for me. But maybe doesn't hurt to ask, just in case...?

Cosmiccats Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Hi, i know this topic is from a couple of years back. I got on the waitlist for MPP at Berkeley this year too, and I wonder if there is anything I can do while I wait. The letter said do not supply more documents, but should we follow that instruction? or should we go ahead and reach out to the administration office and submit more documents anyway?
