I would double check your email to see if you have received it. If not, maybe reach out to them asking for the scholarship reconsideration form.
ia1995 Posted March 31, 2020 Posted March 31, 2020 Hi did anyone apply to harris MS-CAPP in Round 3? I'm an international student and I applied in Round 3 but now they've pushed back the deadline to April 28th. I'm wondering if they review applications on a rolling basis or altogether because, being an international student, this change in deadline will put me at a disadvantage (if they review them altogether after April 28th)

Guessing I'm not getting anything more ? Have you accepted the offer already? I'm guessing only those who have accepted their offers are getting additional money - does that sound right to you?

Expand @EspressoDoble, I did not accept the offer, yet I've got an increased award, meagre increase though but it's there. So I really don't know why they have not communicated their decision to all those who applied for reconsideration. Hope you too get a favourable communication, or rather check with them.

Haber Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 I've sent an email to Harris for deferment but have not received any intimation yet. Can anyone throw some light as to how to go about it. Is there any link in the portal or any other link of that sort. Unlike HKS which provides deferment option as part of admission response form, there is no such option at Harris.
PP2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Is anyone thinking about pursuing a dual degree MBA/MPP?

Do you know what the admissions rates are like for those who have gotten into Harris and apply during their first quarter? I'm wondering if it differs from those who apply before starting grad school...
drugur Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 Has anyone that applied cycle 3 heard back yet? If so, how long after submitting?
