bijinkei Posted December 2, 2019 Posted December 2, 2019 Just submitted my app last night....and so the wait begins...
Anathema Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Do we know the likely date for when decisions are going to be announced?

Anathema Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 I read on the HKS thread that someone received an acceptance letter. Has anyone else received one as well?

Expand Saw the same post but I am pretty sure Goldman's (or Berkeley's) policy is to release all decisions at the same time. He may be referring to the PhD is my guess.

Mcdreamy Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 I received acceptance letter from Berkeley for MPA. I don't know if they release decisions for all courses at the same time . Good luck to all .
WhoaThereWombat Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Based on previous years, I'm expecting to hear back this week. The waiting is driving me crazy!!
darkroastgopher Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Hi all! I'm a current Goldman MPP student as well as one of the volunteers to call new admits. We were told we'd be receiving the call lists "the week of March 7th" but haven't as of this time. If you weren't aware already, Berkeley's campus just shut down due to the COVID virus and all classes have been moved to 100% online instruction. I'm almost certain this is causing a bit of backlog with admissions notifications. That being said, I'd be surprised if the notifications weren't coming out this week. Fingers crossed that good news will be coming to you all soon! P.S. No worries if you don't get a call. When I was accepted (right away, not off the waitlist) I only got an email/change to my student portal. Same with other members of my cohort for no clear reason. atzarisc 1

Expand Whoa, thanks for the peek behind the curtain. (I didn't know that any admits got calls, thought it was exclusively email/portal change.) I also wouldn't be surprised if COVID-19 has impacted the admissions process, but I hope we don't have to wait much longer! Edited March 11, 2020 by WhoaThereWombat

I was expected to hear from the admissions office last week, but assume that with all that's going on it could take a bit longer.

keurimja Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 No word here either! Frantically refreshing my email at work right now ?
alli707 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 I received my rejection letter by email. Best of luck to everyone still waiting and congratulations to all who received acceptances!

ludile_gia Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) It’s an emailed result and I was rejected too. Maybe it’s good news for those who didn’t get it. Edited March 11, 2020 by ludile_gia
bijinkei Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Just got accepted via email!! No funding, but in-state tuition makes this the most affordable option for me.

ch442 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Accepted with a $20k departmental fellowship for the first year! No in-state tuition for me though.
