KIMAMS Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Anyone has his application portal changed? it seems that until last year, before they released the result people's portals had some changes but it is still silent this year, so I guess we will need to wait longer...also consider the virus...

KIMAMS Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Deal!!! I'll bring some of our best bottles: Hakkaizan, Kubota, Dassai, etc.. to Cambridge ? Edited March 11, 2020 by KIMAMS justaname 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spnfiim Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) I think HKS is also monitoring this forum and playing with us!! ?? I also agree that two posts have never come on same date. At this point, if they want to share alumni news then they shouldn’t release another post which is more awaited. The post of alumni will loose its significance. Having said so, I still think they should release result tomorrow because that way HKS gets some extra time to release FinAid results. It keeps sanity of those who are selected (but not funded) in check. Otherwise, just think that you get selected for your dream program and still not being funded. You will not be sure how to react!! So, unless HKS team wants to work on weekends, they must release admission results tomorrow and FinAid day-after. This year, a few creative blogs have come up from HKS, and few routine ones dropped (like blog with letter heads and pens in sight). Could it be possible that HKS combines “Admitted category” and “status update” blog together? Or, as already discussed, another blog today, may be later in the day? Or, Two separate blogs tomorrow? With HKS everything is possible!! All the best guys!! Edited March 11, 2020 by spnfiim KIMAMS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaka26 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I'd hope that the decisions are posted this week, since Harvard goes into Spring Break next week. KIMAMS and spnfiim 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covid-20 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hey guys, newbie here. I ve got a question for you all. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. I am applying to the 2year MPA and my partner is applying to Harvard Law LLM. This fact was made explicit in my optional essay Is this an advantage or a disadvantage? I have a strong application, with 90th percentile GRE scores and very good recommendations letters; and my partner was top 8% of her class, also good recommendations, but no publications or academic work? Thanks guys, and good luck to all of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I see, it will have zero influence on your evaluation, neither advantage nor disadvantage...my two cents...

I don't think your co-application to Harvard with your partner will play any correlated role in your own application as both schools operate applications in different way with independent admissions committees. Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2020666 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 At first I just want to know and also don’t want to know the result. kind of contradictory... Admission Anticipation and worry about rejection...But after this anxiety torture, I would like to know the result immediately.... At least I have Sipa-epm and Cornell MPA offer...Harvard just do me a favor ok...omg what am I talking about... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
