Yes - less than previous years, meaning a smaller application pool. Although its nothing too drastic, only 5% i believe. Anything helps though Zendetta 1

I did some digging and found the first posts reporting results in each year's SIPA MPA admissions thread: 2019: 3/11, 6:30 PM EST 2018: 3/9, 3:43 PM EST 2017: 3/10, 11:36 AM EST 2016: 3/7, 5:24 PM EST In other words, it could be literally any minute. Boy am I glad I spent my time on that, it's helped me calm down exactly none. For what it's worth, I appreciate you doing that research.

Because i am also insane and procrastinating at work, i looked it up and found that each of those dates is either the first friday of March or the following monday... meaning SIPA is *gasp* later in releasing decisions than they have been in the past 4 years.

amr2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 losing hope for today.... ugh. so frustrating not to know when we will hear!
PP2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Waiting it out until 7 EST today!! Let's hope today is the day! amr2020 and carriposa22 2
carriposa22 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) I keep refreshing this page and my email like crazy! Like some of you have pointed out, this is unusual of SIPA since they announced the decision earlier in the past. Fingers crossed it will be today! I don't think I can sleep tonight (it's almost midnight where I am!) Edited March 10, 2020 by carriposa22 amr2020, Mich3909 and KIMAMS 3
amr2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Is there any chance they update the portal without ever sending an email? That's how Wagner did it a couple weeks ago.

In my experience with other schools, the email gets sent within a couple hours after the portal is updated. The fastest way to know is to check the portal (or here because people will definitely say something). amr2020 and Mateo Cruz 2

I was accepted in the early round and my checklist is still present, FWIW (though it may disappear once the remainder of notifications are sent).

That is a good data point to know. All the other schools that use the same application system (Yale, Johns Hopkins SAIS, etc.) that I've encountered tend to hide the checklist before releasing. I guess hiding the checklist is not a requirement.

Wasn't expecting it at night and had just poured myself a whiskey and was firing up Star Wars. You know, that whole thing about a watched pot.. Mich3909 and LazarusRises 2

Both my previous acceptances came in at night after I'd given up on the infinite-refresh cycle. Would that I could make myself do that now...
AndresFML Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Guys, I was admitted during the early action but still my stress is at dangerous levels. I keep refreshing this forum every 20 minutes from my office... BTW, thank you for all the info you’ve shared, it’s made my wait a little easier. Karam2022 1

spnfiim Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Guys, I got to know that admission results of MPA-EPM (SIPA) have already been declared yesterday. It is confirmed and I have seen result of a close friend myself. So, in all likelihood, expect the MPA results today at its regular time. n_eb_2020 1
