graduate2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Congrats to all! Got accepted to SIPA MIA with a $60k total package ($30k/year). Waiting on HKS but will have to decide b/w SIPA, SAIS, Harris, Fletcher, and McCourt within the next month. Very stressful times! Yass and Spunkydudette 1 1
CYCP Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 In as well, $120k ($60k/year). Acceptance and scholarship letters came simultaneously. Dwar 1
Mich3909 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 In ? whew that was worth the wait! Congrats to everyone! Looking forward to studying with you all next fall.
thediesel Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Well, that’s a wrap then. In with no aid is as good as a rejection. Hope my spot can go to someone on the waitlist. KarenUC and ehallwyo 2
joyzhc Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Do you guys all receive the consequences ? I haven't received any emails and my application portal is still not changed.

I will wait until HKS decisions are released (hopefully by next week) to make my final determination. Congratulations on Johns Hopkins by the way! Thank you! Yeah, I'm also waiting to hear back from HKS even though my hopes aren't that high... Fingers crossed keurimja 1

Accepted to Georgetown, SAIS, SIPA and Fletcher... now just waiting on HKS. I received the aforementioned language ... “in the next few weeks.... cost of attendance... possible sources of aid” ... I’m presuming this means I did not receive any scholarship assistance/shouldn’t expect any in the coming weeks? Would appreciate any thoughts on the matter. Congrats to all! ? Yass 1

carriposa22 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 I got in too! Congratulations to everyone who got in! This group has been really helpful when I was anxiously waiting for the decision, so thank you. Wish you all the best for your future endeavours! LazarusRises 1
gr2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Waitlisted. Disappointed it wasn't a yes but at least the silver lining is it wasn't an outright rejection. Congrats to everyone who got in, and hopefully I can join you all this fall!
Policy_Applicant2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Got in. Generous aid along with fellowship ? Thanks guys! LazarusRises 1

Congrats on all your acceptances! Perhaps, we can pick each other’s brain later to weigh options. If I were you, I’d wait till HKS is out. And then, negotiate with schools with the best offer in your hands as your leverage (e.g. I’ll reach out to Fletcher to see if they can match SAIS’s offer). Spunkydudette 1
