It seems they hided all the materials received and only left reference number and contact info? Is it just me or same for the rest of you? Thanks! Mine still shows the same with that in the beginning: the address, application # and the check list showing what I submitted and each item has the green stick next to it. Of course I can not review the documentations I submitted tho. Edited February 26, 2020 by KIMAMS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should just take a break from this mind game ? Asked us to fill a survey about how the application process was like. Suggested that we consider some summer language programs and linked us to interviews with program alumni. But nothing about whether I got in or not - they do use "if admitted" a lot in that email hahaha ax062320 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's hoping it's something like the "transcript drop" legend at LSE! I searched briefly to see if anyone mentioned this in previous years, but didn't see anything.

If both of my applications are successful, I'll probably just choose to do the MA exclusively in DC. My interest in China is more academic/political, so I probably won't want to be working there in the future, and networking in DC is more valuable to me than networking in China as a result.

The MPA (International Development specialization). Going into my 5th week of waiting, so I'm checking their portal constantly! For SAIS, I have to assume it's just standard procedure given that acceptances come out next week. My best guess would be that the documents disappear when our files are closed on their end (a decision either way has been made, not necessarily positive or negative), which is why you can no longer see the documents.

True. The only logical conclusion would be they don't offer wait list..so they don't need any additional documents. It's live or death.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be they ask people on the wait list to email them documents directly, etc. This all could and probably does mean nothing and we're all spinning in circles speculating haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AONomad Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I mean, taking the list of documents doesn't mean they no longer have access to them. It just means we don't have access to them, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked the portal now and once I filter for the 2 years MA, it totally seems same with yours but, if I look at MIEF section I see all of the list of materials. I applied for early notification but my application was deferred to the March and, I got an e-mail which states “we are not able to offer an admission for Summer 2020 at this moment So, we defer your application blablabla”. (On Dec 20) Mief Starting Date: Summer 2020 MA Starting Date: Fall 2020 They might have a final decision for the MA (accepted or rejected) and, undecided for the MIEF. Just my theory lol..

Lol yes i think this is more likely. I made a single application but had 1 new section created - exactly the same as the one i submitted. Since I applied for the certificate + MA, and since it is explicitly stated on the website that both are evaluated separately despite being 1 program, I reckon they close it once one side has finished their evaluation. 1 of my 2 sections was closed first, the other was just closed - 2 days later. So it is likely that both the MA and the Certificate side have come to some decision - hopefully it would be a positive on both sides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thediesel Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Did anyone who applied to Priscilla Mason Fund receive a confirmation for your submitted materials? I emailed them in before the deadline but didn't receive any type of response from the SAIS Admissions Office. I even submitted a follow-up email a few days later and heard nothing.
