polapp20 Posted February 18, 2020 Posted February 18, 2020 Didn't see a thread for WWS. For those waiting it out!
Haber Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Thanks @polapp20 for starting this. It's difficult not to return to gradcafe often in hope that someone has got some communication from schools they applied to. The process is excruciatingly long especially after you are free after having applied to all programs and have nothing to look forward to, except results. WWS blog hardly updates unlike HKS which has a new post almost everyday. I was just wondering if anyone received any communication from WWS for any document shortfall or any trivial update. Have this feeling they hardly communicate and are very professional unlike others which are communicative.
polapp20 Posted February 20, 2020 Author Posted February 20, 2020 @Haber I haven't heard anything either. Its really annoying. Weirdly the forums on here for the different schools are weirdly quiet as well. Which other schools have you applied to/heard from if you dont mind me asking ? Fingers crossed we hear back soon but I dont think its gonna be before March 12th.

Fingers crossed we hear back soon but I dont think its gonna be before March 12th. I have applied for WWS MPA, HKS MC/ MPA, SIPA MPA (Jan 5 deadline), Harris MPP (Jan 23 deadline) and Blavatnik MPP. So keeping my fingers crossed, eagerly waiting for results and fellowship notifications. Harris is due next week, I believe. All the best to you and everyone waiting out there.
GoldenWhale Posted February 25, 2020 Posted February 25, 2020 Hello! A little late to the forum, but was wondering if there were any other Rangel/Pickering/Payne Fellows that have applied to WWS this coming cycle? Always curious as to what kind of schools we all applied to, as well as where we will ultimately end up! Good luck to everyone!
spnfiim Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 Hi everyone. I have applied to WWS, HKS, SIPA and Ford School-UMichigan. Usually, WWS sends informal email to accepted candidates couple of days before their official announcement which coincides with HKS results day. Going by previous trends, HKS is supposedly announcing result on 12th March-> WWS official result also on 12th March-> Informal acceptance email on 10th March. See how anxious I am!! limeorange and HJ95 2
amr2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Not a lot of buzz in this thread which is super surprising! Does anyone know if the WWS informal acceptance on Weds would be a phone call or an email? fingers crossed!

PS thank you for all of this leg work on the date analysis... was thinking of doing the same. Now all we need is the actual TIME that people heard those days lol...

According last year’s thread, it seems like they sent the informal decisions out on March 13th (Wednesday) around 5:30pm EST. amr2020 and spnfiim 2
NYrunner Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Good luck everyone! Thanks for all the research on precedents for announcements in previous years. Making sure everyone saw the latest WWS Blog post - "Admission Decisions—coming this week" :) https://wws.princeton.edu/admissions/wws-blog/item/admission-decisions%E2%80%94coming-week spnfiim, scalmanac, Policy_Applicant2020 and 1 other 4
spnfiim Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Princeton says following- “Thank you for contacting Woodrow Wilson Graduate Admissions. Decisions will be release on or by March 15, 2020. We appreciate your patience.”

HopefulMPA Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 I didn’t get an email today; so if no one else did... maybe tomorrow? They have sent the informal acceptances on Wednesday the past two years... (or they did send emails today, and I got a de facto rejection haha)

Yeah either they're sending them out tomorrow OR I'm rejected lol.
Zenric Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Nothing here either! Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

AbSynthetic Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) This is so excruciating! Be out with it already? Edited March 12, 2020 by AbSynthetic
Policy_Applicant2020 Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 Don't think there is a point. They already said 15th March, no? Should be today or tomorrow. ? Covid-19 has just thrown people off. I am sure the AdComs are also grappling with dealing with a pandemic on a personal and professional level!

The last (only?) thing they said in the blog was "Official admissions decisions will arrive on or around March 15." Aka we're in for up to 3 more days of constantly refreshing our email and grad cafe......
