ballofstress Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 10 minutes ago, natpvh72 said: Hi. Thanks for letting people know. I applied to Mizzou and was rejected. Thought I had a good shot so I was a bit surprised to get the news. I was actually going to ask Mizzou for some suggestions for improvement on my application... But why does the program not accept applications in the first place, rather than receiving them and then not admitting anyone? That is a great question. I think they were back and forth if they could accept applications, and at the time of the application they thought they could. But, even though I go here, it took a lot of emails and zoom meetings to even figure that out. natpvh72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would email the DGS, they have been responsive and helpful in my discussions with them. Same here! Has anyone heard from Harvard? Still no news by email or portal. Seems they've sent out most of their acceptances already, but wondering if anyone has actually received a rejection yet.

POLPHI Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 5 hours ago, FranklinKing said: Hi everyone! Long time observer, first time posting. I was wondering if anyone's heard back from BC since the last time people were talking about it in this thread (Jan 23-Feb 9, according to the search results). I'm getting very anxious and I'm debating if I should call the department to see when I should expect to hear back. I'd much rather email them but there's no address available for the department.. Here are my admission results so far (all PhD programs)- Accepted: SUNY Buffalo Rejected: Maryland, Missouri, UVA, USC, Colorado-Boulder Pending: Boston College, Georgetown My subfield is IR/comparative. This is my third time applying for PhD, and I feel like this cycle's been the most brutal. I hope everyone's taking care of themselves mentally and physically. Congratulations to all those who got in to their top choice programs, and best of luck to those still waiting! I applied for the MA in political science program in BC and heard from them on Feb. 1st.

Operating with the working assumption that it's a rejection though, because it seems like acceptances and waitlists have both gone out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djuric Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 18 hours ago, haribo21 said: Hi I recently checked the past thread of MAPSS and realized that most of acceptance offer of MAPSS will be conveyed via portal not email. But I cannot find other portal except the application portal. And I do not have "my UChicago account" email. Do you already have this kind of account? And could you give me the exact address of portal to check the decision letter? Thank you. Hi! Not sure if this answers your question or you already know this, but when you enter the portal, top right corner has a small drop-down option titled "Other Applications". Choose "2021 REF MA MAPSS". Voila. When decision is up, probably that little envelope icon will appear. haribo21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
