Lily98 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Did anyone here apply for the masters in history as well? We were supposed to hear back by mid feb but it’s been crickets for me lol I didn’t expect to get in but I expected to maybe get the rejection letter by now

Not sure if that means there was no funding given or if it comes later, my guess is that it's the former. Ugh yes this does not bode well:Admitted Student Questions How much estimated financial aid will I receive? If you have been admitted to a program and the department has decided to offer you a fellowship, assistantship, or scholarship, the amount of your award will be included in your admission letter.

Weird that no one on here has reported any aid today though
MPAspire Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Hey guys, funding details are on the portal as well, at the bottom of the page (there should be a separate link) International student, got into MSFS with a $20K scholarship! Edited March 15, 2021 by MPAspire mildlyconfusedmar, PupCakes and Rheana Gray 3
musicaflores Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 still nothing on my end.. they are probably sending decisions in waves.
kl1994 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hey everyone! For my own sanity I've been trying to not follow this page for the last two weeks; however, that has been a miserable failure haha. Figured I might as well add another data point for others: I was accepted to the MSFS program approximately 30 minutes ago, but I received no information about funding... PupCakes 1
Ravine55 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Got in as well! Can't seem to find the link to the funding notice. Anyone else have this issue, or am I out of luck? PupCakes 1

szadah Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 I got into the MSFS program with a 16,400 scholarship per semester. No mention if that funding rolls over to the next academic year... PupCakes and Rheana Gray 2

DargSchoolDarg Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Waitlisted for MSFS, looking like SAIS for me! Congrats to everyone that was accepted! francophile_1 1
Toastandbeans Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 I was also waitlisted for MSFS. Wondering what percentage is waitlisted? technically admissions are open until April 1st...
mskros Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Rejected from both SSP and MSFS - congrats to those who were accepted though! TradeRacists4Refugees 1
PupCakes Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hi all, current MSFS student here. Just wanted to say congratulations to all the new admits! Looking forward to meeting all of you who decide to to come to hilltop! kl1994 and EscapingBrexit 2

I'm leaning towards SAIS MAIR right now, but the program might be too generalist for me since I am more interested in national security policy, which SSP specializes in. That said, SAIS also seems more prestigious, which counts for something. Thanks for your response. Good luck with your decision!

My guess is if you have received nothing yet you’re probably waitlisted. When my wife got waitlisted for grad school they didn’t really tell her she just had to sweat it til they sent her an acceptance later. I think if you were rejected you’d hear by now.

Makes sense, thanks for the reply!
francophile_1 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Also waitlisted! Excited to not be rejected!! And considering the fact I was job searching while applying to grad school this is absolutely thrilling!! Edited March 15, 2021 by francophile_1 Toastandbeans and Rheana Gray 2

ggnr Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hi, everyone! International student here Has anyone who applied to the Arab Studies Program heard anything yet?

kl1994 Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 I am surprised we haven't seen more people on here with funding attached to their acceptance letter. GU MSFS website claims that they aim to award merit scholarships to 30-40% of the incoming class. I know we have a small sample here, but generally people following these pages exceed the school statistics.
