Oof -- rejected! Looks like I'll be off to either American or UMD since they both gave me some good funding. Not sure how I'm going to choose so if anyone has any advice.... lmk

Everything happens for a reason! 

But I personally would go with American. Their MPP program is fairly comparable to GW. I would also look at your aid packages between the two schools to see which one has a lower overall cost of attendance if that plays a factor!

Rejected from the MPA program. The status was updated this morning. Definitely disappointing but I'm fortunate to have options between SIPA, Wagner, & McCourt. Congratulations to everyone who got in! Fantastic news and go (safely) celebrate it with loved ones.

My portal just updated! I was accepted into the MPA (without funding)!

For those wondering, my GPA was 3.65 and my SOI was just okay; 7 or 8/10. My letters of rec were both very strong; 9/10 overall at least. It is coming for y'all as well.

I also just got in to the MPP program with no fellowships/assistantships.

Just got in without a fellowship/assistantship. I didn’t expect GW to end up being affordable for me, but it’s nice to formally put it in the “no” column.

Finally heard back that I was accepted for MPP! they said they would send an email on funding "shortly", whatever that means. Please post if you hear back on funding! Hard to make a decision otherwise.

I emailed asking about funding timelines and was told funding details email will go out 5-10 business days after an admission offer and that they are working hard to get the information out as soon as possible. Really hope it is not another week of this...
