mcrmpp Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 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 mjmcflurry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!

Shantaram Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 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. undergoat88, qwertympp and mjmcflurry 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPA2021 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 So how long do you think they will make us wait for aid offers? That's a huge part of my decision making. hholly77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthc2 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) 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.

Ontic Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undergoat88 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 If they don't get back to anyone with funding tonight, ima email them tomorrow to ask when they are going to tell people. I can't afford to wait much longer because I need to negotiate with other schools ASAP hholly77 and LaMarca 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaMarca Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 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. mppinwaiting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sl28 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 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... undergoat88, mppinwaiting and hholly77 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
