I only found out about this requirement two weeks after submitting my application causing me to panic. Oh gosh, thank you for the info! I'm sending it to them now. Panicking slightly but choosing to believe that them notifying me this late into the cycle is a good sign... Au_DD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember reading their website in detail when I applied and it said that I didn't need them when submitting my app... I wonder if this is a sign? I got that too. I hope it means we are at least being seriously considered! polyglotaspiring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's amazing! Thanks for sharing. I'll look out for an update. For some reason, I recall coming across previous results that indicated end Feb (though there were 1-2 candidates who got calls/emails a few days earlier). I also remember thinking that it was nice of them to notify admitted/rejected/waitlisted candidates more or less together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they will be considering all "incomplete" applications. This info was not clear at all, I even reached out to the program coordinator and Graduate School at the time and no one replied ?

jjiffy Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 MIT rejection email here too. I figure Stanford is also a reject so this wraps up my cycle. Receiving the Berkeley acceptance a few weeks ago gave me hope heading into Columbia, Stanford, and MIT so I am a little bummed. But also I have 4 offers I am very grateful for. Overall a successful cycle! pbspoon, swanronson, PoliCommsGirl and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to those who got in! Tough luck. You have great acceptances! I'm at Harvard right now and took a graduate seminar at MIT last semester - honestly, I know they have a Security Studies specialty, but I liked everything about Harvard better!

honeymoow Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 For anyone else who's done with their cycle, I know it really helped me and other applicants to look at earlier years' results/lessons threads! pbspoon, CapTipps and theory_philosophy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modesteffect Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Claiming a Harvard waitlist.... fyi, their target is 15, and due to school requirement they are only allowed to run 15 active offers at one time. so they keep a short waitlist.
