Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, most here seem to be aiming for PhD degrees. I am applying for a MA in IR. I have heard from a few schools (positively) already that I am considering going to, but have a couple reach schools as well. Anyone here have an idea about my chances for acceptance to Elliot School and when they typically hand out decisions? (I won't even bother you with my other reach, because my arms aren't nearly long enough).

I majored in International Studies (geographical focus E Europe/Russia; thematic focus politics) and minored in Russian at UNC-CH. My GPA is a very unspectacular 3.0. Did well enough on the GRE i guess - 650Q/710V/4.5W. I have spent the past two years working in Ukraine as a Peace Corps volunteer. I speak Russian at an advanced level.

I have heard from a couple of good programs already, so feel free to be brutally honest with me if you feel I have no shot, just looking for input. Applying for schools from abroad (and very rural abroad at that) has limited my access to information, so anything you all have is great.

Thanks
