Jacksparrow123 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 I got waitlisted as well. Hopefully, if someone knows the likelihood of getting off the waitlist, they will comment.

neocturnal Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 I got accepted this morning to MSFS! But I can’t tell if they were supposed to send anything about finances in the offer letter or if them not adding anything about financial aid was an indication that I didn’t get any offers.

Same for me - I'm planning to reach out on Monday to ask.
ryrytwtw07 Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 I received the offer of MSFS with funding this early morning (Asia) as an international applicant.

I got accepted! A decision was randomly posted to my portal with no email notification. It doesn't say anything about funding either. Dill72 1
Dill72 Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Got the email saying decisions were released. I got in too!!!

It did not, which means I probably didn't get any funding. Not surprising considering I'm coming straight from undergrad.

I got accepted too! but no mention of funding either... wondering if I should email them about it or maybe I just got no funding at all lol. Did we all get no mention of funding whatsoever?

That's what it seems like. I haven't received any email or word from the program itself either, just the acceptance letter posted in the portal.

It would be hard to justify going to GT SSP with no scholarship versus a decent scholarship at GW. I might email SSP admissions and ask about funding though just to make sure
radastra Posted March 14, 2023 Posted March 14, 2023 I was accepted on Saturday morning (MSFS). I live in Asia, so that's Friday afternoon in the US. I received a scholarship worth 65% of tuition. Scholarship info was kind of hard to find, though. The email said to check my portal to see my admissions decision. At the bottom of the acceptance letter it said the following: The following letters are available for this account: Decision letter March 10, 2023 (Displayed) Merit-based financial aid letter March 10, 2023 I clicked the financial aid letter and that's where my scholarship info was reported. Hope this is helpful! mindlesslydreaming 1

I also am in at MSFS, but with no funding. Compared to $24K/year at SAIS and being in at the University of Tokyo (which is like $4k/year without aid), MSFS is looking like it's off the table. Still waiting for aid from SIPA. Jiali 1
