hello.operator Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 i know the emails said we'd get financial aid info by march 30, but has anyone heard back about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonge0821 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I got MCMPA waitlist Was there a person who get off waitlist in past years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantgrad Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 i know the emails said we'd get financial aid info by march 30, but has anyone heard back about this? Nope. I asked them about the possibility of hearing before then because I have a March 31st scholarship deadline (they explicitly prefer applicants who have other sources of funding as well), but they said they will not be releasing anything before March 30th. Anyone been contacted for a Dubin, Gleitsman, or other fellowship interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melissa3644 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Gleitsman interviews were conducted on Tuesday, and I was told Dubin interviews were conducted on Wednesday and Zuckerman on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlily Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Gleitsman interviews were conducted on Tuesday, and I was told Dubin interviews were conducted on Wednesday and Zuckerman on Monday. Got it. Did you interview for Gleitsman? When did they schedule it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissa3644 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I did, yes. They emailed me last Friday to schedule it for Tuesday (3/20). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantgrad Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Thanks melissa. No fellowship for me then. They do have regular, non-fellowship scholarships too right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissa3644 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Yes, definitely. (Per the HKS website). I don't know this for sure, but it's my impression that they only conduct interviews for some of the fellowships. There are a few others that I *think* (again, I don't know this for sure) are awarded just on the basis of your essay, and still other scholarships just on the basis of your application. Don't lose hope yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12WardP Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Anxious to hear about aid on Friday! So, from previous years it looks like HKS will send an email out asking us to check our SPARKS account, where our aid will be listed? Can someone with more of an understanding walk me through the logistics of checking for an award? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niniwwf Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hey guys, If you were offered a full Scholarship from Stanford but zoro/partial funding from HKS (MPA2), which one will you choose? Do you think it is worthwhile to pay out of your pocket for the high costs at HKS? Especially when you have the choice to get a free ride at Stanford which is a good school as well? I am struggling at these thoughts so any opinions are welcomed! Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an excellent school and graduating debt free is really a big plus especially for IR / MPA carlisle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting funding from Zorro seems like a sweet deal (though I hear the tyrant-vanquishing work requirement is a bit of a burden).
