MPP-2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Hi everyone, I'v read in other posts that some people had already received their admission decision to NYU Wagner MPA. But I havnt heard anything, good or bad... Anybody has any news? Thanks and best to all!
abogs78 Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Yes, I heard back from NYU about my admission on 2/26 around 7.30 pm EST. I don't know if this has to do with the fact that I applied for their fellowships since fellowship finalists are suppose to hear back by February and the rest of the decisions are posted by March 15th. I hope this helps.....Good luck
MPP-2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Author Posted March 3, 2011 Sure does, thanks a lot. Any body that didnt apply for fellowship has heard anything?? thanks!

CC139 Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 I applied to the MPA without fellowships and have not heard anything yet. ON the results board, there are some results from past year on march 5th and 8th, so I hope we hear something soon!
P07NYU14? Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Thanks for starting this thread! I've been wanting to ask the same thing. I applied on January 4th (just made the merit deadline) and haven't heard anything yet. Good luck everyone!

ched Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 Likewise... Applied Jan 4th (or 5th?). Haven't heard anything yet either...
hattaba Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 I got my decision on February 25th, However I had completed my application (including recommendations, mailed transcripts..etc) on December 9th, so maybe they're doing it on first come, first served basis.
MPP-2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Author Posted March 4, 2011 I guess people that didnt apply for fellowship will start hearing very soon then...
sanderson Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 I applied Dec. 22, so no fellowship, but yes merit, and haven't heard.
Quixotic Man Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 I applied Dec. 22, so no fellowship, but yes merit, and haven't heard. I applied to NYU Wagner for the EMPA course. I haven't seen any admission decisions for others applying to the EMPA. Anyone know if decisions for the MPA and EMPA will go out at different times? I read somewhere that decisions will take 10-12 weeks (or was it 8-12?) and this week is week ten for me since I submitted my application.
MPP-2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Author Posted March 8, 2011 Has anybody heard lately about Wagner MPA decisions? Thanks!
SubjectNotebook Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 I heard from them on 26/2. I got my app in on Dec 7 or 8 for the fellowships. Hope this helps. All the best! Has anybody heard lately about Wagner MPA decisions? Thanks!
CC139 Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 I thought that the non-fellowship applicants were going to hear yesterday... On the Wagner admissions page it says that decisions would be made by March 15, so we could have a whole week of waiting ahead of us.
par0677 Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Does anyone know if they sent out regular acceptances (merit, not fellowship deadline ppl) before the date posted on their website last year? I'm wondering if we'll see anything before the 15th. A week seems too long...
MPP-2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Posted March 9, 2011 I sure hope so... I dont think I can last another week without hearing from them.
cplanicka Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 I sure hope so... I dont think I can last another week without hearing from them. Hey, I heard late Tuesday (email with official decision letter attached). I had applied for the merit deadline (not the named fellowships), and got in with 4 credits per semester funding! Good luck to those still waiting, hopefully you will hear soon!
Quixotic Man Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Congrats! The merit deadline was Jan 5th, right? Or was there a different date for international/US applicants? I applied a week before the 5th and still no news. Hey, I heard late Tuesday (email with official decision letter attached).

P07NYU14? Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) Congrats! I had my application in JUST before the merit deadline (Jan 4) and I just heard yesterday. I received the same "amount" of funding (I applied for part-time so I received 2 credits per semester). Do you know how likely (given decent grades) that that funding will be renewed every year? Good luck to everyone still waiting! Hang in there! Hey, I heard late Tuesday (email with official decision letter attached).

Good luck to everyone still waiting! Hang in there! I also heard from Wagner yesterday and had applied on January 5th. They gave me a 2 credit a year tuition remission...Definitely not enough
MPP-2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Posted March 9, 2011 Ahhhhh!!! Why did so many people hear about their decision yesterday and still no news for me... now Im going crazy! I really hope they send some more decisions today! And congrats to all!
ched Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Ahhhhh!!! Why did so many people hear about their decision yesterday and still no news for me... now Im going crazy! I really hope they send some more decisions today! And congrats to all! I'm with you. I haven't heard either. Hoping that is a good thing... we shall see. For those admitted, did you by chance submit the "optional essay"? I ran out of time to write something worth submitting This was probably a mistake, but this process was more grueling than I had expected.
CC139 Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) I shouldn't worry about the optional essay. It was, after all, non-compulsory, so I hope it does not carry a lot of weight. I did not submit my GRE because I was so broke I couldn't afford to have it sent to an additional school, even though I took it well ahead of time and my scores were above average. I now see I should've sent it. Edited March 9, 2011 by CC139
ched Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 I was reviewing last year's thread on Wagner, and it appears they are very sporadic. First wave of acceptances comes through in early march, second wave was near the end of march. If you are waitlisted, you find out end of April if you are off the waitlist and declines are I think mid-end of March. But this is a new year, so hopefully, they have am earlier timeline....
dlmind Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Thanks! I got my application in by Jan 5th so hopefully they're not finished sending out acceptances for the first group!!
