News from NYU Wagner MPA?


Recommended Posts

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

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!

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.

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.

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.

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...

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!

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.

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!

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 :(

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.

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.

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....
