ellcap Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Hi - any updates from KSG waitlisters? They said we'd hear after April 15th. Let's keep each other posted and fingers crossed for all! In the email I received from HKS on Mach 22, they said they would know after/around May 15th. Where did the April date come from? I understand that's when admitted students needed to accept/decline - but do we have any idea reason to think waitlist offers will be made anytime soon?

Mine said 'We will have a better idea of your prospects for admission after April 15' Ah - it's probably different for the MPP and MPA. Does anyone know by which date MPA2's need to accept/decline their offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colindc Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) If you look back historically for MPPers who got off the waitlist, they were notified around the end of April. But yes HKS said after May 15. But then they had said that admission notices would go out at the end of March and I got my notice of being waitlisted mid-March. So maybe it's a gimmick to mitigate over-zealous candidates or maybe they are in fact moving faster than anticipated. My question is are waitlisters on indefinitely until basically the first day of school? There is always the possibility of spots opening throughout the summer for whatever reason. So sure there could be a first batch at the end of this month or next but if we don't hear from them are we essentially waitlisted indefinitely?

TangyTinu Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 For MPA2, the accept/decline date was 15th April. Ah - it's probably different for the MPP and MPA. Does anyone know by which date MPA2's need to accept/decline their offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colindc Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Lol. They've been vague with me - did they tell you if folks would hear either way whether they got off or are not being considered? If they gave you a date that's good news if they are looking to waitlist! I called and asked... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jettinger Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Nice all. Any MPA-IDs? I just got in off the MPA/ID waitlist on Friday. Deciding between that and SAID ID with some $. Have to make a decision by the 28th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colindc Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Got in off the waitlist last Friday! Oh loans, loans and more loans. See you all in Fall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latte0708 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 hi,anyone off the waitlist international student? I wonder when can we start filling up our financial form in order to speed up the I20 form process. I've already paid my deposit. emailed the admission about this and housing...but nobody reply...looking forward to your help. btw, I'm thinking peabody terrace for housing. Am I right on the point that dorm rate actually won't cause much less than apartment shared at Peabody because meals are usually mandatory for dorm applicants. I'm a chinese girl who loves cooking~~~~Like to hear your advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddy0309 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Just thought I'd revive this thread for 2012 applicants. Anyone have any ideas on when we'll likely hear back from HKS for those on the waitlist? Financial aid is out in early April so I presume that's when most admitted people might make a decision? carlisle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enkayem Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 No clue. on the MPA-ID waitlist and have my fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlisle Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 notification letter stated mid-may. it seems like a few waitlisters got in late april last year, though. i'd imagine the admissions committee holds off on any waitlist decisions until at least after the april 15th deadline for admits.. waiting waiting waiting! it's driving me a little mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teddy0309 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Don't think that poster is referring to HKS, not in their sig. Yeah I thought we might hear by today as well based on last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
