legallyproper Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 The only secret ingredient is honestly my experiences throughout undergrad that I was afforded with foreign government, US government, legal, non-governmental, military intelligence, and philanthropic public service internships that I completed (10 throughout undergrad) and being afforded the opportunity to become a Charles B. Rangel Scholar last summer (this opportunity opened so many doors it's unbelievable!) Best of luck to you godlessangel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgreenster Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 according to the results page, UT-Austin LBJ has sent out a rejection. and so it begins... Yikes, here we go.... I'm really lucky, and I think I may be less crazy now that I heard from Georgetown and know I can legitimately go somewhere. The funding thing was stressing me out - I was so scared I'd actually get in places and then not be able to afford to go anywhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inquisitive87 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Legallyproper: Your signature says that you got pretty decent funding for SPEA, but I'm curious about where it came from? SPEA's office just said that they haven't announced fin aid at all yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenderpete Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I just got into American SIS :D :D Full tuition plus stipend. I can't quite believe it. Woke up this morning (7PM EST) in Nepal to some fairly life changing news. Regardless of what happens now, I can relax and know wherever I go next, it's going to be East Coast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenderpete Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 =( My financial aid section has no information. I wouldn't worry yet, I'm an international student so they may well be dealing with us lot first. The funding I got is earmarked for non-US citizens. I can imagine funding for US citizens is very very competitive. Congrats on the acceptance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rose1 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Got my first acceptance letter! Admitted to SIS. Very little funding though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What program? Your profile says MA Intl Development. In that case, I got into the IDEV Program as well, with the same award. And we're from neighboring countries, so that is also exciting. Are you going to be going there for sure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

readyornot Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Seems that the NYU Wagner decisions are coming out - got in earlier today! Anyone else hear back from them? I have heard they are quite stingy with funding though so anxious to hear about that in the next few days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we're from neighboring countries, so that is also exciting. Are you going to be going there for sure? I went for the IPCR as it's a perfect mix of conflict resolution/development for me. I'm actually working in Nepal at the minute, but from the UK. Thanks a lot to all the other well wishers. Having sat on this forum before and watched rejection after rejection roll in I can't quite tell you how good it feels to be on the other end In terms of whether I take the offer it'll be down to whether I get in anywhere else and if I did manage to, what funding they offer. I'd be nuts to turn down a free MA for anything less than the same elsewhere though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DualCitizenIR Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Congratulations fenderpete, Rose, and bgreenster! I didn't get anything yet, but hopefully I won't have to wait too long now. Crossing my fingers for some funding too! Good luck to everyone else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
