Lol! Yeah, I think WWS might notify us on Thursday or Friday of next week. I probably wake up, read my rejection letter, and then fall back to sleep. My ego may have met its match with WWS

wasistdas Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 the SIS admission login page is down for "scheduled maintenance." Spidey sense tells me decisions are a-coming.

US Foreign Policy?

I was lucky enough to meet with a couple of grads from the program and they suggested that tract over peace/conflict resolution. I was obviously a bit hopeful about the site being down, so sick of this process.

Just a couple more weeks . . . a couple of slow, torturous, painful, etc. etc. weeks If you happen to get into all your schools, what's your order of preference?

Short answer: whatever school gives the best financial aid package. I didn't apply to any school I wouldn't be happy to go to. Long Answer: my wife has also been accepted to Ph.D. in Education programs in both geographic areas, so we will need to sit down with all of our acceptances and make a family decision. of course, a full-tuition scholarship at Georgetown is basically impossible to turn down, but that ain't happening.

Yeah I am in at American, Elliott, Fletcher and SOAS, but rejected at Oxford, Cambridge, LSE and (surprisingly) BU. Not bad for an online eight-ball. Haha if only we could get our real notifications this easily and quickly.

I've only heard back from American so far. Anyone heard from Georgetown MSFS or SAIS?

Wow. The Magic 8 Ball is right so far - heard back from both Gtown and AU yesterday. Guess I should brace myself for my last two to be rejections!

Anyone heard from Georgetown MSFS or SAIS? I think DualCitizen was responding to the Magic 8 ball predictions . Folks have yet to hear back from SAIS, MSFS, or Elliot IR. SAIS said theirs would come out around the 14th and Elliot thereabouts as well.
wantgrad Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 ahhh hahaha ok that makes sense. Clearly I need to see my doctor about the chill pill prescription.

Maybe I should ask it about funding, too?

There goes THAT plan I think it may be really messed up that I'm almost disappointed it wasn't right simply because that would have been crazy. (but only *almost* since I really like UT ha)
msal Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Hey SarahL, why did you choose SAIS over SIPA and MSFS? could you tell, if you don't mind...
rose1 Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 I keep seeing people saying they got into Georgetown but I don't think anybody has heard back from SFS yet.
