taik Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Has anyone been accepted yet? I got a phonecall this morning from a professor saying that I am accepted but when I check my portal, it is not updated yet. Just want to make sure that I am not the only one whose portal is not updated but received the phonecall.

Just want to make sure that I am not the only one whose portal is not updated but received the phonecall. Congrats on your acceptance! I haven't heard anything either way, and my portal still says "submitted." I'm guessing that they might wait a few days to update the portals because they want to make phone calls to the accepted students first. Did they say anything about funding during your call?
taik Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 Thanks! Yes, I asked about the financial aids. The professor said that they already gave out some money the first round (not sure what it means...) but there will be more funding coming in and they will notify accepted students before 4/15.
maddieg Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 When you say they will notify accepted students before 4/15 - do you mean for funding or for admittance to the program?? I am anxiously waiting to hear from them!
taik Posted March 5, 2015 Author Posted March 5, 2015 I am not sure when MGH will finish contacting accepted students. The pre-4/15 answer was specifically to the funding question. So accepted students might still have chance getting funding notice before 4/15. Really don't know how this admission/funding process works but I will keep waiting to receive the financial packet.
speechie92 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 haven heard anything as well. im getting really angsty! ahh!
jwurth Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I got a call around 4pm today. No funding was offered which is unfortunate but MGH is my dream school so I may or may not have been close to happy tears on the phone.
phaedra Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Congratulations to everyone!!! I just received the call a couple of hours ago and was offered a 50% tuition scholarship, worth $40,000 total over the two years - I'm beyond excited! Definitely my top choice now. The professor who called me said she was in charge of calling all scholarship recipients. The admitted students day is 3/28, and I will definitely be attending. Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back! Looking at the results from last year, they called over a span of three days, so there's still time.
