ir_gradstudent Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 While the admissions committee is unable to offer you fellowship support at this time, [...] Just got an email entitled "Elliott School Fellowship Support" announcing that I got no fellowship! Too bad, but I like being flat out told nothing is coming, unlike other schools which only let you know by omission. Bombaygunner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InternationalHopeful Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Just got an email entitled "Elliott School Fellowship Support" announcing that I got no fellowship! Too bad, but I like being flat out told nothing is coming, unlike other schools which only let you know by omission. Me as well. 0/3 on the funding. This is going to be a hard decision if Georgetown comes out the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) Me as well. 0/3 on the funding. This is going to be a hard decision if Georgetown comes out the same. Same on the funding situation. I wasn't even expecting to get into this program either to be honest. I'm still waiting on one more program as well. But, I admit that Elliott is my #1...and at this point it is cheaper than the other 3 programs that I have been accepted to. But, I really just don't know at this point.

notsosure Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Wow, I expected to get 12.000 $ financial aid in total - but having read the explanation of this obscure phrasing it seems I barely have to pay any tuition at GW... Reconsidering my options right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas445 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Wow, I expected to get 12.000 $ financial aid in total - but having read the explanation of this obscure phrasing it seems I barely have to pay any tuition at GW... Reconsidering my options right now. Haha, wasn't it just the worst to read through? I thought for a minute that I wasn't reading it correctly or just kept missing some key piece of information. It is worthy to note that GWU's Office of Graduate Admissions was quick to get back to me and answer my question. Some on these forums have said that they aren't terribly responsive so I had low expectations, but they got back to me within a few hours, which given the time of year, is a pretty good turnaround time. 12k per semester is an amazing offer, congrats asaretrede!

TWSHyastan Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I'm also still waiting. Stay positive, last year applicants were still recieving acceptance notices 6 days after the initial notices went out. Not sure what to make of this type of notification precedure.....

Hendo17 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'm still waiting as well. I am wondering if it is for the security studies program. Seems like those that are waiting are for that department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas445 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'm still waiting as well. I am wondering if it is for the security studies program. Seems like those that are waiting are for that department. I received my acceptance letter on the 16th and I applied to the Elliot School's Security Policy Studies program. It's probably less about the program and more to do with the large number of applications to sort through. Good luck friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roonil Wazlib Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Has anyone heard back about the Wolcott Foundation scholarship yet? Looking at posts from previous years it looks like they started notifying people in mid-March, even though their website says early April...
