Shadowscholar123 Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Just received a rejection email from WWS for the MPA. I think they're sending out decisions one by one now. Not bummed at all since I got into Yale Jackson, along with other schools. Now just hoping for some good funding from the schools I was accepted in... Good luck to everyone else!
RCtheSS Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Today's going to be full of activity on the Results Search. Best of luck to everyone who applied to HKS and WWS.

Ecook9416 Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Hey everyone, long time lurker but first time poster. Nerves are getting to me. I applied to: 1) GW Elliot for Security Policy studies - Security and Development 2) Pitt GSPIA: International Political Economy 3.) UMD College Park: MPP: International Security and Economic Policy and 4.) George Mason: Master's of International Commerce & Policy. Accepted into Pitt, no rejections yet. anyone hear back from maryland today? trying to figure out if its a concentration thing or why they accepted some and haven't got back to me yet, haha.
happygomucky Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 I was admitted to WWS MPP this morning. Absolutely delighted! I've also had my scholarship and stipend confirmed so I'm 95% sure I'll be attending WWS...but interested to see what Fletcher comes back with. I applied to SAIS but they don't offer fellowships for the MIPP so I've pretty much written it off already Mr123 1
UNC86 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 @Ecook9416 I am in the same boat as you for UMD. The portal changed from "Under Departmental Review" to "Under Graduate School Review," but they haven't released a decision for me yet. I'm interested in whether or not anyone on this forum was accepted. I think it's interesting that there was only one UMD update on the results page... Ecook9416 1

Ecook9416 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 @UNC86 yeah i'm still 'under departmental/program review', so I'm not sure what that tells either of us haha. I did see that there were two new submissions in the results search from college park, but like i wrote earlier, (my guess is that) these could be entirely dependent upon the concentration that those individuals chose, supposing that each individual concentration (ISEP, IDP) have their own review process as well.

UNC86 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 @Ecook9416 Just heard back from UMD. I got in, but was waitlisted for funding. It came in the form of an email with the admissions letter attached. My portal has not changed to include an admissions letter. So, I guess you can just be on the lookout for an email? They seem to be trickling out one at a time. Good luck! Ecook9416 1
Ecook9416 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) @UNC86 Thanks for the heads up! Congratulations on your acceptance! Bummer about the funding waitlist, but I suppose thats part of the game. I got bumped up to 'Under Graduate School Review' this morning, so I suppose I should hear back today or tomorrow. I'll be in DC on Saturday, so it would be nice to hear by then. Edited March 10, 2016 by Ecook9416
hina234 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 My UMD app also changed to "Under Graduate School Review" yesterday. Should be soon since the Open House is generally end of March.

They're just too expensive for zero funding. Edited March 10, 2016 by aslabchu
Ecook9416 Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Also was accepted, but waitlisted for funding. Still ecstatic. congrats to everyone else!! maybe we'll be classmates in a few months! UNC86 1

In the interest of your sanity, I wouldn't read too much into it. Good luck!

Transitioning Military Off Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 I Got accepted into SAIS, SIPA, GW, UW, and Fletcher so far, probably will attend SIPA. Any recommendations?
lbruneetoile Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Has anyone heard from Minnesota Humphrey re: funding? They said the deadline was the 15th so hopefully that comes today or tomorrow, but my decision pretty much hinges on what (if any) aid I receive from them. Argh, I thought after getting admitted I wouldn't have to wait anymore!

Argh, I thought after getting admitted I wouldn't have to wait anymore! Nope. I talked to a professor in the school last week who said they would try to make decisions soon but didn't know if they would also send out funding letters the same day or until later. Either way, they're also on spring break this week so I imagine they won't be sent out until next week at the earliest. Edited March 14, 2016 by Windmills
