kasbah Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 In the threads from last year, it looks like funding letters came separately but the same day as acceptances. I don't think they released their decision letters on a Friday afternoon though, so we might have to wait until Monday.
billythekid72 Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Congratulations to all those who have been accepted! Has anyone heard back from the International Trade and Investment Policy program?
MKrys Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Just found out I was accepted to the International Affairs program! Someone in the results page said they had a phone call and were told next week for funding notification. Fingers crossed! SIS gave me nothing.
pyrhuss Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Did anyone hear from the International Development program? Also, what is the acceptance deadline you guys had in your letters? That might be a pointer towards funding or no funding.

The acceptance deadline is May 1st.

Looks like a long weekend of waiting.

ursusinopinatus Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 Hi everyone, I'm in the same boat you all are in –I was accepted but I haven't been told anything about funding yet. However, today something weird happened. I got an email from a member of GWU's faculty congratulating me for being accepted and inviting me to go to the admitted student day or to go sit in on a class. That person also said I had expressed interest in working with him/her (unspecified to maintain anonymity), but I never did so! Is this common practice in the US? He/she specializes in the region I'm from, so maybe that's it. Or could it be a simple mistake? By the way, I made this account in order to post this, but I've been lurking here for a long time now. Thanks everyone and good luck!

coffeeandtravel Posted March 14, 2016 Posted March 14, 2016 So, has anyone heard about when we'll find out about funding?

hina234 Posted March 15, 2016 Author Posted March 15, 2016 I think the funding letters might come out early April? The sole reason for this guess is that Wolcott Fellowship recipients are announced early April. I haven't talked to anyone in Admissions.

manutdftw Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) Yea I feel like they came out mid-March last year. Edited March 16, 2016 by manutdftw
HieronymusB Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I don't know if I'm alone here, but I still haven't heard even back about acceptance or rejection. I'm assuming not the former, since everyone already reporting seems to have gotten in. But given that their website says: "Q: Do you have a rolling admissions process?A: No. The Office of Graduate Admissions will notify all applicants of admission decisions in March for fall admission or November for spring admission. " ...I'm confused. I called the office yesterday, but they could not tell me anything.

keeperofkiwis Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I made an account just to post this, but it looks like the GW Offices will be closed today because the metro is currently shut down until tomorrow morning. We probably won't be getting any updates on admissions/funding today! Take the day off from waiting, and try to relax.
