jgolig Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'm in as well! My admit letter didn't mention anything about financial aid or funding, however. I haven't received any email notification yet. I just checked apply yourself portal website. 6speed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ursusinopinatus Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'm in! I got $20k in funding, so I'll have to think hard about where to attend. I'm not too eager to get into debt for this kind of program and I got a full ride at NYU and at American. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapiau Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Big congrats to everyone who was admitted to such a selective program! 6speed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the second paragraph of the letter stated that I had received a financial award. More details came in a second letter about financial aid at the end of the letter about admission. 6speed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc_it Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'm in with financial aid - $14k! I also got a Fulbright scholarship (I'm an international student), so I'm definitely going to attend. SFS is my dream school and I couldn't be happier! 6speed!, mapiau and Solio 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irapplicant1776 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'm in with 18k! I can't believe it. It seemed so impossible at the start of the process. Really though, that seems like a drop in the bucket compared to the cost of attendance. I'm gonna wait to see what happens with the Pickering, otherwise it looks like I'm going to American (unless GWU throws a wrench in things). 6speed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ennkay Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 I'm in as well. And received an email about being on the waitlist for a scholarship. This is pretty surreal. MSFS has always been my top choice, but I wasn't confident about getting in at all. But again, the cost of attendance is pretty scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzclusa Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Waitlisted :/ almost no work experience so not surprised but still sad. I'll be starting my JD at georgetown so im bout to work my ass off to get off the waitlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoscoRiley Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 I'm in as well! Anyone also apply to the SSP? Thoughts on which is better: ssp vs Msfs global pol and security ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acceptance + funding for MSFS is still an amazing achievement. AU is a great program too, so best wishes with whatever you decide! irapplicant1776 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was accepted too but my admission letter did not say anything about funding--does that mean i did not get any or will I potentially receive an update on that later?

I believe it means you did not initially get awarded any funding, because those who did received admissions letters that clearly stated as much. However, some people were placed on a funding wait list and were informed of this in an e-mail they received subsequent to their admissions notification. Edited March 21, 2016 by 6speed!

Solio Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I didn't get funding either. I got a scholarship from Fletcher and I'm going to try to see if Georgetown will match it. Either way I'm pretty set on Georgetown. I've got some savings and a decent shot at some other scholarships, just wrapping my head around all that debt! It looked a lot more manageable in July! 6speed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgolig Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I too received notice that I was placed on the funding waitlist. So that makes 4 of us on this thread alone by my count... hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but as I've mentioned elsewhere on this forum I don't think Grad Cafe posters are a representative sample of your average applicant or admitted applicant pool, by any means.

SenNoodles Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Has anyone not heard yet? I didn't apply to SFS, but my coworker still hasn't heard back and is starting to get worried... Edited March 29, 2016 by SenNoodles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
