I mentioned before that I was accepted to STEP - I would really like to attend, but so far financial aid is a bit unclear. They have a "STEP fellowship" which I initially thought meant each student might get up to $25,000... though it looks more like that amount is divided among the cohort and maybe amounts to a few thousand dollars. It also looks like STEP folks are eligible for a $25,000 forgivable loan... but uh... that still leaves about $50,000 to be covered in other loans. I don't know how manageable that would be on a teacher's salary :-\ I was admitted last Friday, but nobody has mentioned any financial aid package as of yet Good luck! I really hope that the financial process works for all of us!
pj060690 Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 I called the admissions offic but was not able to reach any representative :/
525,600min Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 There's no way they'll release decisions over the weekend, right? I should stop obsessing over my email?
holyghost Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 Hey guys, just adding to info regarding decisions + timelines. I applied to GSE with GRE scores 161 verbal, 160 quant, 5.5 AWA. On Feb 3rd my potential advisor told me I was on the shortlist, and received official news that I got in Feb 14. Now I'll see if I can actually afford it....

holyghost Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) Yes - to 525,600min's question Edited February 27, 2017 by peezybee clarity
pj060690 Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 Going by previous year trends, Stanford apparently tends to release results on either the last Friday of Feb or the following Tuesday or rarely the following Thursday. Typically before Harvard.
pj060690 Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 Any kind hearted person with any info here?! Please do share and help those of us on tenterhooks!

BTC Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 Hope they will release by the end of today. No matter what the decision is, at least the anxious waiting time is over. Good luck to everybody! mjsmith 1
pj060690 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 I emailed them yesterday and got no reply either (
MarenT Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Were we expected to find out today? I thought it was Friday at the earliest.
pj060690 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Some results have come this early as well before. MarenT 1
pj060690 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) But looks like it's not going to come today. Edited March 1, 2017 by pj060690 Error
pj060690 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) Given that we are in March, I hope that the wait is over soon! Edited March 1, 2017 by pj060690
525,600min Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 this is the part of the website that worries me: "The Academic Services office will send decision letters electronically for all applicants starting mid-February for doctoral programs, early March for STEP applicants, and mid-March for non-STEP masters programs."

pj060690 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 The admissions office responded to my email saying early March is when we will hear back. I hope that means by this weekend!
