Foj Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Thought it was strange that there isn't a thread for Goldman this year, so I'm just starting one! Anyone else waiting on Goldman? Any guesses when the results will be out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devx Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Count me it, their site says 'early march', so I think maybe around 8th-9th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palolem Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 What is the aid situation like at GSPP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfmpp Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Current Goldman student. On Friday, I talked with the person who will press "send" on the decision e-mails. They're working on it. Think they meant to send them out the other day but something went wrong with the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devx Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Hey @mfmpp , thanks for the update. Can you please get an update from the person concerned again? Having been through the process, I'm sure you understand our anxiety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookwhathappened Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Can't do this waiting business anymore!! I'm so restless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palolem Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Does that mean we can expect the email now? March 6th, Monday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fallmpp2017 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I'm done with all this waiting too. I just want to know. I hope it comes out early this week. Also, RE: funding-- I heard they are selective with their merit scholarships but if you do get them, they are quite generous. Otherwise, since it is a state school, it is not nearly as expensive as its private counterparts (e.g. HKS). Especially with in-state tuition in your second year.

Historically, Goldman seems to be the one releasing decisions earlier than other schools like HKS, WWS or SIPA. Maybe today is the today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfmpp Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 My decision came out March 7th last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fallmpp2017 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I'm losing hope for today. I am hoping for tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginger_root Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 admitted but not offered fellowship. I will turn down the offer this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fallmpp2017 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I got accepted with no fellowship too. Goldman is definitely one of my top choices, so I am seriously considering it, especially with the opportunity to work for partial fee remission.

coffeebean13 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Accepted! And, full tuition fellowship + stipend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obecalp Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Congrats @coffeebean13! Same, but without the fellowship + stipend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeewalk Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Accepted! I am totally shocked. No funding though... I will probably have to go with a full ride to USC Price, debt free is just so appealing. I will probably try to negotiate with Berkeley. Even with in state tuition thats about $50,000 in debt on tuition alone, not to mention living in the bay. What are other people thinking? Anyone else struggling with tough decisions haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
