Anthony2016 Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 No one received rejections yet from NYU I suppose.

I'm also confused about the difference between the priority deadline and final deadline for M.A. Programs. Like, how big of a difference does it make in terms of my chance of getting in? Does anyone know?? It bounces from school to school and depends on the competitiveness. But, from my experience, it is always the sooner the better. Priority deadline means you get first shot at being admitted and offered funding/scholarship/fellowship/etc. packages. Final deadline is just the last date you can apply and be considered for admission. After priority deadline, it seems to be mainly filling slots for the program and offering funding... If funding is still available.
Hamb Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 GWU decisions are out, at least on the portal. diter91 and WeberianStew 1 1
deutsch1997bw Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) If the results from previous years are to be trusted, then IU-Bloomington will release some decisions today, probably mid to later afternoon. Edited February 23, 2018 by deutsch1997bw
rossonera_cml Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) Just got an email from American University which stated that offers were made last week but I'm still under consideration if people turn it down. Also I'll be given priority for merit awards if I concurrently put my application forward for considering into a Master's program. Edited February 23, 2018 by rossonera_cml

SIS or SPA?

S-Kyo Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 So, apparently, we will not hear anything from Northeastern in this week.

Given the delay, and some comments above, it looks that way. (I hope not, but I am not holding my breath...back to my MA paper) I just got a phone call from Georgetown! My POI said official email acceptances are coming early next week, so you should hear soon.
googlescholar Posted February 23, 2018 Posted February 23, 2018 Long time lurker turned registered user here! Hi you all! Seems like today has been quiet so I thought I'd ask a couple of questions: Is there anyone who can claim the Harvard Polsci admits and the Georgetown one? Does anyone by any chance know how many people actually went to GWU's event? I think someone mentioned 40 in total were invited but I doubt everybody went.

Re: Harvard, it seems again odd that some admits are reported, yet they're staggered (sort of) and have different notification methods, and no one has claimed them. Very similar to the suspected Columbia trolling that occurred before decisions finally went out yesterday...

Regarding the GWU event, I'd probably put it closer to 25 or so. All 3 tables were filled up and had what, 8-9 seats each? Edited February 23, 2018 by Hamb
