Cookiz Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Thanks for the info! That sounds a bit late >.< ...
lackey Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 I mean, I thought it was normal. xD Still not as late as WWS.
CFGauß Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 It’s March 7 or March 14 (see my earlier Roswell-themed posting) but only for Master‘s programs. Admitted PhDs get a call but I don‘t know anything of the schedule there since it’s handled through GSAS.
Cookiz Posted February 25, 2018 Posted February 25, 2018 Oh I see, thanks for clarifying! Sorry for not specifying it earlier but I was in fact talking about PhD admissions results ^^' !
Prester John Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 I think we should expect hearing from CPL regarding the interviews later this week, according to te faq. Pls post when it happens... RealMowgli, HKSMPPguy and MPA__Applicant 2 1
deeperblue Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Has anyone seen any indication on when the admitted students day would be? While I certainly don't know whether I'll be admitted, I'm trying to avoid scheduling trips to other schools that would preclude it if I did get in.

Not sure about this year, but I believe they've had it the first or second week of April in the past. I really hope we get decisions by next Wednesday.
RealMowgli Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Looks like Friday, Apr 13, 2018, is Admit Students day this year - not that anyone on here is planning on it, as we collectively dive into a safe space of nonchalance regarding pending lifechanging admissions decisions... or whatever... https://admissions.hks.harvard.edu/www/documents/Admissions_Flow_Chart_2017.pdf
HKSMPPguy Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Last year Admit Day was April 7th 2017 and Admissions Day was March 8th. If this year Admit Day is a week later, can we assume that admissions day will be a week later as well? March 14th MPA__Applicant 1
lackey Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 I think it would depend on their number of applications and other quirks in the academic calendar. You may not necessarily want to read too much into it...but you may be right. Only way to know for sure is to wait til next week.
kevinmk4 Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 They normally release decisions before spring break and we start spring break on March 9, so they will probably release admission decisions on March 7. Anonymous_Walrus and lackey 2
Prester John Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 If they don’t release by 9th, I think it’s surekh gonna be on the 12th, going by the past decisions! It would also seem that Matt should post the next update on the reading and decision series today(28th feb)? Anonymous_Walrus and lackey 2
lackey Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Sweet, looking forward to it! Anonymous_Walrus 1
Prester John Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Matt has not disappointed us!? new update posted in blog. But no concrete info on the most important matter of our concern: the date of results!
lackey Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Well, I was initially very excited about the blog update. I'm glad they noted admitted students days. But not seeing the actual decision timeline made me feel like someone who bit into a vegan dish expecting meat. Matt will update us again a few days before the decisions come out, right?

I think there should be 5-6 posts more till the result day. But they never give out the date in advance lackey 1
brown queer Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Just jumped on this thread, and the discourse makes me feel much less anxious in the same boat. I'm guessing fellowship interview mails go out around the same time as the admits. All the best to everyone! xx
jello1237 Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) I might be wrong, but my understanding is that this is the first year that they are trying to release financial aid at the same time as admissions decisions. Have other people heard/seen that? Makes me wonder if they might need to allow a bit of extra processing time, especially for CPL fellowships that require interviews.

brown queer Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I am not sure but someone on the forum claimed admit mails went out to a few people last week from HKS. Pretty confusing given the timeline says March.
Prester John Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Last year the admit came first and then the financial aid decision. But this time, the deadline for fin aid had been advanced by 15 days and the timeline also says that both will be out before 15 March. But I have doubts about CPL that requires interview. Maybe decisions will come by 9th and fin aid by 15th jello1237 1

lackey Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 All I've seen are PhD admits. I looked at the timeline for HKS PhD admits last year and it was the same so hopefully that means MPP does come out next week. RealMowgli 1

lackey Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 That may be the case (I think there are some HKS PhD admits that may be handled by the pol sci department but are listed as HKS? Check the results page).
