adow93 Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 I've done a quick search on results for previous years and it seems that in 2015, the results were also reported on the second Wednesday of March (March 11). However, in 2014 it was March 13 (a Thursday), and the year before that was March 18 (Monday). I don't think it is conclusive yet, but it seems safe to say that it will be in the next 2-3 days.

zore Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Hopefully this means we'll hear something tomorrow! Based on the blog post cadence, looking like Thursday though... RealMowgli 1

Nonprofitguy Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 I'm deferred student and it says financial aid information will be released on Friday, March 16. They also have a new admit video which is better than last year's. Prester John and brown queer 2
brown queer Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 As far as I know, financial aid is released within 48 hours of the decision (that’s what NYU did atleast). So maybe 14th is decision day?

Do you have any idea if they're releasing admits and fin aid together?

pumpkinturbo Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 They've been planning to release both at the same time, but the blog post this year says: "Information about financial aid is not communicated in an admission letter. A separate email will be sent to each admitted applicant from a financial aid counselor. Details concerning the timing of the email will be included in admission letters." So it's possible that they will be released at almost, but not exactly, the same time. hoping for tomorrow!
Jp.123 Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Have been following this thread for a couple of days now and wanted to join the collective anxiety! I'm hoping decisions come out ASAP, I've never been this unproductive at work lol tropisk_winter and pumpkinturbo 2

brown queer Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Here’s what I think must have went down: > They had planned on releasing results on 14th March (Second Wednesday) as per ritual. > 16th March was the financial aid decisions. Generally comes out in 48 hours too, as per other college’s standard operating procedures. >Then comes the snow storm. Oops. Now they cannot have the name reading. >Harvard is shut for one day & meanwhile Matt is working from home (On what, we might think?). Maybe it’s on Fin Aid. Maybe it’s the next blogs. Maybe it is post admission work. Maybe he’s replying to inquiry emails ffs. >They decide to not keep the ritual and do justice to the process. So name reading will be done tomorrow now. >Hence, final results on Thursday.

Would they care about a one-day difference (releasing Friday)? Or am I misunderstanding the last two lines of your logic?

If they’ve slated 16th March for Financial aid, I highly doubt they’ll converge the two.. they’ll probably release admissions atleast a day before. Which is 15th. Or I could be wrong & they’d want to release both together. So we’re looking at 15th & 16th at the moment.
tropisk_winter Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 This could be wishful thinking, but what if the deferred students are on a different financial aid timeline? HKS could be releasing info for previously accepted students and 2018 accepted students in completely separate batches, meaning the Friday release date posted above could have no relationship to those of us waiting to hear back about admissions. Obviously I have no idea haha. I just want to believe there's still a chance we could hear sooner than Friday!

Funding (scholarship & fellowship) and financial aid have been handled separately by all the schools that have given me a decision. Therefore, could they announce funding and admissions decisions together and then financial aid information a few days later?

Fellowships and scholarships could even be incorporated into the admissions letter. Makes for a nice touch for a memorable admissions letter adow93 1
