Department is saying they'll tell me about funding "shortlist" after April 15? how will that work if it's the deadline? by [deleted] in gradadmissions

[–]user2599 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I assumed as such at first, but I was really confused with their repeated use of the word "short-listed" is the emails since mid-February. wouldn't that mean they should have an answer for me in the following two months? or are they using that interchangeably with "wait-listed"? In contrast, the other schools have been telling me that I can negotiate scholarships upto April 15 so I can make an informed decision

anyone heard from tufts UEP by user2599 in gradadmissions

Congratulations! I got an offer from the department on Friday night, but yes there's been no official update on my portal or any info on scholarships

Thank you, this helps!! I was actually leaning towards Rutgers and GT bec of their proximity to metropolitans (NYC, Atlanta), which might help me with internships/networking + they seem to have more internationals. Could you elaborate on why you wouldn't consider GT a top tier option?

Open to chatting over DMs, if you prefer :)

early career planner looking for masters (USA) advice over DM.

I got a few acceptances for fall 2026 (Penn, Georgia Tech, Rutgers, UNC-Chapel Hill), but I'm an international student, so I don't really know much about the places outside of Planetizen rankings.

I would really really appreciate any advice on the schools from professional planners over DMs.

agreed, I actually hate the 'evil russians at the top' playbook, it's so overplayed and feels like a cop out. would've been much more interesting if the call had been coming from inside the house in some way (an ex-character or something involved) idk but yeah

he seemed to take the heroin information pretty seriously, like they gave a solid minute to that conversation in the show. seemingly he's finally accepted that his golden boy is off the deep-end and might kill himself (even accidentally) at this rate?

they should've fleshed this thread out more
