International Affairs Graduate School Admission Results

Straight from undergrad at a Top 35+ US institution. Strong POLS and IR background with a triple major in Hx/POLS/Int Stud. Did not submit GRE. Strong LORs and three relevant internships. No word on scholarship. Not my top choice so far. Also accepted by JHU SAIS and UChicago CIR.

Recieved ~24k in merit-based aid split over 2 years.

Got off the waitlist! The department won't fund me because I mentioned that I have an external fellowship.

Received an email from the Dean informing me that my application was rejected. While I'm disappointed, I'm unsure how much of the decision was based on my qualifications versus the funding cuts at Pitt this season. To future applicants, I wish you all the best and hope you have more success. Law GPA 3.20 - 1a/1w/6r/3p

Doctorate: Kinda shocked when I had a professor who was willinging to sponsor my thesis?
