Not heard from SMARCHS yet but I know someone got interviewed mid feb for urbanism specialisation.

what did you apply for?

i applied for computation fyi

I applied to architectural design

I received a phone call for admission to the SMArchS Urbanism program 2 weeks ago. No formal letter or financial support information yet.

Oh were you the one who posted the Feb 15 phone result in gradcafe?

You mean to MIT M.Arch? or MIT SMarch?

GSD M.Arch

ah okay well hopefully GSD gets back to you!

M.Arch I or M.Arch II?

GSD M.Arch 1 3.5year

cross finger

Harvard- Accepted with aid 3/2

MDes for Harvard

Columbia- Accepted, no aid 3/5

Yale- rejected 3/6

Pratt- accepted with aid 3/6

Damn Congrats on GSD! Much more rejects on Grad Cafe this year than last year

Sci-Arc- accepted 3/11. am waiting to hear about financial aid

Upenn- accepted 3/12 with aid. Now, just waiting on MIT's decision. @archi_gram, thanks!

Which school are you leaning toward as of now? Who gave you the best funding?

@Archlandia - as of now, pratt has offered the most FA but it is the school i am least interested in. I would love to go to sci arc ( i'm a double major in fine arts) but a more practical side of me is leaning towards harvard or MIT if i get in. Honestly i'm already on track at my current university to complete a master's by next year with tuition 100% waived and a TA stipend so I have to think about this a lot. I honestly wasn't expecting to get in to any of the schools when i applied so I will definitely have to look over their curriculums again when i have some time to see what i'm signing myself up for.

Great to hear! Congrats!

So inspiring!!! Hope you get some good news from the other schools as well wish you the best!

Update: In at UMich with $$$!

Update: In at GSD with $$. Shocked and grateful and shocked.

Beautiful! Don't know you but I'm proud of you! Great comeback! Congrats.

Damn, Congrats on GSD! Much more rejects listed on Grad Cafe this year than last year, and only 4 people got aids so far. You must have a really strong portfolio

Final Update: In at Pratt w/ $$, Waitlisted at UPenn and GSAPP. It's been really interesting to see where things landed and it just goes to show that all of these schools look for different things in their applicants. Now to choose between Cornell and the GSD....

Hey @ap23, I'm just reading through some of these posts, and also did Design Discovery this summer, and in at Cornell (probably going there unless the MIT or Princeton wait lists come through) - great job getting in at GSD too! I guess I'll be Zooming with you tomorrow, but feel free to DM me if you want to talk schools!

Hi if you decided to go to Cornell, I have a place with a perfect location, located on campus right next to AAP, less than 10 minutes walk to the architecture building. Too bad I signed my lease too early because the place is just perfect, the room is huge, and the rent is only $800 which is a steal if you compare with other listings on Facebook, but too bad I just got accepted by a better school. If you are interested, you can email me at [email protected]

Hi i would love to get connect with you through social media

The email says there is an open house in April, let's figure it out then.

I don't know about the "max funding', however, your financial package should be included in you offer of admission letter.

14k for MSAAD, 5k-20k/yr(not accurate) for March(1) varies on applicants.

I was given 24k for MS AAD not sure what the maximum is.

That's a lot! Huge congrats!

Thank you

@peijungei
Are you also waiting for GSD MArch II ?

Correct, we are overlapping like 90% to each other lol, good luck bruh!

You too :)

I was given 30k for MSAAD and got a mail that I received a director's award.

but rej from GSD M.Arch 2

Congratulations for Cornell! Huge!
@gksrnrdls

Saw one 30k on Grad Cafe, the highest among the rest is 14k

It totally depends on what you want in your education. I also applied to Pratt and Cornell, and I live in VA, so I know many people who graduated from UVA. The reality is that you could probably get a good job in NYC coming out of all those schools. UVA might be a little bit harder, but people definitely do it all the time. A lot of UVA grads I know end up in Richmond or DC. So, what it most likely will come down to is what you want in your education and how much you're willing to spend for it. Cornell is obviously an ivy league school with a lot of research going on. Pratt is an art school in Brooklyn. Two very different things. UVA is a public ivy and is similar to Cornell in terms of its remoteness. I don't know a ton about their academics. I would say, just weigh all the factors and write a pro/con list. Also, talk to current students and faculty. I would keep in mind that the cost of living in NYC is much higher than Ithaca, so Cornell and Pratt could come out to be much closer in price than it would seem. Keep in mind that this is just my two cents having visited all these schools and totally my personal opinion.

I assume you are applying march 1 which is 3-3.5 yrs program, then definitely Cornell. As our friend's argument above, which makes sense to me, the living cost is much lower in Ithaca, not even mention 3 yr. And as I know about the program of Cornell, they have a teaching spot located right in Manhattan FIDI, and normally there will be semester students spending in that spot.

Probably depends on your results from Yale and Columbia. Yale >>>>> Columbia and the rest. If you can get into Yale, you probably won't need to think about that much. It will be much easier to land a job or start your own studio if you graduate from Yale. Columbia though not as good as Yale in terms of reputation, still got the best of both world, great location and faculty resources. Cornell master program is the smallest. It is in the middle of the mountain, so it's nice to see nature, but will be painful to find a decent job or internship for summer and then move around. I don't know where UVA is, but all your other schools are all in huge cities or New Haven. If you care about post graduation opportunities and experiences, take that into consideration, because summer internships are really important. Cornell has a nice building, but their Rate my professors scores are tragedy for some reasons...

@c_meeeee where did you decide to go? if you are going to Conell, see you in August

I applied to MAUD at GSD and SMArchS Urbanism at MIT. I got a phone call from MIT but did not hear from GSD.

Can I ask you if it was a decision call for SMArchS Urbanism? I applied to SMarchS HTC and all the programs above at GSD, and I have not heard from any of them.

Yes, a professor called to tell me I was admitted, but I haven't received any official admission letter or financial support information yet

GSD March II is supposedly going out today.... good luck to us alll

MLA applicant here - do your sources have any idea when GSD MLA is going out? :D

I applied to MAUD and SMarchS but still nothing...

I applied. Haven’t hear anything from them. But my M.Arch friends had received their offers last week.

Update: rej from MDes

But got into GSD’s M.Arch I!

Congrats!

Update: Also got accepted to MDes with some financial assistance :)

Hi! I applied to CC. :) I hope we get good news soon...

Hi! I applied to CC. :) I hope we get good news soon...

Same here

Guess see you in Cornell open house then...

Let’s hope others turnout well

Same here :( not even waitlist...

I had prep for this because according to the GSD annual fact book, the March II are the most difficult program to apply. Be aware the total March I is roughly 3 times of March II enrollment, refer to here page 16 enrollment chart: https://www.gsd.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/GSD-Factbook.pdf

Many MArch II candidates in this thread have got a reject. Btw have you heard from MIT SMArchS ?

And what's more, is the MAUD program is the second hard program to apply, so @Koala96, we got a hard path on application strategy targeting GSD. Lol

I did not apply MIT SmarchS since I missed the ddl. Sad

@koala96 @peijunfei where did you guys decide to go? if you are going to Conell, see you in August

M.Arch 3.5years

Me too! Admitted to MAUD

Same here! 3.5 MArch!

Wow congrats!

Congratulations, y'all!!

Yes, for M. Arch I. I imagine it's not a good sign...

Same here M.Arch I, is this good or bad?!

feel same... waiting..

(March I)

yeah im still waiting too..

same... seems like waiting for rej...sad

Hi I'm waiting for any news from MIT too.. As long as the waitlist is already gone out, I assume I'm waiting for rej letter...

I am

I haven't heard for MSAAD, so probably a reject!

https://www.gsd.harvard.edu/architecture/master-in-architecture-i/

Advanced Placement, as in it'd be a 2 and a half year program instead.

hahahaha i see. T
hanks chuckluck！

I learned that quite a few students actually receive $$$$ from many good schools

I can tell you a little bit about sam fox if you havent visited yet. I graduated from the undergraduate art programme! the new building they have is amazing, facilities are really great. Professors are also very nurturing!

So kind! Thank you, faith.pang! What about location compared to VT and UMich? Meanwhile in UMich :)

yeah I agree with lmnoc1, the new building is fantastic though. St. Louis has a very interesting history. But then again, the city itself doesn't feel as lively as Ann Arbour. The downtown in STL is pretty dead. But STL has a french quarters and food is pretty good. cost of living is cheap

yes. forest park is HUGE, it was the location of the 1904 world's fair. lots of WUSTL students go there to hang out after school or on the weekends. if youre going to sam fox, you will be about a 3 minute walk from forest park. theres also an art museum, a boat house, a zoo in forest park, in winter it becomes an ice skating rink.

Thank you for information!

oh never mind, it was one of those "regret letters"...

patpat.

I don't think they are gonna announce the results very soon. I assume ard the 12th of Mar.

ah, ok thx

Some people have heard from Columbia, but I haven’t seen anyone that’s heard from Yale yet

Just got into Yale

huge congrats!! you have a lot of amazing choices

Hey @argarch, do you have any idea about the maximum funding for MUD at U Michigan?

They offered me a 37.5k top merit scholarship, distributed over the 3 terms. I don't know if that is the maximum.

Oh okay! Which university are you inclined towards?

Probably MIT because of funding.

Hey! Did you hear back from MIT?

Just received the letter. Got in with one-year of fellowship in SMarchS Urbanism.

I did not receive any funding for the first year in SMArchS. MCP offered a full tuition scholarship. @MJ31 did you receive that fellowship for the first year?

Yes, fellowship for the first-year that includes 50% tuition fee waiver.

Congrats for that then!

@argarch Got in as well! but no funding. I called and tried to appeal but they said no cause this year funding was reduced (so i've heard) :( @MJ31 congrats! does the fee waiver entail your total tuition over two years would still be ~75,000 USD?

Congratulations for the admit! Funding seems to be limited in the arch department. I will probably go to the MCP and focus it on urban design. Except GSD improves my financial offer.

Thanks!

@lco1996 The fellowship will be rolling as long as I maintain a certain GPA. So can't predict my tuition for the second year.

Congratulations to both @argarch and @lco1996.

@MJ31 which program are you incline towards?

I'm gonna go with SMArchS Urbanism program!! Which one have you finalized?

I haven't made a decision yet

This was interesting! Thanks for sharing.

GSAPP typically send out decisions by March 10-15th.

Congratz! That's some serious money you've been given!! When did you hear back from Sci-arc if you don't mind me asking (assuming M.Arch I)? Still waiting for their results

Nice! Would be keen to see your portfolio!!

Are you not curious as to why you didn’t get into GSD while you got into others with full scholarships?

@chuckluck -- Thank you so much :) I heard from them Feb 28, they called me but with the time difference in Hong Kong (where I am at the moment) I missed their call and then finally heard back from them this morning

@hbassal I am very curious as to why I didnt get in. I actually attended GSD discovery in 2018. maybe im just not good enough! and i will try to upload my portfolio!

also, if anyone's interested sci-arc asked for a phone interview. I think it was for the scholarship.

Congrats Faiths.pang! Some great news! Phone interviews are for international students to verify English. It’s a better indicator for success than scores alone. Anyway, I’m here in Houston now visiting UH. Houston’s a great town. Lot of growth. Rice and the Rice Village Area are so beautiful!! You’ll love it!

actually im just in Hong Kong visiting family, I'm an american citizen haha and im from california :)

also update: in at Penn Design, no mention of funding though

https://issuu.com/faiths.pang/docs/pang_faith_portfolio

Huge congrats!! And I stand corrected! :)

wow absolutely love your portfolio, and huge congrats on all of your acceptances!!

lol GSD with $$ do you still need the rest, but YSoA worth the wait. I think you have the highest GRE verbal here

have you found out yet? from gsapp or ysoA

I should clarify that I'm in for MLA at Penn, haven't heard back re: M. Arch.

May I ask how you applied for Harvard Graduate School Fellowship? What was the procedure of searching for fellowships/the materials needed/the decision etc?

I looked at the financial aid section of the schools I was applying to, and googled a series of word combinations e.g. : "fellowships for architecture studies", "Grants for architecture studies", "Fellowships for international graduate students applying to the US" etc. and I applied to all I was eligible for. Some I had to write an essay for, but most were just transcripts, and statement of intent. I've been awarded three so far, and waiting to hear back from the others. If you're applying for fall 2020, I don't think you'll find any for which the deadline hasn't passed, most were due November-January. This is where I found the Harvard one: https://scholarships.harvard.edu/ Most of the awards listed on this site are part of the GSD financial aid application, but some are separate, you just have to read the application instructions.

Thanks so much for the info! I actually applied this year but I might gap. Was still in school in December so I did not have much time, but I really regret not having applied for more funding.

Holy molly, I think you have the highest $$$$ from GSD on both this forum and on Grad Cafe! Huge Congratulations! You are probably one of those 5 students this year

May I ask why Gsapp is your first preference? It's curriculum is a bit ~ok~ and they don't have thesis . Maybe location ? Btw they sent out update a
couple of hours ago and I got in!

Or if I have to change the question, which Gsapp course that U find very interesting?

@ wuhuu Hey! Congrats! I got in as well, pretty stoked. GSAPP is my top choice mainly because I find the work coming out of the studios/ workshops to be the most experimental and humanist/ inline with my interests. It's a positive for me that there's no thesis, I don't really see the benefit in writing one. I like that the curriculum is more practical, and I think that it pays off; I talked over a dozen firms and it was overwhelmingly consistent that MIT grads (praised the most) and Columbia grads adapt better to practice and get promoted more quickly then other top-tier, east-coast programs (though no feedback for Princeton grads, I'm not sure where they end up, maybe primarily academia? there's also fewer of them, so IDK) But it's such a personal decision that if that's your reaction to the program, then go somewhere that excites you so you can produce the best portfolio possible and enjoy your time in school.

hey @JessaMynn, congrats on your offers! Is GSAPP your final choice?

Hey! Most likely GSAPP is my final choice. I'm a little worried with how hard it NY is COVID-19, there's no way it will be over by September. I think I'm just going to take a chance and put my deposit down.

Interesting choice considering you got a Harvard fellowship! Did you get any scholarships from GSAPP?

Because it’s $200 and it sucks

it’s also incredibly easy and $200 is a completely insignificant amount of money in this context

That seems like a very narrow-minded and useless comment in this context

In most cases $$ is referring to merit based scholarships which are awarded by the admissions committee as they review your application. It’s “need blind”, meaning they’re awarding the $ purely based on merit with no clue whether or not you need it. When you wrap your Applications it’s a good idea to immediately fill out your FAFSA and list up to 10 schools you’ve applied to. All of them will receive it and be able to determine need. Then, they can decide to give you need-based scholarship or not and what loans to offer. Hope that helps!

Every school I applied to required I fill out a financial aid application with the the school's application. Some of them had a separate deadline for the financial aid application. I'm not American, so I don't qualify for FAFSA, but from what I remember most, if not all, schools I applied to required FAFSA be filled out as part of the application for American citizens if they wanted to be considered for financial aid. The $$ will typically be a combination of both need and merit based scholarships, but some people will only receive need based aid, some only merit scholarships. Unless the person posting specifies, you won't know the breakdown.

Thank you both for the answers. If one is not offered merit-based, is it appropriate to inquire if there are funds available? Or is this frowned upon? I'm surprised to see how common it is to receive scholarship funds based off those posting on this forum

There will be a financial aid offer in your offer of admission. It's possible to negotiate it, and many people do successfully, especially if you've been offered more money elsewhere.

Yes @amillioner, @jessaMynn is correct. I'm in the same boat. One of my top school choices offered me $0in scholarship, so I am very respectfully appealing. I'm reaching out to the department and seeing if they can find some cash for me. Similarly, another of my top choices offered me just shy of a full ride. The School costs $58K per year (tuition + fees) and they offered me $50K scholarship, which is amazing. I'm going to see if they can get that amount up to 58k to cover all Tuition and I may even ask if I can apply for fellowship/stipend to cover at least some of the cost of living. Want to earn this M.Arch with as little debt as possible. But As @jessaMynn said, I won't really have much bargaining power unless another of my schools offers a full ride. (Still awaiting decisions from 4 schools, of which 2 are large, private, nonprofits who will likely have the funds. The other two being, for-profit art schools who may not).

A wise man once said: "No news, is good news." If you haven't heard back yet, I think that could be good.

I got in at A&M, just confused atm if I should accept or not.

wondering this as well

getting nervous..

The results are just not out yet so we'll stay patient, fingers crossed

this is agony! I want to make some decisions

“Hey Yale, you still alive!?”

Yale results are out!

Just received an offer. Still waiting for the FA.

same! just got into yale :)

Same qeustion. here

just heard back from Columbia, which is the last school to get back to me. 

Did Columbia offer you anything @peijunfei?

Nope, they mentioned in the email the scholarship stuff will be worked out by fin aid office blabla, I don't believe that I will just email some prof. and lecturer I knew tonight to find out what's the deal.

are you an international student?

btw, so which school are you thinking to go?

International student here. MSAAD. Nothing about FA on the admission letter. I doubt I could get any :( But I have heard from last year attendee that he got his FA letter in near March 15 so I hope next week we could get more information about it .

uhh, I am hard to define that I have both abroad and a domestic degree in architecture and landscape? and also working in the US? I suppose in different schools, I will be treated differently and dropped into a corespondent compilation of applicants. I only can go to the school offer me enough fin aid since I am financially independent without any sponsor, while as I am bot a citizen of the US I cannot apply federal assistant either. All on myself will see where to go. Finger crossed.

I got my acceptance to the MS AAD with a scholarship in the acceptance letter, its merit based (about 18k)

only 9 people on Grad Cafe got in this year and only 1 of them got 18000

congrat Unicornsarereal! Are you coming to the Open House?

archi_gram, where do you see "9 people" on "Grad Cafe"? I only saw 1 or 2 posts for MSAAD at Columbia this year

sorry i was talking about the whole GSAPP

I got an email from them this afternoon.

Congrat! Do you know if they release all the offers at one time ? I feel like I might be rejected cuz I didn’t receive any email

thank you. I heard they sent it out by wave in terms of program and funding. I hope you get in, good luck!

i'm still waiting as well :(

yes！receiced the offer yesterday

I still haven't heard back from Columbia, have you guys?

Urrrr I didn't receive any mail from them...:(

Nothing at all? based on history it seems they send out acceptances and rejections in wave. what smarchs program did you apply for?

architectural design ;( what happened..

i
havent seen much news

i havent seen much news of anyone getting any result besides the one guy receiving admit for urbanism

i got a waitlist for M.Arch I a week ago

I received my letter yesterday. No funding though..

congratulations! how do you know no funding?

I also got SMArchS HTC Waitlist... Anyone in the same boat? Are there anymore thinking of turning their off down?

Doubt it. SMArchS has a high yield rate and it looks like theres a lot of waitlisted people.... I asked a professor i know in the program and he said its unlikely any waitlisted people would be offered. probably gonna ditch the waitlist and accept somewhere else before deadlines comeup...

@monkeyfish Do you think this statement only applies to SMarchS or all the programs at MIT?, I am also on the wait-list.

as far as i know smarchs for all 6 streams cause thats what i asked the professor about. what program are you waitlisted in

Oh okay, waitlist for M.Arch I ...

GSD is wired this year after asking around about the rough enrollment stat...Have not heard of other programs do this. The new chair and host cat definitely had changed GSD already.

What do you mean? The cancellation is in relation to CONVID19.

Did they send an email? I don't have one.

Email was sent a few hours ago

Yale's open house is also cancelled!

I called GSAPP and Cornell both said very likely they are going to announce the cancellation very soon

rice has also cancelled

im pretty certain most institutions will cancel open house this year

Upenn Weitzman just cancelled their open house

Does anyone know if these schools will be extending their decision deadlines?

$500000 per year is the most I have EVER heard. What are you waiting for?

LOL sorry 50K not 500K. so total is gonna be 100K. a few years from the degree it wouldnt be worth it considering the return of investment and the fact many people develop their career without the degree (talking about SMarchS and MUD tho not M.Arch)

Got into GSD M.Arch 1 for 3.5 year program. No funding. It would take me 30k to earn the degree. Don’t know if I should go or not.

Not 30k. It is 300k. Sadly

@Ico1996 In undergrad I had a professor tell me "If you're paying to do a non-professional graduate degree, you're doing it wrong." If you already have a professional degree, you're probably not going to get a significant monetary ROI, so it's up to you to decide if the experience is worth the debt.

I agree with this, but the crux of it is professional, so for people doing the M.Arch which is sort of a barrier to career entry, it would certainly factor differently. Still a dilemma though to go into so much debt for a degree. Just means we all have to become amazing architects/other professionals later :)

Also the HCI programs are only 1 year or 2 years. Which cost me around 80k-140k to finish the degree.

hmm well, i think it depends on what you really want to do. Are you set on becoming a practising architect? Or would you be open to working in other areas of the design? At the end of the day, it really depends on how certain you are about architecture

Congratulations! When did you hear back from GSAPP M.Arch I? Didn't seem like anyone else got it. And to chip in , it'll be worth it if you make it worth it

@vialee It's unusual that none of the programs offered you any funding. You could call and try and negotiate some need based financial aid, but to raise it significantly from $0 is unlikely (but still worth a shot!). Is your BA in architecture? If so what I would do would be work for a year or two, save up some money and strengthen your application, then reapply. This will have the added bonus of given you work experience so that when you graduate with an M.Arch you won't be limited to entry-level positions. Also Berkeley and UCLA are public universities, so you can either differ for a year, move to California and apply for residency, or attend right away and apply for residency after your first year (for which you will have to pay full tuition). Once you have California residency tuition is about half. I can't speak to architecture vs HCI, I think that will just come down to which program suits you better. @chuckluck I haven't heard back from GSAPP either; I was told the M. Arch I wouldn't be out until next week. Maybe early notification? Either way, nothing can be done until we hear from them.

first off congrats on all your acceptances! those are the best schools you could possibly choose from!

I would pick harvard gsd: famous staff, larger and better fabrication facilities than MIT, a lot of brand prestige even to those outside of the industry, in boston so getting a job in NY by pure proximity would be easier. of course the same thing could be said about MIT, but based from my exchange there, GSD is a way bigger school than MIT's school of architecture by pure population so you would be able to expand your network more

I would pick Princeton first, GSD last from those choices, which goes to show a lot of it comes down to personal preference. My biggest factor in picking schools was how interesting i found the courses and studios/ the student work being produced. MIT and Princeton are also much smaller class sizes than the GSD, so it depends on if that's a pro or con for you. I spent the summer at the GSD and I found the MLA program (more innovative research, better in-house faculty) a lot more intriguing than the M. Arch program, but I applied to both so I would have the option to do concurrent degrees. Princeton is the closest to NY, but I don't think choosing one over the other will be more conducive to working in NY. They're all top tier programs so the difference is negligible. Also FYI the roof of Gund hall (GSD) leaks BADLY when in rains, so depending on where your desk is you have to be prepared for wet feet and fending off rain damage. I do like the idea of the trays though, it has high ceilings and lots of natural light. Maybe try contacting the schools and asking if they can put you in contact with current students.

I'm in the exact same boat, currently in Europe and can't visit any open houses. After talking to a faculty member at Princeton, it seems like the programme is being pushed into a digital fabrication/design direction, they want to place a heavier emphasis on practice. I'm not that convinced by the faculty at Princeton, to be honest... I think the classes and the faculty in the Landscape department at the GSD look incredible, but I'm very nervous about closing the door on an MArch, as I only applied into the MLA at the GSD (MArch at Princeton and MIT). I recommend reaching out to staff, it has been very helpful to me so far.

Contact faculty at all three schools and ask to be put in touch with current students!

Thanks everyone! Will try to get in contact with current students - great idea.

Hi ctrl_z! I went to MIT architecture for undergrad and took several M. Arch level classes with the grad students. Happy to answer any questions about the school/culture

I ts Princeton. Most people wont even dare to apply because they know they wont get in. Probably depends on what other schools you are in to see if it worth the wait

I’m on the Princeton waitlist too. Let me know if you find out any more info re: chances. Best of luck to the both
of us.

Hi, best of luck to both of us! The admission office hasn't responded; I imagine the delay might have something to do with the outbreak of the virus. BTW, do we need to let them know that we want to stay on/ accept the waitlist? 

I don't think so, only if you want off.

have you heard back from Princeton yet or are you still interested? I still haven't but I've had a couple of email exchanges with Paul and he said this year the responses were coming back very slowly.

Hi! I am a graduate student so it would be great if you could get me in touch with some students from the M.arch course. Thank you! My email ID is [email protected]
