Shameless Gloating

Dear Oscar,

It is my privilege to announce that the Master’s Admissions Committee of the School of Public and Environmental Affairs (SPEA) has reviewed your application file and offered you admission to our MPA graduate program.  Congratulations on this achievement!  Please look for our admission packet in the mail.

Merit-based financial aid decisions will be rendered through a separate review process.  Most award recipients will be notified, via email, in mid-March.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at xxxxxxx or xxxxxx.

Again, our sincere congratulations,

Jennifer L. Medlin

Assistant Director, Admissions & Financial Aid
MPA/MSES Program Office
School of Public & Environmental Affairs (SPEA) Indiana University

So that’s that.  Looks like I’ll be somewhere in the fall, and SPEA’s a pretty good somewhere.

    Oscar!

    That is fantastic! It is always nice to get the first acceptance, to have a LITTLE direction. Hopefully you will get a choice of some great schools and then it will be up to where you want to go. Way to go!

    Love, Jonathan, Karlynn, Wava and baby boy Fleck (we just found out it is a boy! Due end of June :)

    Congratulations! I still remember coming across that email myself and how happy (and relieved) I was to get into the one ofthe best schools in the country. I had to pinch myself. As you are considering your options in the months ahead, for some student insight into SPEA and Bloomington you should check out our blog at http://iuspea.wordpress.com/. Enjoy the celebration!

    Best,
    Andrew
