Mr.Caffeine

Hey everyone, just found this thread and decided to jump into the fray. Congrats to everyone who's gotten an offer so far! Glad to see I'm not the only one who was slowly eaten alive by this waiting process. I've been accepted to both Carleton's MPPA (28,000 funding) and NPSIA (still waiting on the official offer, but specialization just changed to Int'l Org's and Global Public Policy). I thought the application process was tough, but deciding between the two will definitely keep me up at night. In response to Nirenight, I can't speak with any real authority about TA positions, but I believe you could still apply to be an "out-of-priority TA" through Carleton Central and hope, though positions can be pretty limited. The co-op, however, is paid. From their brochure - "What is more, students in the MPPA program can take up to two paid, co-operative education work terms." Also, don't know how up-to-date this is, but an idea of salaries for different Carleton co-op programs: https://mycareer.carleton.ca/home/hirestudent/HireACo-op/HiredAStudent/Salary.htm Finally, general info on SPPA co-op: https://sppastudents.wordpress.com/co-op-info/
