Mine now says: "Development Projects and Planning" Which I find confusing haha. I really hope they send out the official things by tonight

@nomadic_joe I was wondering if you knew roughly how many students are admitted to 1. the MA program & 2. Each cluster in the MA Thanks!

Thats really good to hear! I don't know anyone thats been in that stream before so I'm glad its getting some good reviews haha

I applied for International Security/Intelligence; Conflict Resolution; International Development Hoping for the first but would be fine with the other two as well!

Mine changed too, thanks for the heads up. What cluster did you apply to?

I GOT THE EMAIL TOO!!! Recommended for Admission! SO SURREAL

All the anxiety.... I'm finding it incredibly difficult to focus on my last papers of undergrad with this looming in the not so distant future! haha.

Thanks for the info!

From the NPSIA website, go to prospective students, then "click to learn more about the MA program", and then application information, scroll down a little and its right there!!

The NPSIA website currently says: "The assessment of completed applications for the forthcoming academic year will begin after 15 March." So I'm Assuming we'll all be seeing recommended for assessment until at least friday.... http://www1.carleton.ca/npsia/prospective-students/ma-program/m-a-program-information-and-application-forms/

Quite possibly the best advice ever.

Anyone else anxiously awaiting decisions from NPSIA (Carleton) or uOttawa (MPIA)??? I'm on the verge of an anxiety attack every time I get an e-mail to my phone...

My top School isn't even assessing applications until March 15th so there is still time!

Western did the same thing to me (I ended up getting into a program higher on my preference list so I declined Western), but I think you can always accept and then decline if you get into UofT. Maybe E-mail western and ask what they would like you to do. The Poli Sci grad administrator is quite approachable.

Calgary also gave me a phenomenal offer (for the Master's of Strategic Studies program), but this is something I'm trying to reconcile at the moment too. I'm still waiting to hear back from NPSIA at Carleton - but at this point I'm trying to gauge Calgary's good (and improving) reputation / amazing funding package against NPSIA's stellar reputation and the fact that its in Ottawa is a nice touch (thats if I get in of course haha). Best of Luck with your decision making!
