For NPSIA it says "Review in progress by department" (see this as a negative sign as others have stated that their's has changed to "Recommended for assessment"), and for Poli Sci its says it still needs preliminary review (makes no sense since I submitted well before the Jan 31st deadline). This wait is killing me... reject me already.

I've applied to the following programs: Carleton- NPSIA Carleton- MA Poli Sci McMaster- MA IR York- MA Poli Sci McMaster- MA Work and Society (Accepted with funding) I have experience interning alongside diplomats, NGO management, as well as being involved in several organizations/campaigns leading to experiences running workshops/seminars/lectures on IR related topics at universities and conferences in the States and Canada. However, my grades are awful (B for 3rd year due to a 50% in a course and an B+/A- for the last term). What do you think are my chances?? I have been discouraged by many from applying, but figured I would give it a go anyway. Doubtful I will hear back from any of the IR/Poli Sci programs due to the grades.. ugh (Work and Society was a last minute back-up). Good luck to everyone!!
