  1. OMG I'm so happy!!! Not because NPSIA was my no.1 choice but it means that my chances of getting into GSPIA are higher.
  2. Just got an email from Tabatha!! Got accepted to NPSIA and similarly, am waiting for funding in 5-8 days!!!!!!
  3. The London School of Economics??? You are pretty much confirmed for a NPSIA offer then lmao. My guess is NPSIA offers will go out next week or so, perhaps the week after that.
  4. Does anyone know how long an application usually stays at "Review in progress by Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs"? I imagine that is the fastest step as they are just verifying the offer/rejection made by the committee.
  5. I share the same opinion as 'justapersonwhochangednames' and that it is probably a technical mistake and nothing more.. Contact them about it but don't sweat it! Everything will be fine.
  6. Omg I was just thinking this! I really hope we connect at whatever school any of us choose. This forum and the common nerves we all have makes for a kind of bonding lol. Wishing everyone good luck!!!
  7. The thread is dry today... Still a couple hours till the end of the working day. Hoping to hear back from them soon.
  8. That was quick and probably means you got accepted, although I don't want to get your hopes up! I would be excited.
  9. Public transit is pretty good at both schools. All major bus routes run through uOttawa as it is downtown and they'll have the LRT system there next Spring. Carleton already has the 'O-train' which connects the campus to a number of other stations and has a number of buses that will take you wherever you need to go. I can't say I've ever had problems with public transit at Carleton and have solely used it to get to school as I live at home. uOttawa is without a doubt accessible with public transit and will only get even more convenient with the trains coming.
  10. Carleton has been fortunate to have access to the LRT (light rail) system but that is changing next year for UOttawa! The city is building/extending its LRT system to downtown Ottawa and it will stop at the uOttawa campus. It opens next Spring.
  11. I'm a Carleton student and have been to uOttawa more times than I can count (a bunch of friends go there) and I have to say there are pros and cons to each. uOttawa is in the heart of the city, blocks from Parliament Hill, Byward Market, Rideau Mall etc. Carleton is more scenic, on the river, and quite beautiful in the Spring/Summer. NPSIA and GSPIA are both housed in the nicest buildings on each campus. For NPSIA, that would be top floor at the River Building (its been changed to 'Richcraft Hall' recently but that name sucks) and GSPIA is at the FSS building, and both are great. Carleton has a really amazing tunnel system which means you don't have to walk from building to building in the cold but uOttawa is a more congested campus since it is downtown and distances between buildings are reasonable. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference.
  12. I thought the same! Why would they ask for those documents otherwise? Anyways, I'll just wait anxiously for tomorrow.
  13. I mentioned this yesterday but was wondering if anyone else sees this on their GSPIA application once they click on the page where it shows all their documents?
