Considering they wanted documents physically mailed I think it's safe to assume it isn't the most efficient bureaucracy...LOL
-
Got my official offer from NPSIA! 14K, no TA gig though. Certainly nothing to sneeze at.
-
Definitely unjustified on the freak out. I also haven't gotten my offer yet - but the email said 5-8 business days and that gives until Friday. The wait deff sucks but if you got that email you are NOT a borderline candidate.
-
If you let that school know you're waiting on offers they might extend you. Worked for one of my friends last year. If that school sent out their offers on Feb they'll understand.
-
I would go with BSIA if only for the funding. It's a very well regarded program and the people I know there say it more than lives up to the hype. But you also have to look into faculty, research interests, ectexact
-
Gonna reiterate my offer to help with any econ y'all need! Just PM me and I'll send you my Facebook info. I tutored a couple econ courses in my undergrad and all my students killed it
-
Yeah, again, if you got the email you're definitely first round. Waiting the weekend sucks but we've absolutely nothing to worry about. It's not like they're going to rescind the offer.
-
Same. An earlier post said we'd hear by the end of the week though. And we got the emails at like 9pm so I'm not too worried.
-
My specialisation was moved to economic policy in Carleton Central! And my status reverted to "review in progress by department"
-
Remember when they said this about this week? And last week? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
-
I am still waiting too but I wouldn't be worried. I mean, we got in first round so it's not like we were borderline applicants.
-
I still haven't gotten the funding offer but I'm not worried. The email said 5-8 business days. I mean, they probably sent the highest funding first so I'm not expecting 30K but if you got the email from Tabatha you're accepted.
-
Oh, ok, so since I haven't gotten the "official" email, just the one last night from Tabbatha, that isn't coming up? My status is still on recommended for assessment.
-
For the record I emailed Tabatha about our field concentrations so I'll let y'all know what she says. My top choice was international economic policy.
-
I mean this seriously - I did a joint econ degree for my undergrad so if any of you anticipate needing any help with macro/micro over the summer PM me and I'll toss you my facebook contact info. I tutored econ on the side while in school so I have no problem helping y'all out if needed
-
I got the email too! I'll see you folks in Ottawa We should all meet for a few beers when we get there!
