Hey have you heard from Munk yet?? Is your status still Decision Made?

Hey! I didn't get in, but I only got that after an informal enquiry to the Director of the program. Have you heard anything?

Check and see if they need official transcripts in the documents section. That might give a hint. 

yeah about that... they actually have three copies of my official transcript. My uni was having issues mailing them, so I ended up asking them to keep sending until Munk receive at least one. So no hint there I'm afraid  

Did you not have to submit an official transcript?

Mine still says under review too. But this is a good sign for us all - I think it pretty well confirms decisions will be out tomorrow.

I wish I hadn't checked - I won't sleep tonight haha

Mine still says 'under review'. When did your status change? Since it's early, I am assuming 'decision made' is a good sign!

I don't really know, I checked about a week ago and it was 'Under Review', and now it's 'decision made'. I really badly need funding though, and my heart will probably break if they don't offer anything.

That was quick and probably means you got accepted, although I don't want to get your hopes up! I would be excited.

Oh okay, I will try to keep it together till they get back to me  

 

Thank you guys!

to those applying to Munk, does anyone else has 'Decision Made'? that's what it says on mu application, but there is no trace of decision email or anything like that anywhere! And I am only mildly freaking out, is anyone joining me?

Hey guys i was going through the results and just saw that one person was accepted to the Harvard Graduate School of Arts &Science REECA program, did any one else her back anything? if You did not hear from the yet, does this result to a rejection letter? i'm just nervous waiting haha 

Thank God someone else noticed it too! I have been freaking out for days... I also saw that someone was waitlisted. I keep refreshing my emails and checking my spam box, I think I am going slightly insane.

 

Elkan, who emailed you?

I did hear back. It was an unofficial acceptance email; official acceptances will come later I'm being told. Judging by previous acceptance dates, the last two weeks of February is usually when they send out favorable decisions. That being said, I'm not sure if this means that they've already selected all the candidates.

What's your background? Did you get an interview?

That was my problem too - over 21k per year on tuition alone + living costs in Toronto turned me away from Munk - especially the lack of funding they offer. Especially when there are significantly cheaper and comparable or even better programs here in Ottawa (GSPIA + NPSIA). Munk does look great but not great enough to justify its extreme price tag (IMO). 

I applied to GSPIA, NPSIA, uOttawa's Master of Public Administration, and Carleton's Master of Public Policy and Administration. I work at Global Affairs currently, so it was in my best interest to stay in Ottawa anyways so I could continue my employment there during my studies. How about you?  

ah that makes sense! I am an international student, so I applied to Munk, Yale and Harvard for the European and Russian studies programs  it really upsets me that none of these programs offer funding, and there is no chance I could get into a PhD with an undergraduate MA from a British uni... ugh this is so frustrating!

Have you heard from any other schools yet?

If you check the results board and search for Williams, it will show that the first round of acceptances usually come out within the first ten days of March. Of course, acceptances continue to trickle in as the first round of people decline, but that's the general timeframe. 

thank you! like I said, i'm still learning how to operate gradcafe
