  1. Hi guys, I've been creeping for a while and I saw that some of you guys got into Carleton's MPPA a few days ago. I got in yesterday evening with a $15000 scholarship! I'm soo excited! It's my top choice. I'm still kinda worried about the cost though. I didn't get a TAship or RAship -or at least I don't think so. The Offer of Admission letter mentions them, says my funding package "may be comprised of a Teaching Assistantship and Research Assistantship", but it isn't mentioned in my statement of standing. So I'm 99% sure that means I didn't get it. Do you know if there are other ways to get a TAship? To apply separately for one somehow? Or get on a waitlist? Or to get it in the second year maybe? I'm slightly disappointed because my GPA surpasses the minimum requirement of a 10 point GPA for a TAship in order to qualify by quite a few points. I got a Domestic Entrance Scholarship, which required a 10.5 GPA. So that's surprising I got one but not the other. I think I'm going to email them and as politely as possible ask if there is any alternative way to get a TAship. Also, do you guys know if the co-op is ever paid? At other schools it is, but whether or not it is paid is very pointedly not mentioned on the website. That makes me think it is not. And then there is the 21 days to accept. I won't have heard back from all my schools. What happens if you accept but then later decline? Does anyone know? Sorry for all the questions lol. You guys may not know. Just thought I would ask.
