Hey!! Did anybody here who got into NPSIA with an RAship get contacted by their research faculty/director yet?  

Hi! I got the email saying that I will soon be hearing from the research director, but I haven’t actually received a follow-up email yet.

I am an international student as well! Well, I am going to give it a shot. It's one of the most expensive schools around the world, so I won't be attending unless I get some funding either. Still, asking them if they can provide some funding wouldn't hurt... I hope you have a better offer from a better school!

Good luck! It definitely can’t hurt and it would be great if you’re able to secure some funding. Would love to hear what they say if you have the time to update!

Anyone received the acceptance letter from NYU for their Master's program? I am surprised that they didn't offer me ANY funding! I received some good funding from other schools. Should I negotiate scholarships/fellowships or is it just a waste of time?

Hey! I received my acceptance today too. No funding either. I checked their website and it states that the IR department does not offer funding for Master's students. I will likely be turning it down. An amazing school and program but just so, so expensive as an international student.

omg thank you !! you just made me feeel a thousand times better

When did your status change on Carlton Central?

I got the email saying I was accepted with funding on Wednesday. On Friday my status changed from Recommended for Assessment to something like "Review in Progress by the Department" and then again to "Review in Progress by Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs". At the end of the day on Friday I got an email notifying me that my official offer had been uploaded in Carleton Central. It was weird because they said it could take 2-3 weeks for it to show up, but it was there in 3 days.

Wow that's an awesome funding package, congrats!

I am nervous because i received an email saying I was accepted with funding but on Carleton Central it still says Recommend to Assessment. I am nervous because I know I didn't have the econ requirements . I hope they didn't email me by mistake

I also didn't have the econ requirements, so my offer is conditional on re-taking intro micro and macro. But they still offered me significant funding, so don't worry!
