Yea - I received an email in early Feb (c. 3 weeks back) asking me to apply for the JJ/WB program. It required submission of some other personal statements and references. As I was saying - the process is fairly opaque but I think it was HKS that nominated eligible applicants (did you fill in a survey that the MPA/ID program had emailed about in January)? You need to satisfy a set of criteria to be eligible (be from a developing country, at least 3 years of development work exp etc etc).

It’s odd - on the FAQs to the JJ/WBG application, they say successful applicants would be informed within 3 weeks of the application deadline but isn’t that today? Do people find out about the funding even before hearing on admission?

I’ve applied for the MPA/ID too. Have you thought about funding options if you were to be accepted? I’m kind of entirely leaning on the Joint Japan/World Bank program although really unclear to me how that process works and how competitive it is.
