    Has anyone received any email from world bank for MPA - EPM Program. SIPA said that WB will contact candidates in late January / Early February.

    Also WB will contact all the candidates nominated by SIPA or will only contact shortlisted candidates?

    I received an email from the WB on 4th Feb that I have been nominated to apply for a JJ WBG Scholarship. I have to fill out an application which is due on 17th Feb.

    Hey, congratulations! When did you send in your application? Just wondering since they said results will be released mid-March... not sure whether to be on the lookout or not! As for the financial aid packages, I believe there’s some info in the Penn GSE 2020 (or previous) thread on this!

    Thank you! I submitted my application in December and got the acceptance yesterday.

    And thanks, will follow that thread. I have applied for the UNESCO fellowship, the result of which will be released in April. I was just wondering if they provide any merit scholarship and if they do, what is the maximum that they give.

  3. I've been accepted to UPenn's International Education Development M.S.Ed program for the term 2021. Anyone here who has been accepted to the same program and received any funding? How much financial aid does UPenn usually offer?

    Thanks!

    Historically, your admissions comes with an announcement of McCourt Scholars Program. They like those with unique backgrounds and/or HYP/Duke/NW or Oxbridge backgrounds with easily defined policy interests. 

    Thanks, this is helpful! I was kind of hoping to receive the McCourt Scholarship (the odds were high given they select only 5 candidates). Although, I did receive some merit scholarship, however, I am thinking if I should negotiate for more. Not sure what is the maximum funding they give out, so I am still on the fence. Lack of good funding offer would make things quite difficult for me. 

    Any word of advice on negotiating merit funding?
