  1. Hi folks! Great to see everyone's acceptances coming in. I'm a current NPSIA student and would be happy to chime in and answer any questions you may have about the program or Ottawa. For those of you who haven't heard back yet, there's still time - stay positive!
  2. I did both micro and macro in my third/junior year - macro in the summer semester - and was admitted in mid- February. If I recall correctly, however, you are allowed to complete the econ requirement in your first semester at NPSIA.
  3. Hello everyone! I figured I'd post an update as I received an acceptance from NPSIA yesterday via email. A bit about my applicant profile: 3.84 GPA and honours undergraduate degree in political science from a Canadian institution, strong letters of recommendation, good extracurriculars (non-profit co-founder, community involvement, co-president of a club, etc.), decent work experience (4 internships including one with the U.S. Department of State), and an undergraduate research assistantship. I can't assess the quality of my personal statement but I guess it was passable at the very least ? Along with admission I received a funding package including a research scholarship, TA positions for both years of the program, two departmental scholarships, and a domestic entrance masters award. I couldn't be more excited; this funding package really sweetens the deal and is making NPSIA one of my top choices (truth be told, I had been looking at academic MAs in political science elsewhere as my top choices). I'm around 75% sure I will be accepting the offer. Best of luck to all of you - you've got this!
