I got my MPPA response first (earlier in March) and both my offers were in the first round. I spoke to the person handling admissions and they said that they have $0 budgeted towards entrance scholarships towards international students, so they couldn't do anything about it... As for your application, I would probably call and email their office about it. I think the only reason why they got to my application was because I was being so persistent about trying to call them.

I've gotten offers (International Student) from Munk MGA, Carleton MA and MPPA. Munk is providing funding but Carleton is giving me literally nothing (even after leveraging Munk's funding). The graduate administrator at NPSIA lied to me saying that I would get a "favourable offer with a funding package very soon" and then offers me nothing... It this just a symptom of being an international applicant? They're also somehow never in the office. I've been at wits end for the last two weeks now because of all of this nonsense. My first choice is still Carleton just because its still cheaper to go there even considering the funding from Munk, but I feel like absolute shit for having to pay out of pocket and move to an entirely new city.

Still stuck on "preliminary review required" for my MPPA app... Do international students get their offers later? I have to respond to other program offers in the next two weeks and I'm getting a little nervous...
