bananacoconut Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 Btw, McGill (Max Bell) said they’ll likely start sending acceptances this week for the MPP program. changeagent01 1
educatedkitkat Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 I just checked the portal for Concordia and saw my status changed! Accepted! Still waiting for an official email. No word from Carleton yet.

This is a relief to hear - Did you hear this from the school directly? From what they told me several weeks ago, admission offers should have been sent out last week so I was starting to get concerned...

Even if it's this week, it's surprising, considering that the FAQ says they'd start sending them in mid-Jan. I'm quite sure in the webinar, they once mentioned an earlier date (maybe Feb?).
Opzy Posted March 2, 2020 Posted March 2, 2020 Dear house. I got an email from Saskatchewan early February that my Application have been received by the Faculty and now with academic unit for Further review. Moreover, The online Application still under review Do you need to write them or just be hopeful for the best. M.A Political Studies Any news from MUN?
Svenpai Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Just got my official admissions letter and funding package from Carleton! 45k in funding (including TA ship), which I was incredibly surprised to see as I was expecting much less. I’m super stoked! Hope everyone gets the result they want. You got this! Edited March 3, 2020 by Svenpai bananacoconut 1

Yes, very true. I expected to hear mid-Jan as according to the FAQ; the first webinar I watched said early/mid-Feb; and then I think the last one I watched said late-Feb. Looking like mid-Mar at this rate, unfortunately! Keep me updated and I'll do the same! Cheers bananacoconut 1
Canadampp Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 I've received an acceptance from Concordia this evening. Still waiting on Waterloo.

I don't find it that surprising, coming from McGill. I have some less than positive opinions about Max Bell as a whole, which is why I didn't apply.

I'm interested to hear your opinion as I make my decision on which policy school to attend.

I called the office they said they’ll start sending out offers this week, until they run out of spaces.

CGPA was 10.5/12, worked in government in policy and program evaluation roles for 3 years, volunteered a bit with a federal MP and an Ottawa municipal councillor, 4 references. I hope this is what you were looking for!

changeagent01 Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Any responses from McGill's Max Bell? I called the school today, they said they'll send out offers this afternoon.

To those who are asking, this is coming from someone who's been to McGill for 3 years already. I just don't see it as a better school than the other ones simply because it's "McGill". It's too new for that. Edited March 5, 2020 by educatedkitkat
