I wonder why they do it that way Exactly! I accepted the offer for GSPIA, but I'm hoping Munk replies soon! although the price of the program is throwing me off a bit! Just wish they could keep up with NPSIA and GSPIA ElleG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irnerd Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 15 hours ago, ElleG said: LSE is great, I am from London, it is an amazing city. Are you concern about the cost of it all in London. Are you leaning one way or another? I am debating between Munk and NPSIA, I applied to GSPIA as a back up but the French requirement was a concern for me. What is your current job if you don't mind me asking? i used to live in the uk for a bit so i know how pricey london can be i've been out of school and have saved for grad school, but it would be tough spending so much more at lse than npsia (as well, npsia is really well connected to the federal government and that's where i wanna be nayways. on the other hand, lse is one of the best schools internationally and london is an amazing city. i also like that you can do a regional specialization at lse - but im still waiting to hear back) and ah well those are all really good choices! like i said to someone else earlier, i think it depends on what you want from your program. if you're leaning more towards private sector work, i think munk is definitely the best fit. u of t/toronto is a great place to be, and you really cant go wrong with any of your choices ElleG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coffeeandeducation Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Does anyone who applied to Munk know how to access acorn with their applicant number? Last year, applicants could assume that they were accepted by logging in and seeing that they were 'invited' -- around like March 12ish... I thought I'd ask because I'm impatient lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grad student pub, "Mike's Place" (named in honour of Lester Pearson) is pretty decent... nothing spectacular on tap, but the beer's alright and the food is probably the best on campus (especially the curries).

When you have that use it to register then you can use acorn coffeeandeducation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that MGA applicants will not hear back until next week, or the week after... MPP usually hears back a week or two earlier, if everything ends up being the same as last year!
