peppermills Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Has anyone reached out to UW asking about the status of their application? I've contacted the program officer several times over the past two weeks and haven't got anything back, not even an acknowledgement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did any one else receive an admission offer for the MPPA program at Carleton with no funding/scholarship information on it? I did and I was a bit surprised considering that when I last applied for the program a couple of years ago my admission letter had indicated that I was to receive funding. Yeah, I got an offer from Carleton two days ago with no mention of funding. I did apply after the funding date though, so i wasn't surprised. mars_maa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwnt Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Just got accepted to U of Ottawa's MA in Public and International Affairs. Still waiting to hear back from SFU's MPP and Carleton's MPPA but I hope my acceptance to UOttawa is a sign that my application (to all three schools) is competitive. My top choice is SFU so crossing my fingers for that. I have until April 5th to respond to Ottawa so I might follow up with SFU and Carleton in the next week or so. Wishing you all luck with your applications mars_maa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argotnaut Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Has anyone heard from the Munk MPP program yet? I have received offers of admission from Waterloo and Carleton, and am anxious to hear back from Munk before making my decision.

Someone please email them, I sent an email last week and got the same "Mid-late March" timeline that someone had posted earlier in this forum. Maybe if someone sends an email now we can get a more narrow timeline, potentially even an exact date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I looked at previous forums, they release offers in waves between mid-late March. Second round offers are in April. Whatever the outcome is for you, I hope it works out!
