Tz17 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Apparently Queen's MPA could be suspended for the 2024 cohort because of some review process. Feels bad if this happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cstudent1 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Anyone know if this is the only forum and reddit are the only forums global/international affairs applications are discussed? I don't know about you but compared to what I have seen on other years there has been little to no discussion. Best of luck to all! Tz17 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm wondering this too... last year it seemed as if there was so much more discussion. Not sure if there is another place for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanBanan888 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Hi everyone! I applied to MPPA and NPSIA, my application for MPPA is still "recommended for assessment." However, my NPSIA application moved to "review in progress by faculty," so I am hoping my application for MPPA will be moved soonish, since I applied to both programs on January 31st. I looked at older threads and it looks like most acceptances for MPPA are offered in March. Background: I am a Carleton University student, I have an undergraduate degree in Law with a concentration in Transitional Law and Human Rights and a minor in English. I am also completing another undergraduate degree in English with a concentration in Creative Writing. My CPGPA for Law was a 10.6 and for English it is a 10.8, I also have not completed Introduction to Micro and Macroeconomics (but I talked to someone from admissions and they said it doesn't hurt your application if you don't have it). I also don't have any government work experience, but I do have work and volunteer experience at the school. Best of luck to everyone! I will update this thread, once I receive an acceptance or rejection. I feel so nervous!!! Tz17 and Cstudent1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in a similar position as you in terms of cGPA (i think... based on the conversion guide I found online) except I'm finishing up my undergrad at Uoft. I have a good amount of research experience and publications however I also didn't complete the micro and macro courses though I'm planning on completing it if I get in to the MPPA via Athabasca online sometime during the summer. Goodluck to you too! I hope we both get in!! Nervous as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanBanan888 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I got my acceptance into NIPSIA this afternoon! My application for MPPA is still "recommended for assessment" I think I will wait until I hear from MPPA, and then I will make a decision. Good luck everyone! I feel like the decisions will start rolling in soon. rayaa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuantumCoder Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Applied to both Carleton's NPSIA and MPPA mid January. MPPA is still stuck at preliminary review required. NPSIA moved to recommended for assessment last week. I don't know if international students gets assessed later than domestic students or not. Just have to wait. pupflash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
