Hi everyone! I just got an offer to Waterloo's MPS program which I am super happy about I also applied to Carleton MPPA, Queen's MPA, UofT MPP, and TMU MPPA (listed in order of my personal preference). Waterloo is probably tied with Carleton for my top choice so I am hoping to hear back from the other schools before making a choice, but I am so relieved to have at least heard from one school. 

Good luck to everyone and will hopefully report back if/when I hear from other schools!

Hi, I received offers of admission to Waterloo MPS and Western MA in Political Science. Only waiting for Carleton now, my status still says recommended for assessment. I will probably make a final decision once I hear back from Carleton to compare funding packages.

Carleton MPPA status just updated to "Review in progress by Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs"

Oh LOL yes - I was asking about where you saw your Acorn update! I've only applied to UofT and Carleton with UofT being my top choice  I'm honestly shocked the informal offer came so early since in previous years it looked like people got offers around March 16th/17th/18th.

Also got this today with the same funding offer! The letter was dated March 1st (when I got the update on Acorn) but I only received the application update today.

Got my official letter from UofT with the $3000 award!! I will accept it, so if anyone is going to Munk, let me know!

My Carleton status just changed to review in progress by faculty... so nervous! I hope they give me a decision soon. 

[xfinzo]

Just got my Carleton offer! I received about 10k in funding and a TAship guarantee. 

[tillster]

I just got my Carleton offer too! Congrats I got $9k but I don't think I got a TAship unfortunately. I assume it would be under the other scholarships. 

[BKermit]

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...

Congrats to everyone who got into the MPPA program. I was wondering if you guys think they're still handing out admissions or should I assume I didn't get in? My application still says recommended for assessment.
