Strider1 Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Hi Guys, had my interview for MPA on 22nd Feb. It was about 20-25 mins on a case study on Coca plantations in Colombia. Questions were only about the case study and the Prof. who took the interview informed that the results will start rolling in from April onward. Best wishes to all the LKY applicants. Cheers!

This is the automatic reply I got a few days back when inquired regarding some issue: 'We are in the midst of processing applications. Shortlisted candidates who are required to attend an interview will be notified via email between February to March 2019. Please note that not all shortlisted candidates will be interviewed. Applicants will be informed of the final admissions and scholarship outcomes between April and June 2019.' I hope this answers your question. Cheers!

Prepared my SOPs much in advance with dozens of revisions and contacted my referees for recommendation letters by July last year. Had an MPA degree on my mind for a long time now and this happens to be my 1st and final attempt.

I heard last year they released results mid-March. How long did your interview take? Mine only went for about 20 mins. Marky1985 1
Repat Hopes Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) The results release dates have varied in previous years with initial release dates ranging from mid-March to early April. I received a generic email advising that interviews continue through the month of March and results are released in April. News on the outcome can't come soon enough =/ I have yet to receive an interview invitation (unsure if that's a good thing or not as I can't figure out what criteria is used by LKYSPP for selecting applicants to be interviewed) Edited March 5, 2019 by Repat Hopes
Shubhs Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Hi All, So from what I understand, there are four scenarios after you have made the application. 1. You get a direct admission offer along with an offer for scholarship, 2. You get a direct admission offer without a scholarship, 3. You get a call for the interview and then the process moves forward, and 4. You don't get an admission offer. So for people who have not got an interview call till now, option 3 is out for them. The rest of the options, however, are still open! This is my case too. Still lurching in obscurity. Therefore, whoever has an update on their application it would be great if they could share it here. Please validate these scenarios if one agrees. Thanks sspxs, Marky1985 and Repat Hopes 1 2

Repat Hopes Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 Fascinating profile, Lurcher! You must have had a killer SOP with your journalism, writing skills and experience. Wish you all the best!

Iam from India On my application will check with admissions office again I called them up last week to check. They said my application was not processed, as my degree scroll was not given. They raised this point earlier as well and I replied that i have given and thats what i have at my end. Nevertheless they moved my application status from submitted online to physical verification done. But even after a week i have not got any interview call. I called them again today. They say that not all will be interviewed. Not sure if they are telling this to coverup the mess on the document pending thing or is there a precdence of not interviewing and getting admitted I applied for MPA
Marky1985 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Last Dec the admission office informed me that I lacked one document in my application, which is my passport, then I sent to them the photocopy. They replied to me saying that my application status was already changed to complete and verified.

Spurs Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Received an offer of admission to the MIA programme. No mention of funding. Ensobila 1
Shubhs Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Hi, has anyone heard from the school on admission results yet? While I know they have stated that they will roll out the results from first week of April but just thought if someone has heard from them, it could help us know the revised timeline.

Marky1985 Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 I was just curious, if u applied for MPP, is tjere a possibility that u will be approved for MPa or MIA? Thanks
sspxs Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Hello. It seems that programs different than MPP have already received offers. Guess that MPP is most requested, and they might be taking their time to decide.
