Two reference letters are required. Letters of reference should come from academic referees - professors, academic advisors or instructors - who have taught you or supervised your work. If you have relevant professional experience, you may choose to have one reference letter come from a professional referee who has supervised your work. Applicants who have been out of school for several years may choose to two professional referees in place of academic referees.

You must identify and provide a valid institutional e-mail address for each referee on the application form in the applications portal.

平特五不中 will send an email to the referees asking for a reference in support of your application to be admitted. If no response is received, a reminder message will be sent every two weeks. In rare cases a referee may decline the request; you will be advised by email if your selected referee declines, and you will be asked to provide an alternate. Referees will be invited to login to a secure portion of the 平特五不中 website where they can upload the letter(s) of reference.

Note:听you will be able to make changes on your applications portal听account, such as updating email addresses, replacing referees or adding a new referee should one decline the reference request.

Letters must meet the following conditions:

1. The program the student has applied to must be clearly indicated and the letter should include information that would aid an admissions committee in making an informed decision.
2. Letters must be dated and not be more than 12 months old.
3. The referee must indicate his/her position and full contact information at the institution.

Admissions decisions will be based on students鈥� application dossier, with consideration given to each component of the application. Applicants鈥� personal statement, professional experience, academic achievements, test scores, and reference letters will all be influencing factors in admission decisions.

We begin sending offers in November with the intention of completing the process by the beginning of April.

However, our intensive 11-month MPP program is designed to accelerate your return to the workforce, and as a result, it is not recommended to continue working at the same time. It is expected that the average workload for the MPP is 55-60 hours per week. This may increase during exam weeks, or key policy lab milestones.听

The MPP is a wonderful opportunity to invest in your professional skills and learning, and your time will be consumed with courses, assignments, group projects, events and networking opportunities. During the second half of the MPP, the policy lab will be added to your course load and will further reduce your availability for extracurricular activities. In addition, you might be pursuing new career opportunities which will add more pressure to your schedule.听

As a result, it is our strong recommendation that students do not continue working during their MPP.听
