Hello kidchaos, thanks for your question.
Did you receive any feedback from those programs about why they did not admit you?
I think the most important factor in your reapplication is what has changed since your last application. Can you call out which experiences in your profile are new since you last applied?
I’m happy to comment more with this additional information.
Best of luck,
Brian

Hi
i know it has been over 2 months since you have replied to this post and I am terribly sorry for not replying much earlier but I have been travelling off and on for work and getting my applications ready so it has been a bit crazy.
However, Thank you so much for replying and to answer your question everything that I have listed is since applying last year. My last year pofile is on this thread if you would like to compare. https://gmatclub.com/forum/early-career-ngo-background-101854.html
Would love to hear any further feedback from you. Thanks once again for taking the time.
