  1. Out of the two schools I applied to, I got rejected from my reach option about 2 weeks ago. Before that, I was a bloody wreck. However, now that I'm waiting for the next school, I'm a lot more calm. It seems like the nerves come in waves and I'm enjoying some time off from compulsive checking. I've also come to accept that when a school says that its results will come out at a certain time, they are not lying, and that the results page is a good indicator of when results come out.
  2. I'm really loving all the positive teacher-vibes on gradcafe. It makes me proud of going into the profession!
  3. Got my first rejection a few days ago. I have to admit I liked the anticipation of waiting more than knowing I got rejected. I thought I was going to feel relieved either way when the decisions came out, but instead I'm just bummed. I'd like to think everything happens for a reason, and I really fell in love with the other school I applied to so I'm hoping that getting rejected from this first school is just a way of making sure I go to the school that fits me best.
  4. I got my rejection via email (for STEP) on Friday so if you haven't heard that might be a good thing. Good luck to everyone who got accepted!
  5. I would be curious about this as well.
  6. After going through waves of worry and calmness, I think my programs are calling within the next few days to let me know my fate... dun, dun, dun. Not that this makes any difference whatsoever, I was just wondering what time admissions peoples usually call to let you know if you're in. Is it just anytime during the day, do they call more in the morning/evening?... any input would be terrific! Knowing might calm my excitment a bit ("oh man, I'm finally finding out!!") and I might be able to go about my day in a more reasonable fashion.
  7. It looks like some people got accepted to STEP yesterday! I'm not sure on other Stanford GSE programs though.
  8. Oh man... well I guess that is going to make today one of the most anxiety ridden days of my life. And thanks so much for the update!! Keep us posted on your decision!
  9. I applied to UCSC's MA in education program. I think that notice about admissions doesn't go out until mid-March. Any hopeful banana slugs out there?
  10. I wonder about this happenning sometimes! Like what if the admissions committee can figure out who I am based on my board activities!? I guess it shows my passion and enthusiasm for grad school? Lol
  11. As the time ticks on, it seems like this forum is getting darker and darker... I'm trying to stay optimistic and remember the person I was when I intially applied for applications. I thought I had a shot then and nothing has changed.
  12. I thought I had it under control until yesterday and now I'm in crazy checking mode. I seriously can't go a couple hours without re-checking my emails. It's bad guys, really bad. The first month of waiting passed okay, but knowing I won't be sure til the end of March is giving me anxiety. My whole life is going to revolve around this, and the limbo state is no fun.
  13. Wowwwwwwwwwwwwww! Loved this! Thank you, I needed that right now. I hope you have a week filled with good karma.
  14. "A masters in education cannot be that hard to get into because you'll only be a teacher!" Great. Thanks. Now if I don't get in, not only do I really suck at life, but if I do, I'll only be a teacher.
