  1. It took a while for my status to change after I was called by the department (nearly 3 weeks)
  2. I would say that this depends on your career goals. Do you plan to work in student affairs as a practitioner or do you hope to become a faculty member in the long run? If you are looking to work in student affairs long term I would focus on programs with funding and practical experiences. You will need to be able to demonstrate skills applicable to your functional area, which for new professionals (post-masters) is not typically centered around research. If you plan to go the faculty route long term I would consider what type of research opportunities are available at each institution, and if you can get research experience and funding that is worth seriously considering. Professional organizations like ACPA can also offer you lots of opportunities to build relationships with faculty and pursue research projects. I know many student affairs professionals, myself included, that attended masters programs that were less prestigious than the schools you mentioned and attended schools where they had funding and were still admitted to the PhD program of their choice.
  3. Anyone heard from the Higher Ed PhD program?
