  1. Hi, I know this question might sound strange but it's just eating me up and I want to make sure once and for all. I did both my BA and MA in TESOL and applied for a second MA in Educational Technology for Fall 2013 and got accepted. At the time I wasn't confident to apply for the PhD because my MA GPA wasn't very high and I thought I didn't have a strong academic background for a doctorate degree in a different field from my previous studies. But now I believe I may have made a mistake and I should have taken the risk and gone for the higher level. I have encountered a few problems. The most important one is that I did not receive any funding from the university and according to the current MA students my chances for TA/RA positions are very slim next to PhD students. Another one is that from what I understand as an international student getting a student visa is very difficult when you are going for a second master’s degree, I’ve heard many have been rejected because of purpose of visit. I have applied 52 days ago and haven't heard from the embassy yet. So do you think is it possible for me to apply for a PhD degree at this point and change my second master’s admission to a doctorate? I know it might be too late but if I wanted to ask my temporary supervisor about this how would I ask them? Should I state the above reasons in my request? Thank you very much in advance for your time and guidance J
  2. Hi, I got average scores in GRE General. V 152 (53%) Q 155 (64%) and AW 3.5 (30%) I have a GPA of 3.7 and I'm an international (non-native in English) student applying to MA in Educational Technology. Should I report my scores to the schools that don't require GRE to support my GPA, or do my scores hurt my application? Thanks for your time
