There was a post to that effect on the fb page (was that you?). Got some replies.

Thanks. I'm actually taking it a lot harder than I thought, considering I was 50/50 between Penn and HGSE this morning anyway. I'm just frustrated with my timing. Oh well. Congrats to everyone who got in. Would have been shocked if you didn't! Have fun! Unlucky Edugy. That shock goes for you :/

Dinged. Sadface Oh well. Finally can get my PennKey

Good luck staying sane Loseric! Hopefully you'll return to good news

Yeah, "next week or two" - not exactly music to our ears. Let me spin this: They've been holding masters notifications until all the doctoral students had their decisions. Now that the Ed.D. and Ed.L.D. decisions are out, they can release masters decisions. Tomorrow. Maybe. I hope.

Y u no luv us hahvahd?

Congrats Loseric! When did you apply?

Fishy Fishayyy. By a mile. That ad agency should be brutally murdered (Yes, I'm taking a dark turn there. But seriously)

Umm okay. Well I feel bad using you guys. I just keep checking here and figure that's how I'll know when to go try to figure out the hgse site haha

What do y'all mean by "status"? That thing with the checkmarks?

Maybe it included EdD's? It was ranked last year. (Top 10 too)

I'm a little surprised it took 30 pages (and how many since we officially got antsy?) for someone to propose this sublimely clever idea. Shoulda thought of that.

The ed school rankings are even more useless than their other rankings. But yeah, let's see who's #1 (I'm saying SUSE, although that may be too logical. Maybe Texas, in an upset.)

Housing talk? Not yet, I don't want to jinx myself

I studied philosophy in college, then went into the navy for a couple months, then started a program to be a teacher and was in the middle of that when I applied. In my essay I basically talked about how I've been helping people with college/law school/commissioning essays for years and really am fascinated with the admissions process. No idea how that worked but it did.

Are we doing this Price is Right style? Closest without going over? lol

Put me in for.... idk. 4:26pm mañana

Anyone want to make odds on the decision day? My money's on tomorrow, but that may be optimistic. I just want to make my deposit somewhere!

I haven't even checked my status once today. I'm not stressing about this at all. Who is this person and what has he done with me??

I slept in today. 4 hours of stress avoided! lol

Well mostly there's just sooo many students/faculty/staff. I don't really want to back to my giant state school experience. I actually am not sure of the exact size of the EP or HE cohorts at TC, but the overall number of students is just huge. I much prefer the smaller programs at Penn, for instance, where I feel like you'd know everyone in your program, and recognize most of the people at the school (600 students vs 5000). The size of the building is a small factor, too. It's huge and somewhat labyrinthine. It's also older, which makes it very beautiful but it really shows its age in some places.

Haha, same. Well, it's been nice knowing y'all

Had my visit today. I thought the student reps from the HE program were great in person, at least. The Columbia campus is gorgeous, and most of TC is really beautiful. Morningside Heights is really amazing, enough to really tempt me towards TC. The size was a little off-putting for me. There's a ton of students and programs there. I've had a loooong day so I'm not sure what else to say about it. I would definitely consider going, but I don't think it could edge out Penn for me personally.

I'm visiting on Monday. This is my first time in NYC as an adult, and it'd be reeealllly tempting to live here.
