Should I take the fact that I have not received an email or status change as a rejection??? It seems like everyone else has received the decision, am I the only that has not??? Congrats to all those that have been accepted

Yep, I was using my saved link Yaaay we figured it out ... We all belong at Harvard LOL

So, I wonder why it is different \ hmmmmmm Did you both apply to the same program, maybe???

Jeeez, i'm going to take it as a bad sign that I can still access my account. It still is as it appeared when I submitted my application. I think they generally inform the people that are accepted first ... i knew it was a long shot but still sad hopefully, i am just reading too much into things

I am interested in education leadership for foster care children or in urban schools. None of the schools that I am applying to have a faculty member with interest of foster care. .... Is there a website that lists gpa/gre statistics and acceptance rate??? I know that they have one for law school and I have been trying to see if they have it for education schools

Thanks, I actually looked at that program but decided that I want to stick with leadership/administration instead of concentrating so heavily in urban education. Do I stand a decent shot at getting into any of these schools? What schools could I add to the list as backups (Education Leadership/Administration)??? Again, thank you so much for all of your help

Thanks for your reply! Money is of serious consideration for me. There are very few masters programs that will give me significant financial aid. I am already $50,000 in debt from private undergrad and the education field doesn't exactly pay (particularly since I am interested in urban education). I worked for 2yrs teaching in an urban charter school and I barely made enough money to support myself. So pursing my doctorate is really attractive option to me bc it would be paid w/stipend. Sidebar question... How many classmates of yours in the doctoral program at HGSE are African American or Hispanic???

I don't have a lot of experience in the education field... I worked for two years as teacher in urban charter school I am currently a research fellow - helping to analyze the effectiveness of the use of the stimulus dollars in my state These schools don't list the avg GPA but I am going to assume that my GPA is much lower than the mean. Which is why I am panicking and wondering if I need to retake the GRE. What do you think???

Side question- do underrepresented minorities get boosts in admissions?

I'm about to apply for my Doctorate Education (Administration or Leadership) Please help chance me at top programs My profile... i'm somewhat of a splitter 3.1gpa decent private school, 1380gre 3yrs work experience in education. first in family to graduate from high school/college Black Female Money is tight and I need to know if I have a reasonable chance at any of these programs Teachers College Harvard School of Edu Penn GSE UMich GSE Would it be easier if I just apply to get my masters? Should I retake GRE?
