    So I'll be honest. I was a low key wreck yesterday and the day before after seeing acceptances and rejections start rolling onto the results page. Someone in results said they reached out to their POI to get an update because they felt GSE was taking too long? So I gathered up the courage to email my POIs to see if there was any sort of update I'd missed out on (or if they could at least tell me I'd been rejected so I could rip the bandaid off). 

    The reply was along the lines of advisors/department have done their part, it's now in the deans office, "results go out late Feb-early March". We'll update you if anything changes.

    So I thought I was done for. I decided to reply back to at least thank them for letting me know what the situation was today, but I've recently gotten a reply back saying they received an update from the admissions office and I'll get an official notice that I've been accepted.
    I've been accepted. ?

    So lots of things are happening in lots of different ways. Don't give up. Even if it doesn't happen this year don't give up.

    Hi all! 
    To those who got in, congrats! To those who didn't, I'm sorry. It's not because you aren't amazing. I'm speaking as a current Stanford GSE student. A few members of my cohort and I were reflecting today on this day last year. A good hand of people didn't have interviews but were accepted, so if you didn't get one that's not on you! I was interviewed, but apparently in my track that's more common. Last year's acceptance rate was under 3% because of the sheer number of applicants. 
    If you have questions or want to reach out feel free to DM me. I'm not your typicaI applicant as I didn't submit GRE scores, I took a break between grad school and taught for four years, and actually come from a non-sociology background (background is in STEM), so my profile may or may not help. Anyhow, I wish you all the best of luck and know that you'll find your next path soon enough!

    Hi selah,
    I think in this case, probably steinhardt processes apps at different paces for different concentrations within Teaching and Learning program. We have two fellows above who are in the same concentration of science and environmental education received interview notifications at the same time. I think we may just wait and see if there's any further update for us in other concentrations!

    I'm going to echo @gvjcb1000000 in thanking everyone. I feel so lucky to have found you all when I did. You guys made this experience so much more bearable. During some of the toughest moments, I felt like you guys were the only people who could understand what I was going through. I even got some really good laughs in -- we're a funny bunch! 
    Maybe we'll cross paths one day in-person...and won't even know it . 
    Best of luck to all those who are waiting on results from other schools and to all the MA applicants!!

    Hi,
    This was a bit of a blow and knock in confidence, but telling myself it's ok because it was important to try anyway. I wish you all an amazing future and journey. I hope that it will work out brilliantly and maybe even more so as a result of a rejection.   
    Will most likely not check gradcafe after this but just to say appreciate you all, take care ❤️

    Even when my journey this year has ended, I still keep coming back to this forum. I think I will keep doing that for the rest of the year. I have decided to apply again in 2022. I don’t know what I will be doing till then. Pop in and say hi here whenever you have the time. It was lovely meeting all of you. The support you provided helped me get over the sorrow. ?

    Depends on what you're looking for? You can look through the results page of Grade Cafe under Education as well. I also applied to NYU and Colorado University-Boulder. Columbia - Teachers College has a great reputation too.

    Two more weeks of waiting for Masters applicants. 
    GOOD LUCK to those of you who will get results within only hours of waiting.  ?
    My heart is pounding for you all! 
    At this point, I am even grateful that February only has 28 days, meaning less days to wait until early March when all the masters decisions get to send out.  ?
