That is very encouraging! The schools I looked at said the same thing. Hopefully it will be the case in 3 years, after my schooling and internship I have a feeling it will be. What an exciting field!

Hi LTee, Where did you find school psychology rankings? I can only find clinical, etc. rankings. Would you mind posting a link? I am curious as well

Hi Karma, I don't know anything about the reputation of that program at all, unfortunately I know it is totally different, but the School Psych program is very well respected within the school systems around here. I would hope that carries over to the quality of the other graduate programs at UMass Boston. What I really mean to say is, it is not somewhere that is not well respected.

How funny! Well, we're really lucky (and awesome, obviously) to have gotten in after only applying to only one school hahaha. I can say that now because I was kicking myself for it prior to hearing anything Congratulations again! I am so excited...I can't wait to get started!!

I only applied to UMass Boston for reasons similar to those stated above. I was accepted into their M.Ed./Ed.S program!

I am very sorry to hear that. At least you still have some left to hope for! I have faith.

Same for me. I have received emails from my school including letting me know my file was complete and passed to the department, opportunity to interview, and finally an acceptance email all between 9-10 pm on weeknights, one on a Friday.

Yeah! I could pay for grad school

After reading some of the stories on this site, I am so paranoid about this happening to me! Well, not necessarily it being pulled but it being a mistake... like they sent out acceptances to the wrong list of people or it was sent too early by accident and I'm not really in. I know it is somewhat ridiculous to be worried about it as it must be a very small percentage of people that this happens to, but the school hasn't updated their website saying that I have been accepted yet, I just got an email from the director of the department telling me I was accepted and asking me to email back to let them know if I am going to attend. Also- said that I will be getting the official letter in the next week or two and will get all the information about financial aid, orientation, registration, etc. eeeeek. I hope I'm not getting too ahead of myself!!

I am finally not acceptance-less! My one school I applied to sent me the email last night. I am literally still shaking. I was so so so sure I wasn't going to get in and I was heartbroken by the idea. There is still hope, guys! I know it's so hard to think that way but there is!

Hi Meg! I'm also going to UMass Boston this upcoming fall. I just found out last night! I am still coming down from the high haha. I am going for a M.Ed./Ed.S. in School Psychology. It is the only school I applied so and I can't believe it worked out! Are you familiar with the area at all?

Hello to you! It's really funny... last night, right before I got this message from you I got an email from the Department Director and was accepted!!!!!! I am jumping up and down!!! I was starting to believe that there was no way I was going to get in and that I was really dumb for only applying to one school. I hope all is well with you!

Some do. Mine don't.

This is me too! I keep going back and forth between "I need to be realistic and know I probably won't get in so I don't get over excited and jinx myself" but..... "I need to think positively because what if all that negative energy is making it somehow not come true! Wish for what you want to happen not what you don't want to happen!!!" In the end I'm just going crazy trying to latch on to anything I can
