    Starting to think that if it doesn't come soon it may not come today at all :S I doubt they have someone working late after-hours doing this.

    same, i think they might not be coming today.. it's really late

    But guys, what about the insider tidbits? People were saying it would be today :mellow:

    i think it is today.. id ont' think people would screw with us that much, and it makes sense since it matches with the patterns we saw. it is possible were hearing in 12 minutes.. can you believe that? but like @Shlee467 said, its not for sure, and we could wait until next week.. which would be horrible!

    Here's what we know:

     

    2013, 2014, 2015:  First Friday 

    2010, 2011, 2012:  Tuesday

     

    Are we some tragic, unprecedented new set of three years? :P

     

    The Ed.M. online submission and materials received deadline for fall 2016 enrollment has now passed. Master's decisions will be made available online in late March 2016.

     

    why is this on their website... it can't be late march right???

    I'm going to go lurk forums again to try and figure this out. If we don't hear back today, my stomach would have been in knots since 7AM for no reason... Lol!

    same.

    Why do you say we wouldn't be hearing today? Based on the past, it has been on the first Friday of every March.

    that's what i'm hoping..........

    No science there.  Most likely after. I heard at 5:30 three years ago. But they could change things up. Plus, it's early and there's a good chance you're not going to hear today at all, sooooooo I'd say calm down, but that's a pointless statement :)

    ah i think we are hearing today.. if youve been following the posts people have said theyre calling accepted students next wednesday.. therefore we should hear today, since email notifications come out before then it should be today..

    This is so exciting!! If they make calls on Wednesday, I bet we'll hear Friday :D:D  Thanks for all the intel, snoops!

    I'm so nervous! Can't wait to hear back.. good luck to everyone. Do people know if they send out acceptances and rejections at the same time to everyone?

    Congratulations!!!!!!!!! So exciting!!!!! Would you mind me asking when you applied?

    I applied a while ago! I sent it in 11/23 i think and it was definitely ready for review by 12/3. I also think it really varies by department because @Heather1011 applied after me but heard back a week earlier!

    I GOT IN TODAY!!!!!  $10K merit scholarship!!! So overjoyed!

    BTW, it never said "under review".... I was refreshing it ALL DAY, no change, and then at 5:10 PM EST I received an email telling me to check the website (was on my way home from work so had the agony of sitting on the subway for 40 minutes hyperventilating).

    I'm not sure if this is a "know before you read it thing", but when I logged in my page looked exactly the same except there was a "View Your Decision Letter" and a "Complete Your Decision Form" button, so I thought the second button was probably a sign before I viewed the decision that I was accepted, because if you're rejected there probably wouldn't be a form button to complete.  Just a thought on that.

    CONGRATULATIONS! Hopefully I will hear soon!! that's so amazing! What did you apply for?

    This makes sense :)  You're probably right, although I though @nrvsandexcited94 is a masters candidate (fresh out of college?).  Although I like to believe that they are concurrently going through masters students... I mean, it is the faculty of each program that reviews the applications, I assume... and not all of them have to be looking at PhD candidates....

    @TheMonkeyOnMyBack hi! I am a masters student applying for language and literacy at HGSE and penn gse. my document was a transcript update of my fall 15 grades. I think they probably got mine out before christmas since i technically submitted on 11/23. my final rec just didn't come in til 12/3. I think they are going through both! i am at week 4 and a half though excluding christmas so I have been obsessively checking!

    There is a rumor going around that I hoped I could get some perspective on. On some of the other UPenn threads it is mentioned that the status changes to "under review" from "ready to review" when the committee is actually reviewing your batch of applications. I was wondering if anyone had had their status change or if you think that this is truly just a rumor. 

    Thanks!!

    I don't believe this is true! Mine has said Ready for review since 12/3, and i emailed them a week ago to add a document but they said they couldn't because they already sent my application out for review. So I don't think that changes! Hopefully I will get a response soon...

  13. Hi! I've been following this thread for a while so i thought I would join. I am applying for a master's in Language and Literacy and I am straight from a top 5 liberal arts undergrad. Is there anyone also looking at the same program and has an idea of its acceptance rate?
