Hello everybody! I've started a Facebook group specifically for Penn GSE 2017-2018 students to connect. You can find it here https://www.facebook.com/groups/1346667225378828/
Please feel free to share with others you know what have been accepted but may not be on this forum.
Thank you! 

Just heard back from Penn an hour ago, so now I'm in the same situation as you, @midmarsh and @cokpala. Not sure how to go about making this decision! @Vulpix has provided so much useful insight for HGSE, but still very confusing.

I was accepted to Masters in IEP!! I can't believe I get to say "I got into Harvard!"
Congratulations to everyone

Can't wait any longer!
 
good luck to everyone, though

Good luck to you! For us India it's already Friday evening. We're expecting results around 4 a.m., so it'll be a long, long night :\

Well, I can tell you that refreshing this page and your email constantly does NOT help :\. But just like @pj060690, binging Netflix helps! Maybe try handing your phone over to someone for a bit ?  Might help with the anxiety. And deep, calming breaths :). We're almost there.

Thanks for putting us at ease, Vulpix! While simultaneously making us chomp down on our nails even harder

I know it's early, but I'm starting this thread because I think some Fall 2017 applicants already have questions/concerns (early preparation shouldn't be conflated with undue fretting!) , and it might be best to have a thread like this to keep things separate from 2015-2016 issues.
As for me, I am applying to Master's programs and am particularly interested in those which emphasize interdisciplinary study and flexible course choice. My professional background is in higher education, though I also have extensive volunteer experience with K-12 students, and I want to learn more about how I can strengthen the higher education/K-12 connection to the end of increasing  academic engagement among low-income youth. Academically, I have a BA in political science (4.1/4.33 GPA) and scored 170v/155q/5.5 on the GRE.
Best of luck to all and if anyone wants to trade SOP let me know!
 
 

Hi everybody!
My name is Lisha, I live in India and I'm also applying to International Ed programs for Fall 2017-2018. Currently looking at almost all the same programs you guys have mentioned, with a particular interest in UPenn, Harvard and NYU.
Haven't heard great things about the ICE and CIE programs at Columbia, but would love another opinion if anyone would like to share.
Giving the GRE on July 17th, after which it's SOP season all the way. Again, any advice is always welcome.
Excited to be here
