When you compare the applicants of past years to the applicants of this year, the desperation rings loud and clear in this group. It sickens me.

Angelicasassy. Of course you don't have a saved link. The school must have created a website just for you to see!

Whoever you are, angelicasassy, we all know too much about your insecurities. "Buzz off?" ARE YOU TRYING TO KICK ME OFF OF THE INTERNET? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Does anyone know of doctoral programs in Higher Education that are particularly good at offering full funding to all its admitted students? I'm aware that some schools have fellowships that require a special application or TA-ships; however, I'm wondering if there are programs that offer full funding with acceptance.

I'm mostly looking at programs in the west, and currently considering Higher Ed PhD programs at these specific schools:
University of Arizona
UCLA (I'm a CA resident)
Penn GSE

Can anyone suggest other well-funded Higher Ed PhD programs even if they're not in the west? Personal anecdotes would be definitely appreciated!

ps. I'm aware that aligning faculty interests should be a high priority, too!

Don't feed the trolls. Clearly, some people have deep-rooted psychological issues beyond natural anxieties, or what is a more probable explanation is that the troll is a multiple-rejected applicant to HGSE, who spends hours lurking, obsessively reading up on and analyzing in painstaking detail each potential HGSE "competitor" (note how the lurking troll is able to cite or quote from posts we've made, sometimes quite old threads and posts), then expresses frustration from rejection, coupled with an innate sense of self-fabricated superiority based on narcissistic fantasy to cope with real-world social isolation. Not to mention creating multiple accounts....

Disregarding my indulgent pedantic psychobabble, the troll speaks for him/herself - in the field of education, would ANYONE want this person teaching in a classroom?? I think we needn't worry about that. Plus, any adcomm would (have already...) read the troll's posts and come to a clear decision as to whether they would want such a person in their program.

Not every board gets infected by such a person, but I've seen it on various boards of every type of special interest, and such posters vapidly follow the same routine - personal attacks, condescension, seemingly designed to rattle a person's nerves but ultimately derives from a person's inability to express their inadequacies and anger other than through the safe (well almost, IP logging and search is child's play) barrier of the internet.

I knew a person, same exact pattern of posts. In person and over the phone, he was incredibly kind. But he had deep seeds of bitterness from a physically abusive father and two failed marriages, and, unable to break through his real-life facade as the friendly, soft-spoken shop owner, unleashed his issues with abandon online every night. Personal emails were also along the same tough-guy lines. Was on a music board until he got banned, then took it over to ferrarichat.com, where he got himself banned yet again.

I would have thought the Grad Cafe would be an unlikely place to find this type of troll. Oh, and ballard011, don't forget to click the negative button on this post; you're not as anonymous to the moderation team as you might believe.

The online application link on the admissions website has been greyed out for weeks. Please go back to living your lives (if you have them? Sheeeesh). Thanks.

I don't have a saved link.

I also agree with multiple other posters- whoever you are Ballard, your comments aren't needed or wanted. If all you have to do is say negative things and mean replies BUZZ OFF.
