  1. I applied to a PhD program, but got accepted to the corresponding MSEd program yesterday. While I'm definitely honored I probably will not be able to swing the large cost of tuition even with the scholarship that was offered. Does anyone know if Penn will ever 'upgrade' someone from MSEd to PhD (if that was their original application) if PhD spots are declined? Like a waitlist of sorts? Or do they have a separate waitlist? I plan on asking someone from the program but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here first.
  2. I applied to the PhD in Sociology & Education and have also not heard anything. Let's keep each other updated if we hear something!
  3. Hi guys, New here- I tried the search function but could not find anything that fully answered my question so here goes: I plan on applying for PhD program entry for Fall 2018. Applications seem to be due in December 2017, but I'd like to get a head start. How soon is too soon to contact potential POIs? For those of you who are already admitted or in progress, when did you start reaching out and/or when do you think a good time would be? Also, what percentage of POIs actually responded back to you? I noticed in some threads it seems that many do not even respond. I don't want to overwhelm them, but I also don't want to wait until too close to application time. Thanks!
