Omg...I'm trying to call my SO but she must be sleeping right now. I'm so anxious to know if she got in or not!
 
Edit: She just called...no go  

I am sorry about this! Let your SO try again next year. No giving up !

Same here, and I'm not even the one who applied (my significant other did). I think I care more than she does, haha. 

I'm hoping the opposite.
I'm hoping that the online program gets fewer applications than expected for a few reasons.
1) It's a brand-new program that no one really knows much about (seriously, I went around asking HGSE students and no one knew anything about it). 
2) Most students are still iffy about online (although online opens doors for people who couldn't do in-person programs previously, many folks still want that Harvard experience).
3) It's a brand-new program and so many people don't want to be the guinea pigs for the first iteration of an experimental product. 

That's the program my significant other applied to as well! 
Hopefully results come out this Friday, but we'll see.
I wonder whether that program got many applicants just because it's online, or maybe it got fewer applicants than expected because 1) it's brand new and no one knows about it and 2) it's the first iteration of the program and many prospective students don't really want to be the guinea pig to try out this new product. 

I didn't apply, but my significant other applied to the online master's in educational leadership.
Hopefully the results are released on March 4th, but we'll see.

Me! and it's not even me applying to the program, it's my significant other.
For those who end up getting into the Master's program, have you considered doing a GoFundMe to help crowdfund part of your fees?

Good luck everyone!
 
I decided that I'm going to apply for the Fall 2025 cohort. In other words, not for a long time.

That's standard procedure. 

Are interviews only for PhD/doctoral applicants?
There's no way they have the time or resources to interview the Master's applicants, right?

Also, how do we apply for grants? 

Hello friends,
I'm not applying, but my significant other is. 
Are they absolutely strict about the cut-off for IELTS scores?
The wording seems a little ambiguous. 
They said they want a 7.5, with a preference for at least 7.5 on each section. 
My SO received 7.5 overall, with 7.5 on each section other than writing, where she got a 6.5. Is that going to automatically disqualify her? 

Hello everyone. Really excited for you all to be applying. I applied and was accepted this last cycle, and am happy to answer any questions people may have. Be brave, be yourself, and best of luck as you apply!
