  1. Has anyone heard from them yet? I see nothing on the gradcafe board for anything at all.
  2. Anyone know when financial aid will be available/posted? Got accepted into the teaching cert program and will very likely enroll pending what $$ I get. IIRC they said there would be a separate e-mail about financial aid, I haven't received anything yet. Cheers
  3. Boarding. Godspeed to all. See you on the other side.
  4. I've thought about this and I probably will, although paying $17 to get kicked in the groin if rejected seems a questionable investment.
  5. I have to board a 17 hour flight in 2 hours. This is beyond agonizing.
  6. If it makes you feel better, I just got the rejection e-mail. So I wouldn't read into LinkedIn at all My best to everyone else here, fingers crossed for you.
  7. Likewise Stanford. At least for my program.
  8. eat well, exercise, get to bed early
  9. This is a fun wait. Good luck to everyone.
  10. 3 people from admissions looked at my LinkedIn profile today or yesterday. Ahhh!
  11. Looks like some STEP acceptance phone calls have already gone out. Dang.
  12. Hello everyone! I'll throw my hat in the ring. Curious to hear others' opinions on the likelihood of HGSE admittance. Age: 31 Program/Concentration: Master of Education, TEP (History 5-12 strand)GRE Score: V 161, Q 146, AWA: 4.0 GPA: 3.57 undergrad (last 2 years – 3.88) / 2.3 grad GPA (abortive 1-yr stint at law school back in 2009)Work Experience: 2009-2011- taught English in China. 2011-2013 - worked in business development at a Chinese Edtech firm. 2013-2016 - Worked at Facebook HQ on a strategy team doing business development-type work. 2016-2017- Worked at Udacity, one of the founding sales team members and closed the first B2B deal in company history. 2017-present - sales director at a software company. Undergrad/Grad Institution (Public, Private, Ivy, etc..): top 25 US Public University undergrad / fringe T2 law school during abortive law school year LoR/SoP: 1 from my VP at Facebook, 1 from my VP at Udacity, and 1 from an old and esteemed undergrad professor back in 2008 who supervised my senior thesis What Other Schools Are You Applying To: TC, Berkeley, Stanford, USC I work 60+ hr weeks and took the GRE completely cold. I'm worried about my quant score and year of law school. For the former, I'd posit my work experience should overcome that. For the latter, perhaps youthful folly? lol. I got out when I lost my scholarship. In hindsight that was one of the greatest things that ever happened to me.
