Since I haven't seen any related posts for 2019, let's begin with myself. 

Program/Concentration: TIE (Master)
GRE Score: Not taken yet
GPA: 3.0 undergraduate (I've been leading my startup since sophomore year)
Work Experience: 4 years in EdTech startup as CEO; an EdTech product with 300,000+ global users
Undergrad/Grad Institution (Public, Private, Ivy, etc..): One of the best normal universities in China (global ranking 200-300), Chinese Literature major
Research Experience: Cooperating with local universities for their EdTech projects; one of which was listed in a national teaching project from Chinese MoE 
LoR/SoP: Since I don't have a supervisor for these years it's a bit difficult for me. Maybe from some professors that have cooperation.
What Other Schools Are You Applying to: Stanford, Northwestern, UBC, UCL

I'm both applying for EAS and EdTech... It's a bit awkward to say so, yet I have some more experience in the public sector in China, e.g holding a similar title to the city council here, having the chance to cooperate with local schools with my ed-tech products. Frankly speaking, I don't know if my targets are too high or not. 

I am applying to educational technology programs too. Do you have any portfolio visits from any of the schools yet?
