Belatedly accepted to the M.S.Ed Educational Policy program. big move from LA to Philly! A bit worried about housing and the area in general as I've never been to the east coast. Any recommendations on how I should approach housing and how Philadelphia is in general?
Wow, this is great. I took everyone's advice and emailed some of the schools I've been waitlisted/rejected from. I'm actually debating on whether I should reapply (in hopes of attending a top-tier university in my field of interest) or accept admissions from a lesser renowned institution (which gave me a fairly generous fellowship)...
Alright. So I didn't get accepted to the school of choice (after being waitlisted) so I plan on reapplying next year despite being admitted elsewhere. Does anyone have experience doing this? Do you think it will improve my chances if I indicate that I was previously waitlisted to the program on my statement of purpose when reapplying? Any feedback welcome! =)
