Just wondering anyone applied to Stanford GSE? Many people said it’s a lot harder to get into Stanford than HGSE and Penn GSE (overall difficulty).... I was rejected by Stanford around a week ago so I’m kind of scared....
it is! i got rejected from stanford too. they have a lot of students who took a gap last year...whereas HGSE didn't allow students to gap during Covid. I heard the program I applied to only accepted less than 10 students... especially because their cohorts are around twenty something. so don't worry! keep your head up high. I think HGSE won't be as selective as stanford

Hi, thank you so much. I don't recall my application ever changing status until their decision was made. That being said I hadn't been checking it much lately.
congrats! how did you click on your application? my portal just says the checklist
-
my friend who also applied was contacted by admissions last night regarding some question about her application. I think they're reviewing everyone still! but should be completed soon. Fingers crossed!

I asked this in one of the virtual sessions and they said they would be sticking to roughly the same amount of students (~600 I believe)
so that means each program will have a lot more students then...im curious about how the cohorts are going to be

Hi Guys, wanted to get a head start on fall 2021 applications for Stanford GSE. I'll be applying to POLS!
I see on the application requirements page it says SOP should be around 1-2 pages single spaced...yet the application system seems to only allow 2500 characters. Did they change the requirement this year and shortened it?

Hey guys,
Hope yall doing well during this unexpected pandemic. So, I'm considering applying to the HDE program in this application cycle, but I am not so sure about my chance. My major is philosophy and I haven't taken a single course in the field of education, whereas I do have several job experiences that are closely related to education and mental counseling.
Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone is also applying to the HDE this year?
I'll be applying to HDE as well! worried because other than a few years of work experience in education i dont really have mental health counselling or psychology background. not sure how the new programs are going to play out next year.

Also, for all past applicants, does anyone know if the HDE program need a psychology background?

Hi! Planning to apply to ELOE program this year. Does anyone know if the change in curriculum affects the acceptance rate? I see there are only around 4 programs now, but different concentrations. I wonder how this will impact admissions.

Hi!
I'm planning on applying for HGSE for Education Policy. I wanted to see if anyone have any experiences in HGSE or heard things about the program. I currently only have 1.5 years of work experience in education consulting in China...so I am worried that they might not like what I do (I essentially help high school students and families plan their activities/study schedule/application for college admissions, but very ETHICALLY). I'm also worried they might consider me as too young..I'll be 2 years out of undergrad by the time I apply.
Usually what kind of applicants do HGSE like? Is it true they like people who have worked in the public sector/research more?
Is there any program under HGSE that is "easier" to get into than the other?
What is the culture like? Would love to have you all share anything you know on it! HGSE is my dream program and the Ed.M in policy and management is exactly what I think I would need to help me achieve my goals.
Looking forward to hearing some of your responses! Thanks!

Hey guys!
Hope all of you are hearing good news soon! I'm planning on applying for the next cycle...2021. But I wanted to post my stats (so far) here and see if you guys have any recommendations as to how competitive of an applicant I am, and any tips for what I can do to strengthen my application!!
Program/Concentration: EdM Education Policy & Mgmt
GRE Score: V: 162, Q: 160, AW: 5.0 (retaking in June)
GPA: Undergrad: 3.752 , cum laude （not education related major...)
Work Experience: 1.5 years as an education consultant in China, independent English writing tutor in China + volunteering at a migrant school teaching English (that's it... I'm worried about my lack of work experience)
Undergrad/Grad Institution (Public, Private, Ivy, etc..): Undergrad: Private, top 30 in US
LoR/SoP: 2 from former faculty members from undergrad (1 professor, 1 academic advisor) + 1 from my current boss (which I believe will be strong)
What Other Schools Are You Applying To: Considering Columbia TC, Stanford, UPenn1.Does HGSE like to see research experiences? I'm worried about that aspect...HGSE is definitely my dream program, everything about it fits my goals.
2. Have you heard of any program under HGSE that is relatively "easier" to get accepted into?
Thanks! Best of luck guys.
