Congrats to you too!

I also applied and got into UMD and BC's master, and Penn State, Purdue, and Fordham's phd. LA is definitely a great program! I know a senpai LA graduate who spoke very highly of it. I've already got phd offers before the application ddl of LA, so I think there's no need to apply to another master's program. Also, TC isn't generous on funding..

I got in!! But I've also got some phd offers so I really don't know how to make a decision...

I know Learning Analytics! I almost applied to that program I really like its curriculum

I took and submitted my GRE, b/c I was pretty satisfied with my score and I think it could demonstrate my quant skills. Just out of curiosity, what other programs did y'all apply to? There are a lot of education+statistics programs out there, but I don't see many that have a good combination of education and data science.

International students: to meet immigration regulations, international students must show proof of adequate financial support to cover the length of time of their graduate program. Information on an array of funding opportunities for international students can be found on the IIE Funding for U.S. Study website and this IIE publication. Also, while international students are not eligible for U.S. federal loan programs, they may qualify for private/alternative loans. Many lenders, however, typically require that a U.S. citizen or permanent resident as a co-signer on the loan. Information and tools to help you choose private loan programs most frequently used by Stanford students over the last few years can be found here. A comprehensive list of private loan programs is available at FinAid.org. Research and apply for external sources of funding, so you are not relying solely on the resources available from the institutions to which you are applying. Here is a list of external fellowships we compiled to help you. We hope that the information above is helpful to you as you prepare yourself financially for graduate study. Please contact us at gseadmissions@stanford.edu if you have any questions. Best wishes, GSE Admissions Stanford Graduate School of Education Oh thank you!! I've also applied to phd (and got rejected) this cycle, so it's possible that they forgot to put me into the listserv of master applicants.

In fact I didn't receive that email lol.. not sure if it means any sign of rejection..

Hmmm. I wrote a message to the administer yesterday and they replied and said they would talk to the relevant person. Hope the change will be made soon!

As a developmental/education/quant psych person, I feel excluded

I got rejected from the phd program and was forwarded to the master's program application. I don't think master's applicants will get an interview?

Has anyone applied to social research methodology phd from UCLA? Earlier the admissions office said the result will come out mid to late February, but I haven't any received info since then.

I've just finished the Fordham interview!! I prepared for it the whole morning but ended up not mentioning anything about my research experience. But POI described a lot of things the he's been doing and I got the chance to ask all of my questions. The interview was supposed to be 30 minutes but it actually took us 45 minutes to finish.

Yes! I've applied to education data science PHD, but I don't have high hopes. I haven't received any updates yet. Good luck to both of us! I also had a few questions regarding the application in early December so I sent emails to admissions, and they were quite responsive.

I am also applying to psychometrics program (master and phd)! I have no idea how much research experience is required for this type of program, so I'm super nervous. I haven't received any interviews yet...

Has anyone received info about interviews at this point? I'm applying to educational/quantitative psychology programs but haven't heard back from any of them.

Yes! Glad that someone has created this thread! I'm applying to SHIPS and master in education data science at the same time. Writing my statement of purpose day and night now

Congrats!! I didn't know the decision can come out so early?!

Just finished my GRE!!!! GRE is required for some of the programs at TC, including applied stat, the one I want to apply to. So I have to take it. If you have the time and energy, why don't you give it a shot? If you get a nice GRE score, I'm sure it would make your profile look stronger. Not sure about undergrad GPA either. Ask the admissions office maybe?

I'll probably apply to the applied stats program, if I get a high enough GRE score next week

Yes will do, thank you!!

Hi all! Does anyone here know anything about this new EDS master program in Stanford GSE? I really love it and it's my top choice now, but I want to get a sense of how competitive it will be (based on past statistics from other programs, maybe)

Hi y'all! I'm currently an undergrad senior applying for master programs for the Fall 2021 cycle. I'm interested in interdisciplinary studies combining education, psychology, and data science/statistics. Below is my profile, and I appreciate any comments/feedback/recommendations!

Coursework: Psychology: cognitive development (summer school, A), language acquisition (A), psycholinguistics (A), developmental psychopathology (A) Statistics/Data Science: research design (i.e. ANOVA, A), multiple regression (A), educational statistics (A), Bayesian theory (currently taking), econometrics (currently taking) Software: Stat: R (familiar), Python (intro), SPSS (intro), STATA (intro), SQL (minimal) Research: Qualtrics (familiar), Filemaker (familiar), Lookit (will be familiar) Experience: research assistant at my undergrad institution language acquisition lab for 2 years; hands-on experience on various projects; the most inspiring one is to conduct Rasch analysis on a language assessment test summer researcher at the same lab (language acquisition lab) remote summer intern (because of the pandemic) in a developmental lab at a very strong research university; main job is to test children through Zoom remote research assistant starting from this September in a language acquisition lab at another strong research university; current job is to design an experiment on Lookit a remote HR member at a non-profit org in China that aims to empower underadvantaged children through remote education TA of intro stat classes for Psychology, Government, and Sociology LOR: a LOR from my PI at my undergrad institution language acquisition lab; I have taken many classes with her and have worked with her for 2 years, so she knows me well; also she knows a lot of ppl in developmental psych a LOR from my summer internship PI a LOR from my current research lab PI; however, I have just started working with her and asking for a LOR right away seems very purposeful; OR a LOR from a professor I have taken a class with Award and funding: summer research fellowship at my undergrad institution summer internship funding conference funding (will present a poster at a data science conference deriving from my class proj) dean's list every year School list: Stanford educational data science (EDS): this is my fav, but I'm afraid I cannot meet some of the math prerequisites; also it's a brand new program Columbia Teacher's College - SMART: this program aligns with my interest well, but the curriculum seems somewhat easy to me UPenn: I actually haven't found a program that fits me well at UPenn; but I love UPenn and Philly so much!! Boston College - Psychometrics: I don't know much about this program, but from its website I like it This is a short school list, so I need your help to give me some recommendations!! Thanks
