Thank you so much. My fingers are crossed and prayers said for all of us applying!

Thank you! Just messaged you directly. ?

I am hoping it is okay to ask this, but would anyone be willing to look at my Statement of Purpose and give me some feedback? I have been working on it for several weeks now, and am feeling stuck. ?

Hi @mintchocol8e! Thanks for starting this! I love having some community as we all get through this. I'm applying to Stanford GSE, though for a master's degree, specifically the POLS program. I'm still working on my SOP for the different programs I am applying to. All of my LOR writers are locked up though, which is a relief. I'm hoping to get my materials submitted to the different programs by Christmas to give myself a little buffer just in case. Crossing my fingers for you, me, and all of us applying this year!

Thank you for sharing! SO wish I could come to an on-campus event! @McPerson, what have you liked most about HGSE so far? And the ELOE program specifically?

Hi again all! I was on the HGSE website and saw that they have an in-person open-house later this month on 9/30. Is anyone planning to go to it? I wish I could be there, but I can't because of how far away it is.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS! If I have questions later, can I message you to get your insider perspective?

Glad you are joining us again on the journey, @TabTurbo! Really appreciated and love all you posted in last years thread. Also would love hearing any and all tips/advice/suggestions from those that have applied before. Thank you so much in advance!

A little bit about me as an applicant (thanks @DogeCoin for the template from last year): Program/Concentration: ELOE/No ConcentrationGRE: Not planning to take. I feel like I've been out of school too long to take it and do well at itWork experience: 9 years as an elementary school teacher in the U.S.Undergrad: BA in Elementary EducationUndergrad GPA: 3.3Research: None for me. I hope this doesn't hurt my chances ?LORs: 1 from a professor from my undergrad that I have kept in touch with, 1 from my principal, 1 from the director of a tutoring center I work at part time. Other info: If I get in, I would be long distance from my husband for the year. I would love to chat with other applicants that might be in a similar position.

Hello everyone! I have been lurking a while, but I wanted to get the ball rolling for all of us looking to apply to HGSE for Fall 2023! It seems like most everyone here is very supportive, and I can't wait to connect with other applicants! I copied what @TabTurbo shared last year (thank you SO MUCH for doing that!), and have tried to update it: HGSE Basic Info School Website | Degree Programs | Admission Info | Financial Aid | Cross Registration Introduce Yourself | Upcoming Events | Virtual Campus Tour | Connect Recorded Webinars (lots of great info on admission tips, international students, student life, career & alumni, Ed.M. vs. Doctorate program, student chats etc.) Faculty Directory by Area of Expertise Admission Stats Fall 2021 acceptance rate 36% (2723 Applied, 969 Accepted, 717 Enrolled | source: Peterson's - assume this is F21 given the record number of apps but could be wrong) (NOTE: The haven't added the Fall 2022 data when I posted this) GC applicant admission data from 2013-2022 (huge thanks to @graciasadios and @mjsmith for compiling) Student body breakdown (2021-2022 entering class data) HGSE Publications Ed.
