By the way, do you think attending webinars and registering in advance will help your case?

Awesome, thank you. tbh, I feel like if I were in the admissions committee, I would also be curious why this person wants a third master's, but I guess that's what the SOP is for. GPA for the two master's was meh. Approx. 3.3 - 3.4 each.

Thank you so much for the positivity and the encouragement! I think that I can provide some pretty convincing reasons for the three Why's. Good luck to you! Let's stay in touch - even though I'm applying next cycle!

Thank you! I want to apply to the online program. I also contacted them, and based on what they said, I think I will wait until next year before applying so that I can accumulate one more year of full-time experience. Any thoughts on what I can do to improve my profile? https://forum.thegradcafe.com/topic/166424-do-i-have-a-chancehow-can-i-prepare/

I'm interested in applying, but not sure if I have a shot. Hoping to stay in touch here!

I am interested in HGSE's new Online Master's in Leadership program. However, information available is very sparse. According to Pearson's, HGSE has a 54% acceptance rate for its master's programs. Is this true? That sounds way too high! If I have GRE verbal score of 165, quantitative score of 160, and writing score of 10.0, is that high enough for me to be competitive? I worked for four years as an English teacher through Japan's JET Programme, before relocating to an international school in China. Thus, I will only have six years of experience. Will I be at a severe disadvantage? Should I wait until next year before applying? I have a BA from an Ivy League university (3.1 GPA) in History, an MA from a local state university, another MA from another local state university (if you're wondering why I have two MAs, I tried to switch fields) - given all these degrees, would HGSE find it strange that I want another degree? Affordability isn't an issue for me - I saved up enough for this program, plus since it's online, I can work part time, though any scholarship would still be highly appreciated. My goal is to take on an intermediate leadership role in either my current international school or another. I still want to be in the classroom, but perhaps only one or two sections a term - and the rest on administration. How can I improve my profile? Am I crazy for even thinking about getting a third master's?
