Hey all! I just submitted my application to UC Berkeley, but HGSE is my first choice so I'm excited to find this forum. I liked the introduction format from last years thread, so here's mine:
Program/Concentration: M.Ed in LDIT, concentration in Arts and Learning
GRE: N/A
Work experience: About 4 years. I worked throughout undergrad for youth development nonprofits, and I have been program coordinator for an arts education org these past two years after graduation
Undergrad: BS in Psychology
Undergrad GPA: 3.7
Research: None
LORs: 1 from a writing professor I was close with, 1 from my Learning and Motivation professor I'm not really close to, and one from my current supervisor who loves me
Other info: I did my undergrad in Boston and lived there for 5 years if anyone has questions about the city. I'm also apply to UC Berkeley, Northwestern, UPenn, and University College London if anyone wants to discuss those programs.
Good luck to everyone! I'm so nervous and excited for March!
