Got an email from UT Austin today, was admitted to the Ph.D. program in Educational Psychology department with the concentration in Quantitative Methods. Will receive official letter soon, no word on funding yet.

Phoenix Rising, same story but UCLA was my 7th choice in the list and I am in at 4 other which are upper on the list , so who cares , but it is a good school with one of the best urban campuses I have ever seen.

just received an email from Columbia TC to check my status, I am admitted to the PhD program in Human Development, Measurement and Evaluation. No work on funding.

once you are admitted they will send a letter with the fellowship info, sometimes they send a fellowship letter separately from the acceptance letter. UT Austin has a really good School of Education. Good luck on you application.

This week might be the week they are planning to notify of the decisions. Do you have any info about funding there?

Hey Apl, haven't heard anything yet, what program did you apply to?

Thanks mlamar, I have sent you a private message asking about some details you might share.

hi rhonechica, If possible, I think you should wait until you get an official decision from HGSE in order not to regret. You might need to learn by what date you should respond to the offer from BC and plan appropriately. What program in BC are you in? I was also admitted to BC and other two programs but I am waiting to get decisions from all of them (including HGSE) and then come up with my final decision. Best

Thanks t_ruth Yep, ups overnight made my day

i am seriously considering going there, right now thinking btw Cal and Penn, waiting info on funding from CAL.

Just got a package from the Penn GSE, they said I am in. Happy. Anyone else got news from there?

one of the grad student who is there heard from them in the middle of march.

I hate New York, especially if you are driving, parking tickets, traffic, etc.. San Diego would be my top, weather is great, you can drive to LA or Tijuana. But public transportation is not as good as NY's, you will need a car. Chicago is great but weather is horrible, Seattle is great too.

I got an impression that I am among the first rejects , yep, it is me, meet magiclogic Hope you guys are admitted, but if not, don't worry, I am with you.

Last year the number of entering Master's students to Penn GSE was 371, that is what it says on their webpage. http://www.gse.upenn.edu/node/117

OK guys, I think we have to keep ourselves a bit busy in this (Education) forum otherwise I have already finished reading (and learned a lot) about political science and engineering applicants So, lets discuss something. How about "Why are we studying the science of Education?" There are many other compelling problems in other fields too, but somehow we ended up education, right? About me, I have a degree in management and MBA, started cool career in banking and consulting, but found soooo boring, of course there are many other reasons. Why are you guys are in education?

Anyone applied for the PhD in educational measurement or educational statistics concentrations? where? That is where I have applied at SUSE, HGSE, Penn, Teachers, BC, Berkeley, UTAustin and UCLA. Just trying to get some numbers (applicants) for that field. Usually it is within Educational Psychology (like SUSE) or within Quantitative Measurement and Evaluation (like most). Also I wonder what concentration within Education is the most competitive one?

Hey everybody, still silence . anyone applied to Boston College? Any decisions? Also, any news from UCLA?

ed09, your stats and background look really good, especially the gre verbal score is great considering the fact that you are an international student. I think you have pretty good chances, given the number of schools you have applied. Good luck.

which of those universities were you invited to? do your homework about the program before you go, prepare questions.

Hi Polkadot, don't worry, you are at the right place, you are good the only EdD program I have applied is HGSE. No news yet. What programs did you apply?

IvyHope, I have applied to hgse, stanford ed, teachers, upenn, boston college, utaustin and ucla i am happy with ucb, stanford and hgse are really hard to get in as far as i know.

congrats!

thanks friends, i wish you the same feeling soon

just got news from Berkeley, they said I am in, best day of my life, going to buy lots of pizza for my students afterschool
