Hi there! I applied for the DPhil Social Intervention and still haven't heard anything back yet. Would you mind sharing if you have your master degree from DSPI? From what I know is that applicants who hold their master degrees from the department might not be asked to go through the process so I am wondering what your background is... As I mentioned in the reply to @plankton890 , I do not have a master from the department and I'm not sure if the no response indicates a rejection letter or not...

No, I don't have.

Hi everyone! Just checking in to see how things are going. I have applied for a DPhil with the Department of Social Policy & Intervention on November 18 but received an email in January that my application was pushed to the Jan deadline. I finished my MSc in the same Department in 2015-16 and know my supervisors pretty well. Experiencing lots of anxiety and checking my email a lot but I don't think I can hope to hear back before March. Anyone applying to the same course/same department? 

I have applied to DPhil Social Policy by the same deadline. I have not heard anything yet. Fingers crossed!

Delay in response from them also limits my time to prepare for external scholarships, in case I am accepted.

Hello,

I have been stalking these threads for last 2-3 weeks. Thank you everyone, who has been posting updates.

I have applied to Peabody, PhD (LPO). I have not heard anything from them. No interview, nothing.

I am dreaming that they might just accept me  or at least call for interview soon.

Is this a realistic expectation? Do they usually delay it so much?

I am too scared to actually ask them.

Have I asked an extremely difficult question or the obviously stupid one?

[Univ selection for higher edu admin & joint MBA]

please reply!

Hello

I must appreciate that GradCafe has been really useful to me for many suggestions and exploring the paths.

I am on the verge of preparing my applications and hence, I seek help from all of you!

Programme I am applying to: MA/ MEd/ MS in higher education administration.

Preference to: Joint Course with MBA

What kind of help do I need?

I am not from US/UK. Hence, I need to know

• What kind of accreditation is most useful while selecting a university programme?
  • Are there any 'real' or 'close' rankings of university programmes with respect to 'placements' ?
    • If 3 programmes are very similar except for the degree- MS / MEd / MA : what is influential ?

    It would be great if, you can tell me additionally about:

    [*]Oxford, Stanford, Harvard, Michigan universities are very famous in my country. Are they really the top-class ones for placements?

    [*]How does a good US student select university for the above mentioned programme?

    I guess I've earned enough education, experience and funding opportunities. So what really matters to me is 'a good placement' probability ahead.

    Even if you have 'some' idea or can 'direct' me to some source, you're welcome!

Hey Thanks a lot...

• I also understand that this is not indeed a very high paying field.
• Still, I want to make sure I get the highest possible one.

May I please know if you provided names based on any statistical data or experience?

I could not find exact average salary on university websites.. nor did Google help

Please be specific to Higher Ed Admin, if you can.

More concrete replies, anybody?
