Unfortunately, I don't have any experience in this area specifically. My master's program did have a thesis requirement. However, I'm sure someone on this board may be able to offer some insight. I imagine when it comes to students entering MA/PhD programs they don't always have research experience and many times have not even attempted to publish anything as that's not usually a requirement in undergraduate programs. I'll keep looking out to hear similar stories. However, your practical experience is going to be very important in the application process. I encourage you to keep impeccable records of the practical experience you will have going into the application process and begin drafting ideas of how your practicums can be viewed as previous research experience. Hope that helps a bit. If not, sorry :-(.

Kick Start

I did this after my visit and got no response

Pretty sure most university's are still open -- at least here in Florida they are. However, most public schools (primary and secondary) are closed. I've reduced my email check to every three hours. In all honesty, I'm hoping to see my phone ring with a random number rather than seeing my email present with new mail. lol.

Wow! That would have been my immediate jump as well. If there is a usually quick turnaround and the director is telling you to expect news soon (and fairing you well), that is DEFINITELY a good sign! He could have simply told you to wait and see. Kind responses from program directors is usually a favorable response in my head - as opposed to the generic response they can probably give most inquiries. Can't wait to hear how this pans out and I think you should expect something soon!

Bad Habits

True, but this is the part that scares/worries me. It's a snap back into reality!
