Has anyone received an invite for the Learning Sciences Interview Day at Northwestern? I only saw one posted on the results page last Friday.

I think they have sent out all invitations for LS and CSLS. I received one for CSLS on February 1st. Since they share the same program assistant, I don't think if things could be very different. Good luck to you!

Thanks! When you received your invite, was it a mass email from the program assistant or was it more personalized?

I think it is a generalized one, and it accompanies a deadline for me to confirm. My deadline was February 7th, and the interview date is 21st/22nd. I believe the date for LS must be different, can be a week later or so (of which I have no idea).

I'm glad I found this thread. Did anyone accept the offer from UT Austin college of education? They said, they could not guarantee the funding for a ph.d. student. Is it common?

I heard another applicant from China said so.

I've been accepted to UT Austin for a PhD. They said they would be sending out funding letters in early March. Are you going to the accepted student's day on Monday? My guess is that they will go into funding more then. My advisor was able to give me some information, but no specific numbers yet. It may depend on your program though.

Thank you for sharing. I've heard the answer directly from the coordinator that they can't guarantee the funding. (Also told that my advisor will be assigned after I make a decision -enroll to UT Austin.) It'll vary according to the program as you say, but oh well. Even, student day? That's quite news to me...  I guess I wasn't an impressive applicant! Still, I should wait until early March and make a decision. Thanks a lot! ???

I'm so sorry! Here is the information I was given about the student visit day (https://education.utexas.edu/campus-visit-day) if that helps. I know the wait is hard and I'm dying to hear about funding. I know they can't guarantee it, but I do think that they fund the majority of their grad students. With how competitive the field is, they wouldn't get the candidates they want without funding. I would hold off until you get the funding letter. I've also heard that once you are on a project you are likely to stay on it until it ends or you choose to move on.

Not sure if anyone else is waiting on Wisconsin C&I - saw there was an acceptance on the results page - congrats!  I've got a visit planned early next week to another school and e-mailed Wisconsin to request an update on when to expect a decision - want to walk in to my visit knowing options to the best of my ability.  Received a reply back from Wisconsin C&I that they hope to have all Ph.D. decisions out by the end of next week.  Figured I'd share in case it would help anyone else!

Hey that was me! My POI called me and informally accepted me, then a week later I got the official acceptance.

Hi all,

I am a newbie here. Recently I applied to a local university (UOIT) here in the Greater Toronto Area for an MEd.. To my shock, my application was rejected. I am currently an adjunct professor and have an undergrad and post-grad certificate as well.

I am now expanding my search to institutions all over the world. The caveat is, I want to start as soon as possible and it must be 100% online. Ideally, a full-time 1-year program as well.

Are my expectations unreasonable? If you have any school suggestions, please let me know.

(sorry if this is in the wrong thread/sub-forum)

Hi all,

To keep myself from going through my application portals continuously, I decided to start this thread to find out more about other applicants. 

Who else is applying to international education related programs for Fall 2019? What are your backgrounds? Who have you heard from so far?

I have applied to NYU Steinhardt, Columbia TC, and MIIS. So far I've heard back from NYU and MIIS, although I haven't heard about financial aid for NYU. I graduated from college in 2015 and have since done Fulbright and Peace Corps. I haven't taken the GREs so that's why I didn't apply to Penn IEDP. 

I hope to meet some of you in the fall!

If you are targeting this year, then Europe has the application period open. Not sure of the other places. I only applied to the US, few programs such as UPenn, George Washington, Columbia, NY should have admissions open. They accept rolling applications.

Sorry I clearly meant to post this somewhere else! I'm still curious if there are any other applicants to these programs on this thread though.

I am waiting for an Ed.D. decision from TC Columbia myself. Saw some Ph.D. decisions from a similar program on the results page here on Friday, so hopefully the Ed.D decisions are also coming (very) soon. What programs are you waiting to hear from?

I am currently waiting for Johns Hopkins. I am doing my best to be patient but I will admit that the anticipation is intense lol. That is also super amazing! Columbia TC is a wonderful school and you will be super equipped!!!
