MGH GRE score sent late!!!!!

[Emehteg1]

So, I am a second time applicant. When I began my applications last year, I chose to recycle my previous information because nothing much had changed. I was under the assumption that my GRE scores would be visible to every school I applied to. My transcripts are, so I figured the gre scores would be the same. When I submitted all 7 of my applications I was snooping around the CSDCAS website. I came across the GRE section stating, GRE scores must be sent to CSDCAS using all schools code in order for them to be seen. MY HEART BEGAN TO RACE!!! I submitted all of my applications January 1st, and my MGH application was due that same day. My GRE scores were verified on CSDCAS January 3rd. I sent an email to admissions hoping that they can look past my humiliating oversight. MGH is an amazing program and has a huge focus on DIVERSE students. Being a Hard of Hearing Mexican Jew who speaks 3 languages I feel like I am meant for this program.

Does anyone know if this will ruin my chances of getting accepted?  Has this happened to anyone else? UGH!

Hey @Emehteg1! We're on vacation right now, so no guarantees that someone will answer, but please call tomorrow. I honestly think you should be fine, but it's worth it to double check. 

Best person to contact is Rachel Harshaw- she's basically in charge of everything CSD admissions. I'm putting her email in here too.

Thank you so much for your help! I will definitely call tomorrow. 

My mother is a principal at an elementary school and her SLP graduated from MGH IHP last year and she has helped me so much. How are you enjoying the program so far? How are the professors?

I love it! I honestly can't speak highly enough about the faculty whom I had last semester for my courses. One of the benefits of going to a school where most if not all of the faculty are still in the field is one minute you're discussing theory and the next minute you're hearing stories about how they integrated those aspects into their practices. (Plus some of the stories are often hilarious so they will stick with you!) And the fact that they are experts in their specialties... that's pretty incredible, especially if you end up doing research with them. I was following the work of a professor long before I looked into grad schools, and now I get to have her as my professor- I'm still kind of starstruck, lol. Also I love having a dyad in the clinic for the first year, honestly it was so comforting to me when we first started sessions and now that a new semester is starting, I will be taking lead on the client who she had fall semester and vice versa, so I'll be able to see the progress both clients make throughout the course of the year directly.

So having a huge class of 60 does not make a huge impact on how teachers interact with their students? 

That sounds incredible! I am so excited to work with clients. I work as a BI and I am definitely a more hands on person. 

WOW, that is such a great experience. Watching your client progress right from the start!
