Cheeseman Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Has anyone heard anything from Boston U. They mentioned that interviews would be requested late January, but I haven't seen any record of anyone getting them. Are they just delayed? Or am I SOL bc I haven't been invited to one? Many thanks and good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilyKitty Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Hi Cheeseman, I also applied to BU PhD in education but my program is language and literacy education, different from yours. I have yet to hear back from them either, but the graduate office writes in their email that "PhD applications are under review but will wrap up in the next few weeks" without mentioning interviews. Not sure if all programs in BU Wheelock will have interviews or if the reply I received can be applied to other programs. Hope it can help a bit, tho.

Optimismforthewin Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Hello! I was invited to interview back at the end of January, and I believe they interview for all of PhD in educational studies as one cohort- interviewed a total of 25 people (I interviewed in special education), and accepting less than 10 students for the whole PhD in educational studies. Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you can receive an acceptance in other place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My POI emailed me that they received many applications this year and the program is too small. They have to match applicants to multiple faculty. I hope you can get acceptance from another school you like too!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
