PsychGirl1 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 So I still haven't heard from the 4 Masters programs I've applied to (Drexel, Villanova, BC, BU). Has anyone else heard a decision (or invited to an interview) from any of the Masters programs they applied to?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavenes Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I have. Two acceptances and one interview invite out of the 5 masters programs I applied to. I've actually been surprised with how fast they made decisions after the deadlines. Much faster than the doctorate programs I applied to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were they still Jan 1st? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavenes Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Of the schools I heard from, one was Jan. 15 and the other two were Feb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bm099433 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I applied to 4 master's programs in I/O Psych and have only heard from 1, an acceptance e-mail from University of Tulsa. There are 3 others that I have yet to hear from and it is driving me crazy... George Mason - deadline Feb. 1st U of Oklahoma - deadline Jan. 1st Clemson - deadline Jan. 15th I'm happy that I haven't received rejection notifications as of yet, but I would almost rather receive a rejection then be hung out to dry like this! Not really, but everyday is a battle. Good luck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, but everyday is a battle. Good luck... It's the worst, isn't it! 3 of my deadlines were March 1st, 1was Feb 1st. I got in all my paperwork by Feb 1st, but they're so slow to process that they've only been complete apps for a week or two. So I know it's too early to be stressed out, but I hate waiting more than anything in the world. I've also been trying to come up with some plan bs in case I don't get into the programs I want, so that's been tough to think about as well :-). Good luck to you on your other 3 decisions! Congrats on your acceptance to Tulsa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

school psych girl Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 So I still haven't heard from the 4 Masters programs I've applied to (Drexel, Villanova, BC, BU). Has anyone else heard a decision (or invited to an interview) from any of the Masters programs they applied to?? Out of the 8 Masters Programs I applied to (for School Psychology) I have had 3 interviews. I hate this waiting game! I got interviews to Fordham, Touro, and Seton Hall.

nisf Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I have received an offer from Claremont, a phone interview with Wake Forest, and I'm still waiting to hear from BC, William & Mary, and Villanova. I am also thinking that Villanova's might be later than others considering they have such a late deadline date (March 1)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also thinking that Villanova's might be later than others considering they have such a late deadline date (March 1)? Congrats on Claremont & Wake Forest! Villanova is rolling, so I think they do give (and have given) some acceptances along the way but make all financial decisions mid-March. BC was February 1st and I haven't heard from them either (I was nervous about that, so I'm glad you haven't either! They are slow.). BU and Drexel were also March 1st, but I've already heard back from Drexel about their interview day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megankathleen08 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hi! I was accepted to William & Mary last week. I also applied to Wake Forest, but haven't heard from them. Good luck to everyone! psycspy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psycspy Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I just heard from American university, they sent an email saying I was accepted (unexpected because I did not have an interview). I am still waiting on CSULB, Wake, and W&M... haven't heard anything from these schools yet either. Is it typical to be accepted to a MA program without an interview? Also... my American acceptance email didn't mention funding. Does this mean I'm not getting any...? I know that a lot of MA programs are unfunded, but I really don't think getting myself into $100k of debt for a MA degree is a good idea....

So I'd visit the website for each program (or contact them) and ask about interviews. You should be able to find out if American does funding for Masters students on their website.

nisf Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Update: got waitlisted for WFU and W&M, and after inspection of my Claremont letter realized I received a small scholarship but no funding, which barely makes a dent in the $24000 a semester tuition, yikes. Still waiting on BC and Villanova, and I applied to the psychology master's program at University of North Florida as well, which isn't really funded but at least I am eligible for in-state tuition.

amyb Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I got accepted to NYU Steinhardt Human Development and Social Intervention and Tufts Child Development (both Masters) but I can't make a decision. please HELP!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychGirl1 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 I got rejected from BC today :-(. Boo! I thought I had a good chance because I went to a strong undergrad institution (MIT), did relatively well on my GREs (800 quant, 5.5 writing, 620 verbal) and have a pretty unique background (worked in the corporate world as an analyst, now in research doing coordinator/data work). And it's a Masters program, geesh! Not even a PhD :-). But I'm okay with it, because to be honest, their research interests didn't match mine too well (not that they knew that, hopefully) and I know I'll have a good number of other options. Good luck to everyone else applying! People who get in must be superstars! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leica818 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Hey everyone, I didn't read all the posts, but just skimmed. In response to the original poster, I heard back from BC yesterday. They sent me a thin envelope in the mail... Not sure if it's BU or BC, but one of them doesn't give decisions through phone or email, so applicants have to wait via snail mail. What year are we in? In response to those asking about Wake Forest, I've heard back from them already as well; Last Wednesday, to be exact. Best of luck to everyone!

BCbound Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I was accepted into the Master's program for Developmental/Educational Psych at BC in February. Good luck!
