Phoenix Rising Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Hey everybody, still silence . anyone applied to Boston College? Any decisions? Also, any news from UCLA? According to UCLA's website, staus won't be updated until "late February".
ejkim3 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 For UCLA, I wonder when late Feb is.. i'm guessing next week?
Hevan24 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Thanks for posting your program Hevan24! I've been a nervous wreck since I saw results so early. hehe Your welcome and good luck! I also think your username is awesome.
Inspekt Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I applied to UCLA for the PhD in HEOC. I was admitted by phone in late January. The website has still not updated the status to reflect this, even though I have received the letter by email. Still waiting on Harvard, Stanford and Penn GSE....
t_ruth Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 I guess Stanford will send letters to rejects between 2/25 and 3/6. Hevan, is there a lot of overlap between your program and general Ed. Psych there? What prof(s) did you apply to work with (PM if you can and don't wan to share on thread)? Did you get the impression you were among the first admits, the last or somewhere in between? Thanks for sharing!
magiclogic Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I got an impression that I am among the first rejects , yep, it is me, meet magiclogic Hope you guys are admitted, but if not, don't worry, I am with you.
Phoenix Rising Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 For UCLA, I wonder when late Feb is.. i'm guessing next week? Thats my thinking as well. And that seems to coincide with the time they began mailing decisions last year according to the results page.
jesbriwel Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 TeeDub/ MonaMour- I'm also applying to the MBE program- and have been doing all my applying and research from a third world country, which has been a difficult process. I have NO frame of reference for how many people apply to the program, how many they admit, what kind of people they admit...etc. ANY info you can share would be wonderful!!
TeeDub Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Hi jesbriwel - I'm not sure how many people apply to the MBE program, but I know they admitted around 35 my year, and I believe we ultimately had 32 in the cohort. We tend to be one of the smaller masters cohorts at HGSE, which is great because you get to know everyone well. They don't admit a specific "type" of person to the program - they look for people who can bring a unique voice/viewpoint to the group. I think I found out around March 15th (via email) when I was admitted, so you probably have a few weeks before you hear anything, but good luck! I really enjoyed the MBE program and my experience at HGSE.
t_ruth Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 Is there a new Ed Psych person on the results board? The one who posted the acceptance for U of Washington? Are you going to the admitted student's weekend?
ravinraven718 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I applied to four programs and I had only completed one (William and Mary, which had a Jan. 15th deadline). I was still in the process of getting all my letters and transcripts to the other schools when I got my acceptance letter. I'll be starting my M.A. Ed. in Social Studies Education in June!
imokyoureadrone Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Hey RavinRaven, saw you over on LJ too, I think, in whogotin. Congrats on making it into your top choice!
gradschooljess Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Hey all: I noticed someone posted an acceptance to the PhD education program at UCLA. Has anyone else heard anything? To the person who posted their UCLA acceptance: what is your emphasis? Thanks!
Pielet Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Hi Gradschooljess, I got in for the PhD in Advanced Quantitative Methods. I received an email on 01/27 and a phone call last week. Hope you get some good news soon!
choco80 Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I got rejected to Harvard Ed.D. program - I posted more info on the Harvard topic about this. Best of luck to everyone still waiting.
baileysamson Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Hi everyone! I just signed up today and am so glad to have found you all! I applied to 7 programs and have heard back from 4 so far. My area is Ed Policy. UCLA--accepted to Urban Schooling, letter received Feb. 21 University of Colorado at Boulder: accepted via email Feb. 25 University of Washington: got a phone call a couple of weeks ago, official email came today UT Austin: accepted March 6 (found out via application status on website) Still waiting on: Stanford Berkeley ASU
Reinventing Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Applying to two state schools. Just wondering, is anyone getting TA/RA offers with their acceptance letter? My acceptances haven't made any offers of funding, so far--still waiting for a formal letter from one of the schools, though.
t_ruth Posted March 11, 2009 Author Posted March 11, 2009 Applying to two state schools. Just wondering, is anyone getting TA/RA offers with their acceptance letter? My acceptances haven't made any offers of funding, so far--still waiting for a formal letter from one of the schools, though. I've received acceptances from four state schools. At one, I'd be a member of a certain fellowship w/great funding, at another I received a two year TAship (possibly will be extended to three) and I'm still waiting on the other two. At one of these remaining two, I was told info would come this month and at the other, I know I'm up for some university-wide fellowships and the Ed. people are waiting on word on those before deciding on their own funding. Still waiting on three schools (two state and one private).
Reinventing Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Wow, those are fantastic results--congrats! My schools have experienced some shifts in their budget over the last 3 months, so hopefully the delay is more related to that than their enthusiasm for me. But even if it is the latter, better to know sooner than later. :>
westcoasteducation Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 Hi all, Has anyone heard anything from a Columbia Ed.D program? I received an email about a month ago telling me that they were taking additional time to consider applicants - just wondering if anyone finds themself in a similar situation?
90sNickelodeon Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I'm applying for a Masters in Higher Ed from several of the top ranking schools. We'll see what happens!
nycrican2 Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I'm applying for a Masters in Higher Ed from several of the top ranking schools. We'll see what happens! I am applying to an Ed.D program in Higher Education Administration. Hope to hear something soon.
