TexanLex Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Accepted to the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor today for Master's in Higher Education! Super excited! The turnaround on decisions is quicker than I anticipated any to be. This is the second school I've heard back from, but was not expecting to hear from anyone until mid-February/March. Nonetheless, this is great and welcomed news!
captainwombat27 Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) Applied to Stanford (LDT), Harvard (TIE), UPenn (LST) and Columbia (CCTE)--just heard from Columbia last night that I was accepted! Edited February 8, 2012 by captainwombat27
wannabeaphd Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Thanks all! And congrats captainwombat27! Lookslike things are happening... No word from UCLA though...
TexanLex Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Thanks everyone! And congrats captainwombat27, that's excellent!
keepswimming Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Congrats to all on your acceptances! Very happy for everyone Wannabeaphd, which program at UCLA did you apply to? I don't think they've finalized their decisions yet...
keepswimming Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Also, has anyone heard from SUSE or HGSE??
wannabeaphd Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 @keepswimming -- I applied to the SRM, social research methodology program there... in their GSE
ceek Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) keepswimming, I'm waiting for SUSE. It seems like people started hearing around this time last year. Edited February 9, 2012 by ceek
PhDreams Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Congrats TexanLex and captainwombat27!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!
wildviolet Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 keepswimming, I'm waiting for SUSE. It seems like people started hearing around this time last year. Me, too! By my calculations, the end of this week! Did you get to chat with a professor?
wildviolet Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 My calculations were slightly off. Just got the email this evening... wait listed at SUSE. The email reads: "Your application for admission has been reviewed by the School of Education. Although the admissions committee was not able to recommend you for admission at this time, I am pleased to tell you that your name is on a short list of alternates for the doctoral program in XXX Education. The committee faced the difficult task of selecting a small number of new students from a large and highly qualified group of applicants. In naming you as an alternate, the committee recognized your own excellent qualifications. Applicants who have received offers in the first round have been asked to let us know their decision as soon as possible and no later than April 15, 2012. We will get in touch with you as soon as possible after that date with our final decision. You also may wish to contact us before deciding on another offer."
hitomimay Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Congrats wildviolet for making the short list! Since I haven't heard, I think I'll take this one as a rejection. Bummed out, but oh well. Congrats again!
keepswimming Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 congrats wildviolet!! hopefully you will make it off the waitlist (assuming it's your top choice). i haven't heard back either hitomimay, so i'm assuming i'm out too! it's not my first choice, so i'm not bummed. nonetheless, rejection always stings!
