HigherLearning Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Eventful 24 hours on my end. 1) Denied by Penn. I wasn't invited to interview, so I knew it was coming. 2) Admitted to HGSE (Ed.D. - Higher Ed). Totally unexpected. Received news via phone call. 3) Emailed Penn State to decline their offer. Good luck, everyone! Congrats to the recent Stanford admits! Amazing wayoutwest128! You've had quite a run. Congratulations!
Revo Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Congrats!!! OMG!!!!! How did you find out??? *Just saw that you got admitted via phone. Did your status change online? I'm not sure if my online status changed, since I never figured out where to easily find it for Stanford. My ApplyWeb account just lists the application as being received and processed.

wayoutwest128 Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 @HigherLearning, thanks! @Peanutlion, once you receive an email, I believe you log in as usual and scroll down to the bottom of the screen. Below "Decision Status," you should see a link that reads "Your application decision is now available online."
PhDreams Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 It's not over yet. It's only 3:20 over there. It's now 5. Ugh...well, there goes that.

Sending mucho positivity your way Best advice I've heard all day!

Metapod Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Revo and Airwick, were you both notified by phone?
Revo Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Revo and Airwick, were you both notified by phone? I was. To my knowledge, nothing in my online application has changed in terms of status.
MPCantab Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Haven't heard anything from SUSE or HGSE and no change in application status. I though Stanford sent out decision after March 15. Remember reading it somewhere. and HGSE after 26th March.
firebird24 Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Rejected from HGSE Woke up when my phone received a new email notification at 3 AM my time (about 14 hours ago). So crept out of bed, go tot my computer, and checked my status. Not a great start to a weekend. Oh well. I didn't expect any different anyway. Also, thanfully, it wasn't my first choice Congratulations to everyone on their Stanford, Harvard, and UCLA admits! And good luck to everyone else. Everything that happens happens for a reason

Remember reading it somewhere. and HGSE after 26th March. Acceptance dates for the HGSE masters programs from previous years: Tuesday March 8, 2011 Tuesday March 9, 2010 Friday March 13, 2009 Friday March 14, 2008 If I was a betting man, I would put money on hearing back Tuesday, March 6th.

firebird24 Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Got rejected from Northwestern as well; it was my top choice.
wildviolet Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Got rejected from Northwestern as well; it was my top choice. Sorry to hear that. Chin up. "Everything that happens happens for a reason." I am such a believer in this. I hope everything works out for you.
PhDreams Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Got rejected from Northwestern as well; it was my top choice. We're rooting for you! It's still not over yet.
MPCantab Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Congratulations to all who got accepted. I haven't received any call from Stanford. Is it possible that they would call US applicants first and then international applicants?
litjust Posted February 25, 2012 Author Posted February 25, 2012 Accepted! Stanford LDT! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Congrats, Airwick!! I'm excited for you Firebird, I'm sure your remaining choices will work out! I hope you find something else to brighten your spirits this weekend.
