If you look at the results page, the one person who posted that was admitted last year indicates an interview in late January and a decision by early February.  It seems that early February is when applicants are notified of their status.  Also, I participated in a webinar and the faculty member mentioned a similar timeline.

 

Best of luck!

Hi, guys! Anyone of you applied in the combined program in education and psychology? Saw one post on the results search about an email from the secretary. Anyone else got any emails? Thanks!

For those who have already interviewed with University of Michigan, can you share your experience (what types of questions did you get, was it with a panel vs. just one professor, how long did it last...)? I have an interview scheduled next week (applied to the Higher Ed PhD program).

Hi,

 

what track did you apply for? I applied for the public policy track in higher ed and have heard nothing! Am pretty bummed out if I don't get in, it's my top choice. Best of luck with the interview!

I heard back this morning about an interview. The (brief) interview will be this week.  I applied to the Higher Education PhD program, Research, Evaluation, and Assessment concentration.

 

Since I was just notified this morning and someone else heard last week, it seems that invites for interviews are going out at different times.  It is possible that they haven't made it to all the concentrations yet.

That sounds encouraging. Thanks.

 

As for me, I also did not hear from them. 

 

Applied for the Ph.D. in Educational Studies with a Concentration in Mathematics education.

Hi, I just had my skype interview with the Director of CSHPE today. It was really casual and he told me it was not evaulative. It only lasted about 30 min. and I was basically asked why I wanted to pursue my PhD now, what I want to do when I'm finished, and research interests. Good luck!

I did my interview yesterday. HigherEdkmg is pretty much right - no "gotcha" type questions, just a conversation of essentially what should be in the SOP. Good luck all!

I also did my interview yesterday and had a similar experience.  Anyone get an idea of when we would be notified of a decision?

I was told the committee was meeting today and I would likely hear within the week! Fingers crossed!

Educational Studies department is still reviewing applications. The admission office says to give it a few weeks. Until then, how does it go: "breathe in, breathe out"? Or is it the other way around - I've forgotten!  :)

So we still have a chance... good news, thanks!

My interviewer was a bit more vague, but the admitted student visit weekend is in early March, and so she thought in a week or two at the latest.

Posted

I heard back via phone call! Very excited. Anyone else planning to attend the visit weekend on 3/21?

I wasn't... It's a pity... My first rejection.

Sigh. I didn't get an accept or a reject from Ed Studies yet. Looks like I'm hanging in the balance . . . today at least.

Same here, jackinstyle. Imapplied in CPEP- havent heard from them at all- whether reject or not- while some have. What do you think it means? Waitlist, hopefully?
