FreedomInEducation Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Just got in from my admitted student reception! Walking on cloud nine...even more excited now! (If that's even possible!) Damn it, mine was on Thursday and I didn't have access to the prematriculation website until yesterday :-(
EdYouKateOr Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 It was very small. Only 10 students attended, not all committed. We had Alumni Ambassadors (no one from the school) so it was merely asking intros and questions about the experience! Bottom line, worth it to get my HGSE pen and confirm my desire to go...now to start my fund raising campaign! FreedomInEducation 1

CQE Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) Harvard's run is coming to an end ... http://scores.espn.go.com/ncb/boxscore?gameId=330820012 This year, anyway. I can't wait to see this team in two years, though. Chambers will be a junior, Missi will be a senior, and Saunders will be a senior. On top of that, you got current freshman like Okolie and Cummins who are going to grow, mentally and physically. Additionally, Harvard already has two three-star big men that have signed for this year's class. Lastly, we cannot undervalue the experience that this year's team has gained by winning the Ivy League and an NCAA Tournament game. Harvard's run is really just beginning. It's going to be fun!

Fleet23 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Well merit fellowship decisions are out, and I did not receive one (not surprised), so I think that seals the deal for me. TC was my #1 all along, and offered me a decent scholarship. It's a weird feeling to think of turning down Harvard though. FreedomInEducation 1

I will check it out as I can't join yet, but I will as soon as I tell my school community. Many of my teachers, parents, and fellow principals are on FB. Right now only my Supt. knows, don't want to upset everything before testing! I am going to go to Open House (5-6) now, so I look forward to meeting many of you there!

Seeing as I did not get any emails from HGSE today, I'm guessing I did not receive one either? ._. oh well.

ASzofer Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Wow I left the country for a few days and missed quite a bit! Had my admitted students reception in Chicago Thursday and it was great. As far as the people talking about it not being worth the money, I feel like very few people go into ed for monetary value. It's worth the money to get the best education you can to go on to make the biggest difference. At least that's how I feel. It's one year. Not like three years of law school or even more for med with way more debt. Anyway, the people I talked to at admitted students weekend all had great jobs and said everyone in my program was gainfully employed by the end of summer so that was encouraging. I never anticipate making bank, but we should be able to pay off some loans. In other news, I did not get a merit scholarship (not surprising). I just got back from the Dominican and am not psyched about the LAN of late march snow right now.

Sunshinegrl456 Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Huuuhmmmmm....I wonder why they don't come up on search....that sort of limits this to grad cafe only people :/ I'll look into it, thanks for letting me know EdYouKateOr! (anyone that knows more about fb groups than me have any thoughts?? :/ )
EdYouKateOr Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 is anyone still looking for a roommate for Open House?

askamy Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Request sent to join the FB group HGSE 2013-2014.. also, does anyone know if there are any Linkedin groups too ?
HigherEd2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Didn't get the merit scholarship either . I'm having a fantastic time at Penn's preview weekend. At this point, Harvard really needs to step it up.
askamy Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Interesting study...Harvard at No.2 http://finance.yahoo.com/news/20-brainiest-colleges-america-164400109.html EdYouKateOr 1
M15 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Arghh. I can't join the facebook group. Most people at my workplace don't know yet that I'm leaving and facebook broadcasts group posts to everyone Is there a way to change settings to make posts private?
