Ahh, cool. I applied for the combo: Organizational Studies + Educational Policy.

  • 3 weeks later...

For other 2016 applicants,

I called Stanford's GSE admissions office today.  They said that there is no formal interview process and we should get our admissions decisions by mid-February.

I can't decide if not having interviews makes me more or less nervous...on one hand, interviews are extremely stressful, but on the other there's no way of knowing where you stand until you get their final decision.

Good luck everyone!

Agreed, thanks for the information! Well, now I can just worry about being admitted, and not worry about the non-existent formal interview process. =)

Is that for all GSE programs or just SHIPS? 

I'm not 100% sure.  I told the person I spoke with that I had applied to the SHIPS program, so it's possible that this information only applies to that.  However, it sounded like it was for the whole GSE.

Was that for PhD interviews or for all SGSE admissions?

not sure if the "admissions meeting" was for all SGSE admissions or just the PhDs or just the SHIPS. in fact, i do not know if it was an adcom meeting with applications on the table or a general steering meeting (check ins, deadlines, etc.).

Thank you so much for sharing this!  I'm going crazy with all this waiting around!

Hey there, is anyone else on here applying for Stanford's SHIPS program for Fall 2016? 

I applied to the higher education doctoral program! It looks like we should be hearing back very soon here!

New to this thread, I'm not sure how I missed it before.  I only applied to two schools. Anyone else for policy?

Me. Goodness, I am about to offer to hold hands and be anxious together. I applied to four, but 2 rejects (one painful, post-interview) so far.

@morifol  sounds like we are in the same boat with one broken paddle.

Oh come on. :) It's not that bad. I consider myself a strong candidate. One more year will only be growing in a different way in the worst case scenario.

Last year, SHIPS sent notifications on 2/10. Heavens, take the wheel!

Yup. It's probably going to be sometime this week, if not today! I have been on edge all day. :wacko: 

(There is no nail-biting emoticon here. There should be!)
