JackOfStyle Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 The results board is rather quiet concerning Virginia, and I think Curry looks like a nice place to be. Did anybody else apply or interview there? I'm going for PhD, but just curious about others' experiences with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucerovespertino Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I did my BA at UVa's College of Arts and Sciences and LOVED it. I applied for their EdD and am interviewing with them virtually this Friday. But I agree, I've barely seen anyone post. Hope you hear from them soon!

JackOfStyle Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Hey Lucero, good luck to you too! Always encouraging when students want to go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babycakes Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Applied for a PG-MT (Post-graduate Masters in Teaching, Secondary biology). It's a two years masters plus teacher cert. Haven't heard from them. My Praxis scores came in late (blech) so I don't know if that compromised anything. Granted, it's the most expensive program on my list (worse than Columbia!)Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likemythesis Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) I applied for Educational Psych, which is actually through Curry. I talked to my POI back in October I think, and she was really nice. Unfortunately, though I applied for the Ph.d I was deferred to the Masters, which kind of makes my decision for me, but I've still only heard good things about UVA.

PurpleCatz Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I earned my BA in English from UVA and am applying to the PGMT in Secondary English. Does anyone know how competitive this program is? Â I called the office, and they said admission offers should be out by this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleCatz Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Maybe so! So I'm guessing the people tweeting about acceptance into Curry are all undergrads? ...I hope? Still no word. Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babycakes Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Yay! I just checked and had a decision yesterday (no email!) for admission to their Post-Graduate Masters in Teaching program in Biology. Can't wait for my other decisions to roll in! *FINGERS CROSSED!*Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucerovespertino Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Thanks, @jackinstyle. Hopefully you'll get in too. Has anyone heard about funding yet? In my acceptance email it said decisions would be made my March 1, but in my interview the faculty said April 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
