TheMonkeyOnMyBack Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 @jlt646 did you hear from UPenn yesterday or the day before? Fingers crossed you get an HGSE email soon.!

Thanks- you too! Nothing from Penn, either. Trying to keep myself distracted with bad reality TV and the blizzard, but of course I'm refreshing e-mails every five minutes.
graciasadios Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I thought y'all would be interested in looking at doctoral candidates graduating from HGSE in 2014 and 2015. Both of these lists are for the discontinued Ed.D. program, but the dissertation topics are still relevant for Ph.D. or Ed.L.D. applicants. It seems like a majority of their doctoral candidates first completed a M.Ed. at HGSE.

It seems like a majority of their doctoral candidates first completed a M.Ed. at HGSE. Wow, that's not just a majority, that's literally everyone except for 2 of the 25 doctoral candidates already holds an EdM from HGSE. That's kind of a shocking statistic.
graciasadios Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Yeah, I looked around to see if doctoral students can get a M.Ed. en route to the doctorate. I didn't find anything about that, so I assume that all of those came from one of HGSE's terminal M.Ed. programs. It makes sense since there are so many master's degree candidates and HGSE is already familiar with them.
GenericGuy Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 When they switched to the PhD from the EdD they changed the admission practices. Two years ago I spoke with admissions and they had 600 applicants for the PhD, interviewed 50, accepted 25. Of the pool of 600 there were 30 people with a Harvard Ed.M, of which they accepted 3. geeraf 1
dear_valentine07 Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 are there decisions coming out today? I've seen some ones come through on the results page.
wannabephd89 Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Hello, all! I applied to the Ph.D. program at HGSE this year (HDLT concentration), and I just got an interview offer via email! Super nervous and excited at the same time. They said the interview will take about 15-20 minutes, which feels short... and I don't know if the brevity signals anything. But oh well, I don't have an emotional room for all these suspicions. I'll just do my best. Fellow Ph.D. applicants, I am crossing my fingers for you! geeraf and mjsmith 2

morifol Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Also, any news on Financial Aid applications, anyone?
TheMonkeyOnMyBack Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 The result pages is referring to this page http://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?t=n&pp=100&o=&p=2 Where results are posted and you can search by program
edldwannabe Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Just looked at the results page. Only saw interviews or acceptances for STEM type majors. If Ed.L.D. interviews aren't until late February, it probably will be another week before they contact applicants.

I received emails to set up my financial aid portal, but I didn't get an interview email like other candidates have been talking about. Does obtaining access to the financial aid portal mean something positive perhaps???
graciasadios Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Getting access to the financial aid portal does not signify anything about your admission decision. It is still exciting though!
Vulpix Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Yeah, every applicant gets the financial aid portal, which must be completed before finding about about admissions.
KaySsaem Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Guys, I just wanted to thank you for the financial aid info. For some reason the email went to my spam folder and I had to search it out. If I hadn't seen y'all's posts, I could have missed the deadline. Thank you. Vulpix 1
morifol Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I don't see it anywhere! In none of the folders! Should I e-mail them?

Vulpix Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I know it was sent later to PhD candidates than masters candidates, including those who have not received word about an interview yet, so I'm really not sure what's going on regarding PhD and financial aid. CIShopeful 1
edldwannabe Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Have any Ed.L.D. applicants heard anything? The last thing I heard was that my application is complete. Should I have received financial aid information?
