Has anyone applied to Phd programs within Curry?  Seems to be radio silence from UVA.  Anxiously awaiting.  Applied to higher ed program.

I applied to the Applied Developmental Science program. I see a few have reported phone interviews on the results board - trying not to despair because they seem pretty informal and I was able to meet my POI in person prior to applying. But the lack of information is definitely unsettling.

Edited to add - from the results board, it appears that acceptances went out mid/late February last year.

I also applied to the Higher Ed PhD program. I was told I would be notified mid-February

I'm just curious about the process.  Years ago there appeared to be phone calls to admitted students, and I'm not sure what it looks like now.  It also appears that the department is undergoing changes with new faculty as well.  I'm also wondering if the later admission notification is to catch students not accepted by places like Vanderbilt or Penn.  Just thinking our loud...

Seeing lots of movement on Higher Ed at Curry on the results board (congrats to those that got good news!!) Just curious if anyone who applied to EP-ADS has heard anything beyond phone interviews a few weeks ago?

I received news that I got accepted to Virginia Ph.D. in Higher Ed at Curry 2 weeks ago. My potential advisor said that a lot of funding decisions should be made in the next week or two, so I would think that these next 2 weeks most decisions will be sent out.

Did anyone apply to the Ph.D in Instructional Technology program at Curry? Any updates?

Just logged in and found my admissions decision through the online portal, didn't get an email (or at least not yet). I'm waitlisted  -- better than an outright no, but only slightly. I hope someone takes advantage of another offer so I can sneak in!
