I hope they stick to the 1st Friday!

Dear lord, me too! I'm just counting down the days and have blocked off Friday evening in case I need to celebrate or commiserate!

I remember someone saying a little while back in this thread that the School Leadership Masters is in all likelihood the most competitive program at HGSE to get into. Can any current student or alum shed light on the perceived competitiveness of the Mind, Brain and Education program? I think i'd be a good fit, but kinda down right now as I just re-read my personal statement and realized that a lot of sections could've been revised to reflect my experiences and interest specifically about children's cognition, and not just effective learning environments that I talked about a lot (which sounds too generic now).

 

I heard or read that the most competitive Med programs are Education Policy, Higher Education, International Education Policy, and Technology Innovation Education.

Current IEP student here. I don't think that's true necessarily. You just listed all the biggest programs. Presumably they have the most applicants too, but HGSE doesn't need to reject anyone they feel is qualified (there is no cap) so they let in as many students as they think are a good match. As for MBE, I really don't know, I've met maybe one person here in that program lol. It's not very big.

Longtime lurker here...I'm also getting more and more anxious as we approach the first week of March! Anybody else here that applied to HDP? I've been accepted at Peabody and UT Austin so far and am waiting on hearing from 4 other schools.

I definitely didn't get into the Ed. L., but am hoping so much for the masters. I am so nervous. I hope that we don't have to wait until March 7th. I feel so anxious. I just wish we knew.

I've been going through the HGSE threads of past cohorts and have noticed that kind-hearted folks with insider knowledge have informed those of us on tenterhooks when to expect a decision for the Ed.M. programs. Any such savior lurking in these parts this time round?

I don't know officially, but I believe it's definitely going to happen by the end of this week because we (the current students) were asked to make congratulatory/welcome phone calls to accepted students on March 7. And that happens *after* you have received your decision online. :)

Thanks for putting us at ease, Vulpix! While simultaneously making us chomp down on our nails even harder :P

Eek! So they are sticking with the first Friday. I wasn't expecting it so early, which I guess is good since I only have two days to worry! Good luck everyone!!!

Current HGSE student here. Just wanted to confirm that we are being recruited for a phonathon to congratulate accepted students on March 7th @ 5:30 pm. I think it's safe to say that y'all can expect admission decisions before then! :)

Thanks for confirming this!

Last year the call from students to those admitted were on Wed, correct? So, maybe we should expect a decision tomorrow?
