libbyt Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Hello! While I'm sure most of all of you are waiting on admissions letters for Fall of 2017, I've recently applied for Fall of 2018 to the Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education Ph.D. program. Do you think applying this early will help my chances? Also, with rolling admissions, do you think I'll hear back in the 4-8 weeks or later? I've been nervously sitting here for the last two weeks wondering and waiting.Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have applied for fall of 2018 then I don't believe that your application will be reviewed until at least the current round of PhD applications is over (which is still isn't as the interview weekends haven't happened yet). I also could be wrong, but I am fairly sure that UPenn won't make any offers more than a year and a half early, for PhD programmes. To be honest, I am pretty surprised the application for 2018 is even open. I think, however, that you are best off calling the admissions office and speaking to them.

libbyt Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 Originally, I wanted to apply for FALL 2017 (like my other apps), but that wasn't available when I went to apply to Penn. Anyway, I went ahead and contacted them. I'm waiting to hear back. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applying so early makes you super organised and that can only be a good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
