I don't think any of the Ivy Leagues offering master degree programs online. I know there are hybrid, and "executive" programs. I know Penn GSE has executive graduate programs, for example. These are programs for working professionals. Johns Hopkins isn't an Ivy League, but it has a top ranked graduate school of education and several online master and a doctorate program online. What are your long-term goals? With how much these programs charge for tuition, I personally wouldn't recommend any of them for someone looking to become a classroom teacher.

Expateacher Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 I've been out of university for some time so would like to take a course to have a professor then write a reference for me for my application to Harvard GSE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are some rankings. You could probably get a letter of rec from any professor/lecturer with whom you have a good relationship, even if you don't take the course at an Ivy League. I also had been out of undergrad for some time (and went to a large public university where I only had solid relationships with a few professors, as opposed to grad students or TA's) so I got one of my letters of rec from a lecturer I had for continuing ed course I took. It may be more beneficial to take the class in person if you are looking to develop a closer relationship with the instructor. Hope that helps.

Vulpix Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 HGSE doesn't care WHO writes your letters, just that they are strong and know you personally. I don't think doing well in an online class would be the way to go with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
