Hello everyone! I'm new here. I have a quick question. I applied to the EdLD with a referral to the EPM program. I just got my admissions decision letter (rejected) for the EdLD program. However, should I assume that I was also rejected from the EPM program? 

 

Thank you!

Got into TIE! 

And I’m also having the unauthorized access error. I haven’t officially accepted yet, so that might be the problem. 

I don't think you have to accept in order to set up your key, because even the link to the "Admitted Student Events" is not working at the moment. Probably just a glitch that will be resolved at some point soon.

Admitted to Higher Ed! And yes, I can't seem to access anything either. Glad I'm not the only one. For a second I was thinking "Jeez I can't even figure out how to get onto the website...are they sure I'm Harvard material lol?"

Same here. But did you see a general rejection letter or otherwise? Thanks

Thank you!

I was invited to interview for EdLD but not accepted, sadly. I was accepted to the EPM. The "update to your application status" included information about both:

"Thank you for your participation in the Ed.L.D. interview process at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. We greatly appreciated the opportunity to meet you and get to know more about you. This year, we have identified many more qualified and promising candidates than we are able to admit and it is with regret that I inform you that you have not been offered admission to the Doctor of Education Leadership program. At the same time, I am pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to the Master of Education program in Education Policy and Management to pursue full-time study for the 2018-2019 academic year. Congratulations!"

Age: 29

Undergraduate GPA: 3.93

GRE: 160 V, 165 Q, 4.0 AW

Professional Background: Seven years of teaching in an urban setting including one year in a hybrid teacher-admin role; significant experience leading groups of teachers and school leaders through committees, professional organizations, etc.

Most likely--haven't decided yet. I wonder how many EPM students are accepted into EdLD each year.
