Graduate School Admission Results

(2a/0w/1r)/9

This is my first acceptance and I cried tears of joy! However, I need to make a decision by March 15th with a non-refundable $1000 deposit and have not yet heard back from the other two schools I applied to. This is the highest rated program I applied to, but also the most expensive program by quite a bit, and I have to be considerate of my family needs when making this decision. Fingers crossed that the other schools send out decisions soon! For those who may be wondering, I had strong GPA in my last two years, with a rocky past (was re-admitted via fresh start 8 years after starting my bachelor's degree.) I repeated some key courses and boosted my grades. I took two graduate level courses as an undergraduate and earned an A in each. I participated in independent studies for additional experience, and worked part-time jobs in related fields (ABA, substitute paraprofessional.) I have worked for the past two and a half years as a SLPA. I spent a lot of time on my essays and obtained strong letters of recommendation. It can be done! I was wait listed, but not accepted to any programs during my first application round. Don't give up on your dream! Best of luck to those still waiting!

STRONG letter of rec. Like, the best, most amazing letter of rec you have ever seen. A real bute.

Unofficial email from a POI, no info on funding offer yet.

To poster below: thanks for the response. I am waiting for CME. Yeah, expecting rejection

If someone with near perfect scores, 4.0s in both undergrad and grad, and 3 publications couldn't get in to any of the 15 programs they applied to, the system is rigged.

International Student

after several months of waiting and follow up email, got a standard rejection letter dated early March! "We are a relatively small School of Education and we are unabl to accommodate all of the candidates for each degree program area..." absolutely not recommended to apply to WM! it does not deserve energy, resources and TIME! I considered it as a backup unknown school, but it looks like it has no space to accommodate! Got accepted elsewhere to my top choice university with full funding - tuition, GA, healthcare etc!

undergrad from DCE. Part of a successful startup.

Too expensive, probably will not attend

No funding, so going to have to pass on Wagner.

To the poster below: I am one of the previous posters. I interviewed with them in late January but did not post the interview info back then. From what I heard of, all admitted students receive interviews and the acceptance rate given an interview is roughly 50%.

The deadline is this coming week. But some people are waiting for other universities and so there are likely some extensions.

2nd update, 1st AD! Really happy right now. Official mail will be in 1 or 2 weeks. I had finalized my application on December 25th.
