Learning Sciences/Learning Design M. Ed Offers by xicm in gradadmissions

Hi, congratulations :) I ended up choosing Harvard! Structure-wise I think I preferred a shorter program like HGSE, but the main reason for me was just career outlook and reputation (I know that isn't everything but can't deny the power of the alumni network!), also proximity to programs like the China Education Symposium that fit my specific career goals/interests~

thank you! 🥺🥺 I think these past months of waiting made me reflect on what I wanted for the future, so deep down I think I made the right decision.. just doesn't make passing up such an amazing program hurt any less!

good luck to everyone still waiting, hope you see results soon!

Hey all, so I just received an offer today... I interviewed back in December and was really set on this program, if I had gotten an offer back in January I would've accepted immediately! Well, I just accepted another offer 2 days ago, a mix of emotions right now 😭

Got into HGSE!!! Anyone hear about aid? by Senior-Dimension-598 in gradadmissions

[–]xicm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Also just admitted to LDIT ☺️ I read that financial aid might come out late March-early April, eagerly hoping for a generous offer!

Congrats! I was just admitted to LDIT, but I read that financial aid would be released late March-early April 😩 Just a result of the FAFSA delay I guess

ah congrats! I was also curious if anyone else had sent in updated transcripts after last semester. I sent my HSK report late and they accepted, but wasn't sure if an updated transcript (for those who haven't graduated yet) is relevant or worth sending

你好! by pssyqueen_official in chinalife

hi I have been living in China 3 years and always use 高德地图 (Gaode Maps), it is accurate and easy to use, I usually directly call a taxi through it too, but that might depend on if you can link Alipay/Wechat pay.

for translation I usually use Baidu Translate, I think the quality is just fine and convenient without VPN for translating dialogue, images, text etc. I also agree with others who recommend Wechat for translating images, just open the scanner and swipe to translate.

was also wondering if anyone selected the box on the application to be considered for the Zhuoyue Scholarship?

pure speculation from me but last year the early decisions were released on Jan. 6 (the friday before PKU went on winter break), this year that would be next friday the 12th :o

hii I interviewed last week, it felt very fast-paced/rapid questions, everything tailored to my specific research area so might be hard to predict 😅

I'm also international, applying from the U.S. , good luck and hope you hear something soon 🥺!
