I am looking to apply for graduate school for fall 2013. What are the odds of me being admitted into NYU Steinhardt School for Education? I would like to enter their literacy specialist program. Or even the Teacher's College (I know that pushing it lol). But what are my odds?
I graduated undergrad with a 3.2 GPA. My school was a liberal arts college in nj. My school is currently ranked as #26 in the US news best colleges. My major was Social Science and I had mostly A- & B grades except for two math classes (math was my weakness). I currently work as a 1st grade teacher and along with that I am a Title 1 Instructor. (I teach an extra block of literacy for low Performing children).
If not NYU, what decent graduate schools within NJ/NY would I most likely qualify?
Nobody can tell you the "odds," even if you did give adequate information (all we know are your undergrad GPA. You didn't mention your GRE scores, how long you have been working as a first grade teacher, whether you'd done any research or internships in your field in undergrad, what other jobs you had, etc.)
A 3.2 GPA isn't that low. Basically, you should just apply and see what happens.
