The program is actually pretty different from standard masters degrees. Those are usually one year courses, then you do a semester of student teaching, and you aren't earning a salary for any of this time. From teachers I've talked to who went this path, the expectation is you just take out large student loans to live on while student teaching, even if you did the masters in the evening while working 9-5.
Due to that, there were over a hundred applicants for each Cohort that went through a multi stage interview process to be accepted into the program - the 30-40k salary wasn't much but it was still better than $0.
I don't believe the issue was in finding recruits, it was in helping them through administrative barriers/hurdles which were constantly being created.
