I heard back 8 business days after my interview! I got in! :)

Has anyone else interviewed for Penn's MSW program yet? Is anyone else as nervous as I am about the waiting game? I've read on this forum that some people in the past heard back the next day, others heard back almost two weeks later. My interview was 2 days ago...fingers crossed!

Tip: Some schools offer fee waivers if you attend their information sessions. U.Penn and West Chester both waived my application fee for attending their information sessions/open house.

My applications are complete for Rutgers PennTempleWest Chester I'm considering applying to Bryn MawrI'm staying put in Philadelphia. Already have a full-time job in the field, working with adults with physical disabilities. I want to stay in social work but switch populations to work with immigrants and refugees, adolescents, and/or at-risk youth. My undergrad is in sociology, I graduated from Temple with a B.A. in 2013 with a 3.67 GPA. I plan to go pursue my MSW part-time with a clinical concentration. I want to eventually become an LCSW. If accepted to Rutgers or Penn, my top schools, I will pursue international social work with immigrants and refugees. The other schools don't offer it, but they're affordable and close by. We'll see who accepts me and how much financial aid I'm offered.
