[UNC Chapel Hill MSW applicants]

I just received my acceptance for the advanced standing program - good luck to everyone else!

[I specifically hate this week]

Do university administrations and departments usually close down for spring break, though? At my (Canadian) university, the administration continues to work through the break... in fact, they say it's one of the most productive weeks of the semester since it's so quiet on campus. I RA'd for a research centre in third year where spring break was just business as usual.

 

GREAT question.  I applied to UNC's MSW program and their website says they try to make decisions for the advanced standing program by March 15th, which is the end of this week!  I thought the not knowing if I was going to be accepted was killing me.  Now it's the not knowing if they're actually working through this week that's driving me nuts!!

 

Good luck to everyone...

Anyone know if UNC will be working/sending out decisions over Spring break next week? Their website says they try to make decisions for the advanced standing program by March 15th.

Still waiting........

Hey Bunny - I'm going nuts over here so you're not alone.

 

I just wanted to chime in and say that I wouldn't judge a university's MSW program based on your experience with their admissions staff.  Best of luck to you - I'm sure you'll start hearing from folks soon.

One of my very bright friends got the email yesterday and was rejected.  Still waiting here...

That's okay everyone, I'm trying to be positive about it! I still have NYU and it's not at all a bad choice to have! Good luck to those of you who haven't heard back from Chapel Hill yet.

Thanks riyadiya.  NYU is a terrific option to have!  I used to live off of Washington Square Park and the area is pretty incredible.  Get some pizza at John's in the Village!

Well all,

 

I received my rejection letter today. Good luck to all who haven't heard back yet.

So sorry to hear that, riyadiya.     

 

Best of luck to you in whatever direction you decide to move in!!

I received my acceptance today for the Advanced Standing program!!! Good luck to everyone!

Great news!!  Hopefully more to come!!!

Well...  I started out as being very patient about getting the decision but now I'm checking my email like a crazy person!!!  I really hope to get the decision this week.  UNC's the only school I applied to because of the opportunity to simultaneously pursue my Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS).  Really hope to get in but I feel pretty good about my chances.  Good luck to everyone (and their patience)!!

Thanks for posting earlycuyler.  When did you submit your application?

I'm also waiting to hear back.  I applied the day of the deadline (January 13th) for the advanced standing program.  Crow and hla003 - did both of you get accepted to the 2-year program?  I'm actually doing my BSW internship at the Behavioral Healthcare Resource Program (in the UNC School of Social Work) right now.
