  1. Oh thank you @wongjcz I feel that we all should be supportive in one another, we are all trying to make a difference in this world and in the lives of others, why should that start after we graduate or even after acceptance. But I really do appreciate all your kind words, same to you @Beetroot. I got my MSW at Columbia, so I kind of had a feeling I wouldn't get accepted into the PhD program, so it was a long shot. 

    I am really grateful for this forum and for you all on this journey in becoming "Doctors" for the people we wish to serve and assist, in whatever capacity that may be. Good Luck to you all in whatever you choose to do!

  2. haha no I hear ya @Beetroot I would be too... I just gotta see the official then it would sink in. lol and Columbia... yea hopefully.. I tried calling yesterday but no one answered to try to get an update from their meetings, so I emailed the person I got the original info from, so I'm hoping I will hear from her on Monday so I can update everyone.But hopefully we will hear this coming week... fingers crossed!

  3. @Beetroot YES... hoping we hear great news!!! And I see, makes more sense now that they were the ones you mentioned in SoP... I was confused on the whole process.. still am lol But this makes sense. My area of interest are around trauma, more specifically rape, sexual assault and domestic violence around primary and secondary survivors and the effects on both and how to work with both by providing best practices. But more so around the effects on the secondary survivors and how to mold a nonprofit targeting these specific clients.( This also includes survivors who have comorbidity with a disability or other violent crimes associated)

    What about you, what are your interest areas?

     

    @wongjcz Haha no worries.. and yes, it is a very good thing life is a learning process, we can all learn something from one another!

  4. @Beetroot Thank you for your honestly, and I don't think you are holding out anything. It def. sounds promising though. Did they mention if others were going to interview? I am glad that you were able to connect with potential advisors. Must be a great feeling for you. You also applied to Columbia? The PhD in Social Work or a different program? Columbia's PhD in Social Work is another program I applied to as well. Ive spoken to one of the staff that sends out the decisions. She said that they have 3 scheduled days the committee was meeting to make decisions, Feb 1st, Feb 15th, and Feb 22/27th. So there is a possibility that they will send out decisions once they are all made or some may trickle out this week or next. 

    And the brain fuzziness is completely normal!!! No worries!!! And what is that saying... Patience is a Virtue @wongjcz ;/

    Tuesday. Yes - trying not to worry and to remember that I'm interviewing them as much as they are interviewing me (yeah, right). :) Will keep you posted!

    Did you apply to Penn as well? Would love to hear when you hear.

    Haha I am sure you will do great! Thanks. 

    Yes I did apply.. The same program as you. That's why I was confused on the interview. If I hear anything I'll post it.
