I did this this year and was accepted to many programs - totally doable!

I heard from Rutgers on Friday

has anyone heard from UAlbany or UBuffalo?

Congrats! Where did you end up accepting?

Hi all! I'm hoping to get some information about how Columbia and BC compare. I would love to hear from students that went to the school, as well as people in the field, as to what the better school is. For reference, I received equal funding to both and have research matches are both schools.

Me too Do you think you'll go?

Is anyone else unable to access the admissions results page? https://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php

I got a second invite too - I think all the professors that are interested in you are getting an interview

There are so many unspoken rules in academia it's hard to keep up!

I did not - I didn't realize that that was a thing until it was kind of too late. However, I have a very strong research match with my professor so I'm hoping that will help me recover.

Hi! I was contacted by my POI and I haven't posted on the results page yet. I'm sure you'll hear something soon - good luck!

I received an interview invite from BC yesterday - so if you haven't already, you should hear something soon!

Anyone hear anything from Rutgers, UPitt, UBuffalo or UAlbany?

A professor from Columbia told me that there would be no interviews and that they were expecting to release decisions no earlier then late February but most likely early March

I saw on the acceptances/interviews page that someone received an interview form NYU the other day https://www.thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php?q=social+work

This is an amazing mistake to hear haha! thanks for the update!

Thanks for the update! So they’ve sent all of the invites they’re going to send?

Has anyone heard anything from Boston College? Especially from PP? I had a preliminary interview with him a few weeks back and am dying to hear more news.

Did University of Buffalo require an interview?

School: Boston College Type: PhD Counseling Psychology Date of invite: December 14 Type of invite: email from POI

Would you mind sharing your stats? What kind of questions should we expect during the interview?

this was so helpful thank you

Didn't see a thread so thought I would start one! Anyone applying for a PhD in social work? Joint MSW/PhD programs? What is your story?

Is the PhD program just as bad?

I'm hoping to apply next fall! Thank you for the advice, I'll be sure to mention it (in my statement of purpose?). Also for reference, I graduated in 2018 so those are the final numbers.
