After being extremely nervous about getting into UW-Madison, since it's my #1 school choice, I received my acceptance today!!! So excited!

Hey everyone! I'm in the process of applying for the Title IV-E program and I would like to know what is there to expect? I'm really interested in Child Welfare and working for CPS after completing my MSW. Any tips? Any advice? What are the interview questions like? Anything would help at this point.

Hey everyone. I've been lurking on this site since I found out that I could graduate in August of 2018 and start graduate school in September. I'm applying for my MSW with a concentration in Children, Youth, and Families and a subfocus in Child Welfare. I'm also applying for the Title IV-E program at both schools that I'm applying to. I'm applying locally (I'm from Wisconsin) to UW-Madison and UW-Milwaukee. UW-Madison is my first choice and I'm extremely nervous. Can anyone comment and tell me what you think of my stats? Major - Social Work CUM GPA: 3.691 - Major GPA - 4.0 Experience: Intern at United Way for two summers, Vice President of Phi Alpha Social Work Honor Society, Leader at a first-year transition program for underrepresented students on my campus, former Resident Assistant (for two years), shadowing a Family Case Manager at our children's hospital in WI Volunteer Experience: TONS of volunteer experience (with United Way and on-campus) I have strong writing and verbal skills and I am really hoping to get into the Title IV-E program. Anyone have any advice or feedback? Thanks and I'm really looking forward to hearing everyone's results!!
