Just spoke to UCLA - should be sending out decision this week, according to the person I spoke with. Still no word from UNC chapel hill. 

 

Accepted to FSU, UGA, and UofH with full tuitions and stipends. 

When do y’all think is an appropriate time to let a school know you are going somewhere else? How are y’all doing it? 

Congrats on all of your acceptances! 

I would think better sooner, rather than later to let them know you decided on somewhere else.  I sent my notifications through email.

Thats great! Best of luck with your decision, and let me know if you have any questions about Pittsburgh, the faculty, or anything. If you haven't visited, the Cathedral of Learning is beautiful and I greatly suggest checking it out.

Between Denver or Pittsburgh? Most likely the latter, however if there is funding adjustments in my favor at Denver I would much rather live there. Close to family and home. 

I went to Pitt for my MSW! It is a great program, and I loveee the city. Totally understandable about family though.  What are your research interests?

Actually, after a discussion with my partner, I have decided to accept OSU ! It is official.

Congrats on the offer!! We may become classmates this fall. I think I am about to take up the offer. 

Ahh! No way! You are going to OSU!? I am most likely going to accept as well. Just waiting to hear back from one school. 

And Congrats to you as well!

I know I got on here way late, (I definitely could have used some of this moral support a month ago), but just wanted to come into the conversation. I have an MSW from Pitt... I think someone said they were applying there?

I applied to University of Chicago, Boston College, Ohio State, and UConn. I am interested in macro, international work, human rights, human trafficking, and policy. It was actually a bit difficult to find professors at schools who have similar interests. 

Anyway, I was rejected at Chicago and Boston, and still waiting for UConn. However, just found out that I was accepted at Ohio State!!  . Has anyone else applied there?

Same with you. SAD... I am curious how many positions do they provide every year...

Sorry to hear. When I spoke to admissions in the fall, they said around only 5 in each cohort...
