@anthurium no news yet?
-
Just received my acceptance to the 3 year program! @anthurium hope you hear soonn!!!!
-
@mintypins nothing for you? I know you said you applied to the 2 year program. @Kgroves which option did you apply for?
-
There’s another rejection in the results page from yesterday. Nothing here yet
-
On the main Thegradecafe results page. Search for “portland.” Looks like one rejection and one acceptance for the two year program from today. maybe they are admitting: advanced standing>two year>three year>four year
-
Ahhhh I see the two results!!! Ahh!!!! @mintypins
-
Not lookin good for today
-
@anthurium PM'd you
-
@mintypins My personal statement wasn't anything that stands out, I don't think, but I feel confident about my other essay.
-
As long as none of us have heard, its good news. Waitlists are brutal. I agree with @mintypins and will just move on with plans at that point. I didn't apply anywhere else because I have a great job in the field here. I can't see myself going to George Fox and I've heard pretty mixed things about the counseling program at Lewis & Clark. And obviously, debt sounds awful considering what we earn in the social services field. @anthurium @Kgroves Thanks guys! Its next Saturday and I'm headed up to Vancouver, BC for a MUCH NEEDED vacation!
-
no updates here. My birthday is next saturday. this could really make or break it for me!!!!
-
I'm so nervous about not getting anything if others do.
-
I sure will!
-
Thanks for the info! @mintypins and i are exhausted from refreshing our emails

I have a BA in sociology with a concentration in family studies and a minor in "Law, politics, & society" (interdisciplinary). I have worked in a few group homes for adjudicated youth (all male) -- gang & drug offenders, sex offenders. I worked as a milieu counselor in a residential treatment center for kids with severe behavioral problems and was in a CSEC all-girls unit for teens. Then I worked in a community based supportive housing program for adults with severe & persistent mental illness and volunteered at the DV crisis line at the same time. I have been working in Affordable Housing for the past two years as a Resident Services Coordinator and work at an SRO for formerly homeless women. I went through Community Health Worker training and certification last year and plan to do the Health Across the Lifespan concentration to do health promotion I burned myself out on trauma work although I still deal with it in a less direct way. I love working with women! I make pretty good money in my current position which is why I want to do the 3 year program. (Also we are hiring right now if you are in Portland...........)
-
Let's distract ourselves: what did you guys @mintypins @Kgroves study for undergrad? where do you work currently if you're in the field (organization, population, type of work)? what concentration/emphasis do you plan on doing if you're admitted to PSU? I'm losing my mind checking my email and refreshing the admissions page and lurking these forums.
-
It seems like advanced standing might have had different deadlines. I haven't heard of anyone from other program options hearing back now. I keep thinking about last years notification times as well but every year seems different based on lurking these threads.
-
I believe email. You can check your admission status on the application page as well. It will change and show a box to check your decision letter once it is released.
-
ugh still no word
-
My coworker, her mom, and three of her moms friends - all advanced standing - received decisions last Sunday. I applied to the 3 year program and nothing yet.
-
I feel like Advanced Standing has to have first decision since its a 1 year program as opposed to me, applying for the 3 year part-time program. Fingers crossed into spaghetti knots!
-
My coworker just got her acceptances and her mom and some other folks also got decisions today but they applied advanced standing. I’m just hoping I’m not waitlisted— the worst!
-
Hey, I applied to the 3 year program and am checking daily for basically no reason except self torture!
