miler95 got a reaction from nklr25 in MSW Fall 2019 Decisions!!!
I didn't have any financial information in the acceptance letter - for whatever reason I think they're waiting for that first acceptance since they say the final decision for your admission comes from the graduate school AFTER you accept your spot in the MSW program.

Just got an acceptance email from UW (Wisconsin). I think I have until March 18th to accept or decline... really hoping I hear back from the other schools in time to make a real decision on that one.

If anyone is looking for a Texas school or just hasn't considered it yet: University of Texas - Arlington is ranked #34 for MSW programs in the nation, and they have an insanely quick application process. I'll summarize but include the link to their page in case you wanted to read more. Maybe not many of you are interested, but for those who are, this would be a fast application to a good school and save you from asking for more Letters of Recommendation and writing more essays.
1. Advanced Standing (BSW Students/Recent BSW Graduates) - if your Jr/Sr GPA is above 3.0 just pay the application fee and turn in your transcripts. No LOR, no essays, no pain!
2. Non BSW (any major besides Social Work) - If your last 60 hours are above a 3.0, pay the fee and turn in your transcripts. Same as above, no LOR, no essays!
Note: If you are between a 2.7 and 3.0 GPA you will have to take the GRE, get letters of recommendation, and submit a personal narrative.

Most of the schools I applied to said they won't be releasing any admissions info until March - that might be why the board seems a little slower at this time of the year. I wish more places did rolling admissions, but I'm sure there are pros and cons of both. It just sucks waiting so long to know how you are going to move on with your life!

What was the interview itself like? Are you in state or did you do it through video? I'm with @A.E.S on saying that an interview is a positive sign. You basically went from a very low percentage chance to 50/50 in my eyes, depending on how the interview went and probably how well you wrote personal statements and explained your situation and how you would make sure that you could be successful at a graduate level. University of Michigan is an amazing school so congratulations for making it to this point and best of luck!

Good Luck! I officially decided on my schools as well, University of Texas - Austin, Louisville, University of Nevada - Reno, and University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee. Pretty nervous though, I don't know what to expect. My biggest fear is not getting in anywhere. :/
