I heard they had problems, but I didn't think it was this bad! But again, omg thank you!! Seems like we still have a chance because I'm sure a good chunk of the people who were admitted will choose a different school (hopefully)! But it sucks that we have to keep playing the waiting game. 

Me neither, but I hope next year they fix everything so people like us dont have to wait so long for an answer again lol! And yeah i really hope that we have the chance to still get in, im going to try to stay optimistic that the both of us will get this opportunity soon

That would be so helpful! I'm so upset it didn't get sent to my email. I wonder what happened, but thanks for doing that for me  

Np! Tbh i think their whole system is messed up this year, i heard that last year they changed their admissions system so theyre still figuring out the bugs and all lol.

 

Thank you for your interest in the MSW Program at CSU Fullerton. We had an overwhelming number of applications to our program for the 2018-19 academic year. After careful review of your application package, we have placed you on our waitlist.

All completed applications are read by the Admissions Coordinator and one other faculty. Due to the high volume of applications, those with the strongest applications were invited for a personal interview. After the interview, the applicants were rated once again. At this time, we have a sufficient number of acceptances to fill our cohorts (Fullerton and MSW Flex) for the coming year.

Between now and the beginning of the fall semester, should a vacancy occur in the program, you will be contacted about your interest in accepting admission into the program. We have not, as yet, ranked those on the waitlist. Typically, some vacancies do occur over the summer months.

Again, thank you for your application to our program.

Update: never got an official CSUF email for whatever reason, but I emailed Kelly and she said I was on the waitlist. Don't know what that means or how it works to be actually considered. Oh well ☹️

i feel, since i was waitlisted as well i can copy/paste the email i got as it explains it a bit more?

Mine has been saying that "your application had been sent for graduate review" since the beginning ? Sadly, I don't think that means anything.

damn, and i was hoping for some good news lol. and yeah if they promised to notify us by the end of may, i hope we all hear back by tomorrow (and with acceptance letters hopefully!!)

Has anybody heard anything yet? End of the month is tomorrow and I haven't gotten anything yet.

Nope, not yet. The only thing ive seen change has been the message under application status, as it changed from "no decisions have been made yet" to "your application had been sent for graduate review" so idk if thats good news or not

I emailed Kelly on Friday and she emailed be back today saying "We hope to have notifications out to all applicants by the end of May to let you know if you were accepted or not into the program." Too bad I haven't even gotten an email about going to an interview! so frustrating. At this point I'm honestly thinking I'm just going to get a denial letter. Seems pretty late to be offering interviews since the "end of May" is literally next week. ......Anyway, hope this helps you guys. 

That's really helpful, thank you!! And im sorry you haven't heard back from them yet, but you never know! I wish you luck!!

I've been calling the office and can't get a hold of Kelly. So it seems like it's going to take another while before we hear back, unfortunately! 

Thats so odd! I hope that means theyre sending out their remaining admissions bcuz its getting pretty late for possible students!

[CSUF MSW Fall 2018]

Does anyone know when interviews are over? Or when they'll send out the last of their acceptance letters? Its been over a month since Ive had my interview with no response from them and I need to hear back from them soon so I can start planning to move out!

CSUF is the last school I'm waiting on! I was rejected to all 3 other schools I applied to. I'm nervous because I don't have a lot of volunteer work under my belt, but I am really hoping to start with CSUF this fall! I also hope Fullerton let's us know soon! I'm growing anxious!

Saaaaame lol, but since we both got interviews I keep hearing that once you get an interview you almost always get in? Atleast for CSU schools Ive heard that so im staying optimistic (even if they're taking a long time to respond lol)

Btw did anyone end up doing skype interviews? Just curious

I know! I was bummed out, but it is what it is! Hopefully we both get into Fullerton! Did you hear back from CSUN or Long Beach? 

Yeah, I got a rejection from both unfortunately, but CSUF is my top choice so Im not too down about the others! And if by some chance I get rejected from Fullerton im gonna check out some online programs lol. Did you hear back from any other schools you applied to?

Hi there! I interviewed this Tuesday (seems very late in the process, so that concerns me), still haven't heard back! But unfortunately, I received my rejection from CSUN today and was also not admitted to LB. It's tough out here! 

same here! csun had so many applicants though so im not too surprised lol, i only applied to these three schools so fingers crossed fullerton responds soon. hope u hear back from fullerton soon too!

Hi Everyone, 

I wanted to get your opinion on my chances of getting in. I submitted the application on the last day and did my interview on 3/12/2018. In the past forums and even on this year's forum, it seems that those who had an interview usually hear back on their acceptance a week or two after their interview. Since I haven't been contacted in over a month, should I assume I'll eventually be denied entry? I know that they're still considering potential students till mid May, but I'm not confident. My plan was to apply to this program, and if I got denied, I'd start looking for a long term job that I'm passionate about. I want to start applying to jobs now, but I'm weary in case I by chance get into the program. What are your thoughts? I hate waiting till May to officially hear back and possibly start applying and interviewing for jobs. 

 

Much appreciated, 
Andrea

Im in the same boat too lol, i had my interview on April 10th and have yet to hear back even though its been about 3 weeks now. I hope you get an acceptance soon!!

[CSUF MSW Fall 2018]

Hello! I applied to CSUF a couple days before the deadline and interviewed on April 10th and still have yet to hear anything about acceptance ? Is it normal to not hear back after a couple weeks? I'm just nervous!!

(Also anyone else who applied to CSULB or CSUN heard back about interviews yet?)
