I called on Friday of last week and they said they still had not made a decision on my application, but assured me I would hear by March 1. Still waiting.

I got information from admissions that decisions for two year track are coming out this Friday and the next and advanced standing cane out last Friday 1/17. So we should all hear back soon for the two year track! I’m feeling confident about hearing from UC.
Hoping UChicago is generous with scholarships!
Ahhhhh, I am getting SO impatient. I applied to UChicago Advanced Standing, but more specifically I applied to the Joint AM/PhD track. I understand it's fairly common to hear back regarding just the MSW part first and then hear back about the PhD part, so I was really hoping to hear back about my AM admission along with other advanced standing applicants, but no such luck.

Just to let you know, the GRE writing scale only goes to 6. Thought you may want to double check that you put the correct score on applications!
Oops. It must've been a 5.5 then. I sent my GRE scores directly so no worries on applications.

I am also waiting on IUPUI! Are you from Indy? I am & I'm eager to hear back. Hopeful for solid financial aid.

Not that I know of. But if you end up calling, can you share what they say?
Yeah so I called UChicago and they transferred me to Theodore Barnes, the Assistant Director of Admissions. I had to leave a voicemail for him. I kind of chickened out and left a very awkward voicemail saying he didn't have to call me back because I'm sure he is very busy. It was not my finest moment hahaha. I was just so flustered that they sent me to someone so high up. I assumed I would be talking to a student worker or something.

Has anyone been brave enough to call UChicago?
-
Mine hasn't changed and doesn't seem to be ready anytime soon so maybe that is the key.

Hi All,
I applied to UM's Joint Sociology/Social Work PhD program. I was told that admission was extremely selective for that particular combo - last year, 2 out of 30 applicants were selected. So, my hopes aren't too high, but I figured I'd try. Anyone else apply to that combination? Any word back?
I tried for that combo but I haven't heard back. Honestly I am 100% certain I won't get in, but I gave it a try!

Congrats on getting into UIC!! You sound awfully competitive and I bet you'll get into all your programs! What is your top pick?
Thanks Zayah, that's so kind! UChicago is my top pick, but only if I'm offered substantial financial aid. I'm not willing to go $70,000 into debt over a 1 year degree. UIC and IUPUI are priced similarly - even though UIC is out of state for me. Not sure which of those two I would pick if they are my main options. I'm having a hard time deciding whether or not I should stay in Indianapolis (mostly because of family/life circumstances, professionally it's a no brainer to move to Chicago). UofM I'm really not sure about. Great program obviously, but I really value city life and being surrounded by diversity and Ann Arbor is just so affluent. Racially diverse, sure, but not very diverse socioeconomically speaking. Time will tell!

Hey all! I've been reading this forum for months but just created an account to be able to post today. I'm graduating with my BSW in May from the University of Indianapolis and I have applied to some MSW programs and some MSW/PhD programs for Fall 2020.
Stats: 3.985 GPA, GRE: 157V, 150Q, 6.5AW. Two practicums & completing independent research project with Honors College.
I applied to IUPUI for just an MSW on 11/19 - haven't heard back.
I applied to UIC for just an MSW on 11/19 - heard back yesterday by calling their office to inquire about decision. Was accepted!! They told me they had *just* reviewed my file that day, so if you applied after 11/19, they probably haven't gotten to your file yet.
Applied to UofM and UChicago for joint MSW/PhD on Dec 1 - haven't heard back.
I'll keep everyone updated as things happen! So excited for all of us!

Rejected from PhD (Sociology was my SS), accepted for MSW (I applied for admission to both). Not surprised & frankly kind of relieved! haha
