    Thank you so much! I’m actually still deciding but I’m leaning towards Columbia - I submitted an appeal to see if they can match Chicago’s offer! Fingers crossed.

    Thanks so much!! I applied 1/15 for the two year track and heard back on 3/14. I submitted my scholarship appeal last Sunday 4/4. Are you waiting on uChicago?

    Just received an increase of 10,000 in scholarships bringing my total package to 40,000/yr from UChicago!!

    Thanks so much this means a lot! Rooting for you the waiting game is so hard but hang in there!!

    Yes!! I was super surprised. I love chicago (I grew up there) but I think I’m leaning towards Columbia. They gave me slightly less money than Chicago so I’m hoping they can match Chicago’s offer. UNC is actually the most affordable option for me since I qualify for in-state, but I’m not sure if I will attend. I will be making a decision soon so hopefully this frees up a spot for another student to be accepted to UNC!

    I was also accepted last night to the two year program!

    I didn’t get the email until 6:36pm yesterday! There’s still a bit of time left no worries. Also they could just be delayed. For some of my other schools, they notified me after their promised deadline but I still was accepted! Hang in there

    Just heard back from Uchicago with a 30k scholarship per year!! Congrats to everyone who also got in :)) so exciting

    I also received 20k/yr from Columbia! It’s usually the max they give out however I’ve heard people who received the same appeal amount appeal and get more scholarship money!

    I applied 12/1! Are you still waiting on a decision? They’re being so slow with everyone, hang in there!

    Received an acceptance from Columbia this evening!!

    I feel you 100%! It’s pretty frustrating to be honest. I’ve seen in past forums where they even extend their decisions until late March or April for priority applicants. I hope it won’t be the same case this year. It’s nice to know multiple priority applicants are still waiting too though!
  15. MSWchic
    I’m also still waiting. When did you apply?
  16. MSWchic
    I actually emailed admissions last week on Thursday and they said I’ll hear my decision within 1-2 more weeks. I think somebody else also got that same answer too. I applied 12/1! I really hope they do release some decisions today though
  17. MSWchic
    Oh wow ? makes me doubt they’re going to respond by 3/1 now. Thanks for letting me know!
  18. MSWchic
    Anybody hear back from Columbia today?
  19. MSWchic
    For those who have heard back from Columbia - what time did you receive your decision? (Did this happen via email or did you refresh your checklist page)
  20. MSWchic
    Aw man that sucks is their scholarship entirely need based? Or is some of it merit based?
  21. MSWchic
    Is there anybody who applied to Columbia 12/1 still waiting on a decision?
  22. MSWchic
    Congrats!!
  23. MSWchic
    Has anybody heard anything from Columbia today? If so did you apply before or after 12/1?

    Concerning Erika Hart’s situation - it’s extremely disappointing to hear how Columbia SSW handled the whole situation. NYU Silver was also called out for another racist incident a while back too. As a bipoc, I was definitely turned off by how the institution handled all of these situations but at this point I’m realizing that no institution, even those with a clean track record, are immune to racism... up until recently CSSW had a clean track record. Many schools are trying to become more anti-racist but racism is systemic and it is deep... with majority being predominantly white institutions it’s hard to avoid these racist encounters no matter which school we choose to go to. So even though these events are steering me away, I’m trying to focus on which school I can benefit from the most and which school’s values and field opportunities align with what I want to do. But I’m also considering at diversity of staff and students too.

    Also applied 12/1 and still waiting to hear from Columbia! Just wanted to say this to provide some solidarity in this waiting game LOL
