Yes, I would email them directly, perhaps admissions but also Meggin P. Brown or another rep there.
I JUST heard back yesterday that I was accepted! I had been on "submitted" since 2/2.  I'd already submitted my downpayment for another program, as they'd given me over a month extension at that point and I didn't want to miss out on field work opportunities. But as others had said, I'll be saving so much by going to Silberman that it will all have been worth it.  Hang in there! 

You could try: mbr0005@hunter.cuny.edu  for Meggin Brown... I hope you can get an answer early next week!
I got an email, BTW, stating that there was a decision in my application. Never interviewed.. Seems like there are lots of variations down this road, and it can take a long time. Hang in there, and keep us posted!  

100%!!!!!!! ?

You totally did!  Call it excellent instincts.

I called it....congrats! I’m switching majors to psychic-ology lol ? 

Congrats!!!

That's what I thought, so I'm going forward with the other program until I hear otherwise. Thanks for the support! Tough wait. But it will all be worth it if I can get accepted...

Don’t stress yourself if you get notified later this month the worst is you lose a deposit at the other school. Hunter has no deposit due to Covid so you can just jump right in with getting this rolling. 

Thanks! Yeah, I turned down Smith which had originally been my top choice because they didn't give any aid. Since then I've decided that I'd prefer to go to a state/city program anyway since I'll be more likely to have diversity of class and race in my cohort which is important to me. That and the price of course. So if I don't get into Hunter this year I'll try again next year and also to some other SUNY/CUNYs. Does anyone know how UAlbany's MSW program is? I missed the deadline this year but I'm looking at that one as a backup for next year.

Yup, same here. I did get the accidental interview offer but no real one. I sent in my application on the last possible day so I'm not surprised they're getting to me late. If I have to apply again next year I'll do it earlier!

Well its officially been 2 weeks since my interview and my status has yet to change from "pending interview." I'm still kind of concerned about this but I don't want to bother them about it. Anyone else in the same boat? 

FYI the financial aid office has started sending out financial aid offers. Mines was in my email, and on the financial aid part of CUNY First. Best of luck to everyone. See you in the fall

Hi everyone!! I interviewed on Thursday and I got accepted today!! Hope everyone else hears back this week.
Would also appreciate some advice because my heart wants Boston University but for financial reasons, my brain said I should do hunter. I want to become a LCSW and provide trauma-informed care and advocate for survivors of sexual and relationship violence. Hunter has a mental health specialization with few options for electives while BU has a trauma and violence specialization, flexibility with courses, and faculty immersed in the work I want to do in the future. 

@MSWNYC I was asked to interview. 
 
I wonder if it’ll take longer for them to get back to people who have interviewed as compared to those who didn’t  this is really tough but I’m wishing for the best for you all

Literally me too! I've pushed all my other schools back for a month and those dates are coming up. Now when I reach out to Hunter's admissions, they get rude and say they're doing their best already. it's so frustrating

Same, I'm still at "submitted". I'm not sure why it's taking this long to get a response and it's making my nervous.

@MSWNYCi feel your pain. I am also still waiting. Were you interviewed?

They said:

"In order to determine eligibility, 21-22 FAFSA must be on file. Scholarships are offered through the academic departments. We encourage students to contact their academic department for opportunities available. In addition, please review the link below to our Scholarship Homepage for more information."
The scholarship homepage linked was the general Hunter one, and wasn't super helpful in answering my questions though I may try to dig deeper. I responded to them and hopefully they'll get back with a clearer answer.

And I'm still deciding but feeling pretty set on accepting. I'm deciding between Hunter and NYU (haven't heard back from Columbia but it's not my top choice), but all the feedback I've gotten is that if you're queer and into social justice and not just tryna go directly into private practice, Hunter is the move. Not to mention the difference in cost!!

I finally got an email back, this is what they said. Let's hope this week ?
"We are adding new dates to the interview schedule as quickly as we can.  As soon as we have more dates you will receive an email with regards to scheduling an interview."

 

UPDATE -- I just received my acceptance to Hunter! I hope everyone hears good news soon! 

i got accepted!! I didn't expect to find out until next week, but I just received my email this morning

hi everyone! 
late to the thread but i was accepted and am enrolled in the fall 2021 2 year full time program! can’t wait to meet everyone :) i applied in late December, completed mid-january, and heard back in February 18 that i was accepted! i didn’t have an interview. i was told we will get a “welcome packet” in April but i’m impatient and just want to register for classes, know my field work placement, etc. ugh
godspeed to everyone and can’t wait for the fall! 

Thanks for the responses! Misery loves company  ... Looks like next week. I hope!
