Every school is different. Ask your advisor.

Congratulations! How is the DSW different from a PhD?
-
Simply do a search for social work faculty positions and compare them to other disciplines to get an idea. I just checked and there are indeed some tenure-track openings but not like a ton.

Study for the GRE and aim for a high score, focus your research interests and identify professors whose interests match yours, and apply to schools with ideally three or more years of funding.

Lack of Statistics Classes/Research
Noegenesis replied to undergrad1's topic in Mathematics and Statistics
If you are equally qualified as another similar applicant, the applicant with more statistics courses will be considered more favorably than you. There are plenty of statistics courses online. Is there any way you can strengthen your application? -
Wow, you really killed it this season! Congratulations!!
-
Wonderful news! Congratulations!!!
-
Not necessarily. You may be on a waitlist. Nothing's final until you receive official word on your portal or via an email/letter.
-
It's a prestigious scholarship and would help your application substantially. A GPA of 3.5 may or may not preclude you from getting accepted into "grad school": a variety of factors other than your GPA matter, too (e.g., program you're applying to, your publications, your LORs).
-
All's well that ends well!
-
It definitely varies by program! I've had one acceptance, one rejection, and I'm still waiting to hear from three schools...
-
Bummer... I wonder if there's a way to fix this. You would obviously save the school some money if you didn't go through the MSW courses again, right? ?
-
Sounds like a good idea. Hope you won't have to do your MSW all over again...
-
I'm sure it's not just a title; you actually will get both your MSW and PhD in a joint program. So, if you already have a MSW, you wouldn't be applying to such a program.
-
Someone earlier mentioned an acceptance already...
-
You're right, and a few NYU acceptances... Looks like a lot of activity this week.
-
What's wrong with UChicago's accreditation? Congratulations by the way!

How bad does NO LOR from advisor hurts
Noegenesis replied to OliverXu's topic in Letters of Recommendation
It might not "hurt" per se, but if that advisor would be able to talk more in-depth about your research than your other LOR writers, then you might be missing out on a good reference. It probably won't hurt to ask this advisor for a recommendation---Have you tried asking? -
Application for MS/PhD in Mechanical Engineering
Noegenesis replied to EnergyGeek's topic in Engineering
Okay, I hope you get into a few schools! You never know until you try. Good luck! -
As long as you haven't received official notice, you still have a shot for both the M.S. and PhD program. You can check the results section of this site to see if other people have already been admitted/rejected, or you can email the school directly for a decision timeline.
-
That's a powerful trait. Not many people enjoy or excel at the interview process. Hope things work out for you this time.
-
Has anyone posted results on this website? Unless you can confirm that other people have already been accepted/rejected, don't panic and keep on waiting for official notification!
-
Acceptances are based on a variety of factors. Country of origin shouldn't be one of those factors, otherwise it would be discrimination.

Application for MS/PhD in Mechanical Engineering
Noegenesis replied to EnergyGeek's topic in Engineering
You're definitely qualified, but at the top schools, there are a lot of equally qualified applicants, and nothing's certain. Are you considering applying to other second-tier schools? -
Hope you get admitted to your other two schools! Keep hoping!
