Hi Paige Elizabeth.... I'm sorry to hear about you GREs, but it sounds like you are a smart girl who has a lot of social work experience and the admissions really looks at that. I am currently in the MSW program at Cal State Northridge and I am loving the it! The schools comes from a strengths based perspective which basically means that we try to focus on and find any strength within our clients lives. There is not a set concentration that you have to choose, we learn about every population which is good since social work is so broad! Just a thought good luck.

Checked my status today on SFSU website and was denied admissions! Good thing I'm already going to CSUN! They took wayyyyy to long to get back to students! Good luck to those still waiting and congrats to those who heard the good news!

Ok thank you! & Congrats!

Has anyone heard back about the Title IV-E stipend at SFSU that you could apply to at the same time the other application was due?
-
Cal State MSW's - which are better? Is USC worth the $?

Has anyone been accepted to the Orange County Academic Center for Social Work at USC? I was recently accepted to that program and was wondering if anyone else was or if anyone needed a roommate! -
Hello! I just got accepted into the Social Work program at Orange County Academic Center and was wondering if anyone else was accepted there or needs a roommate! Thanks

I completely agree with you. Anywhere we choose to go we will be learning the basics and doing field work. Its just like i said, USC provides way more stipends and scholarships than CSUN. There is one stipend to apply to for csun and they give priority to people who are already working at agencies.
-
But then again, I don't want to base my decision strictly on money. I want to look at the program and what kind of reputation the school has as well. It's just a tough decision.
-
Ok well at least you know the reason now why they didnt respond to you! USC has so many more stipends and scholarships, and its a program that has been around for so long. CSUN has been around for 4 years, but i like it because you dont have to choose a concentration. Since im out of state it would be 30,000 a year so its still super expensive. I need to tell them today, ahh! Thanks for your input, i definitely consider the money part heavily.

By the way, futurelcsw...did you finally get to set up an interview at CSUN?
-
I just got a call from USC , i was finally taken off the waitlist...now i have to choose between USC and CSUN. I really love everything about the program at CSUN but USC is such a well known school. Not sure what to do...any suggestions?
-
I finally got accepted into CSUN MSW today!!! After waiting five weeks since interview, finally heard the good news.

You totally wont! Just word it nicely !

They emailed me to set one up on Friday and I responded friday and they got back to me on Monday. They have forgotten to respond to one of my emails before, its easy to over look an email when they get hundreds a day. I would defintely respond back and ask if they recieved your times. They wont call you out of the blue. seriously though, just email them again with your times
