Ah yes! I wrote to them too...and they told me I was not short listed! Congratulations to you! It seems like a good fit for you. In case anyone here is interested Seattle UW told me that they will decide first round by Feb end and then ask them to meet and then make final decisions....sucks! feels like its going to take forever...its pretty killing the wait....im now down to waiting to hear from just Seattle and Rutgers both of which I dont think will get back to me before a month!

Hi I too have applied for PhD...in SUNY Buffalo, Rutgers, St Louis and Seattle. Got accepted to SUNY Buffalo but thats only because they have 4 deadlines and make decisions within 4 weeks of every deadline and I had applied to their November deadline....every other school i think will take until early March. The wait is killing no? And one wishes there were more people here applying to PhD!!!! So we could also share our experiences. Best of luck!!!!

Anybody applying for a PhD? I am really struggling with my SOP....i have 3 years work experience mainly in research but also have been part of a non funded collective of activists and was wondering whether i should give details about the work i have done there as well...although it was not paid and not research related....any suggestions? Also is there any advice from any current phd students about applications? Would really help....

Hi I already have an MSW program and 3 years work ex and am a TA...i am also a feminist and have been doing research mainly in the area of violence against women and queer issues....i wanted to know if you know any social work Phds with a focus on gender....so far i have only found MSU....where faculty did do research actively in the area....please help.....
