I imagine you'll at least lose your NYU deposit, but are there any other lasting consequences? No clue!! I read that of course you are committing to go to the school and not apply or go elsewhere, but not sure how they would know if you decide to do so. And what they could do about it...

My thoughts exactly. I mean, I wouldn't apply there ever again, but other than that? Maybe do a bit of research to make sure what the consequences are, but otherwise go for it.

BSWTOMSW2020 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Hi everyone, I'm new here. Was wondering if anyone here applied to Columbia's MSW program to start this Fall (2019). If so, would anyone be willing to share what the instructions or questions were for recommenders regarding the letter of recommendation? I want to give my recommenders a head start, so that I give them enough time to write a letter of recommendation. I just need to tell them what to write about. Many thanks! -BSWTOMSW2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmongradschool Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Hey y’all! I’m in the process of applying to the advanced standing track for fall 2020. I’m having some trouble with the essays. I hate the idea of only having 500 words. Any advice on essay #2: the social issue of my choice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided to choose a particular field I had interest in (mental health) and then really took a narrow approach (focusing on adolescents with BPD). If you are too broad, you may find it challenging to address this question appropriately (especially in the page limit they provide). Do you think it’s a good idea to write about the demobilization of women in the FARC (Colombian terrorist group)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took a narrow approach as well (gender-based violence in the South Asian American community).
