I will be doing the 3 year part-time program. Fordham is the only school that I applied to; I went there for undergrad and I just am in love with the environment and the people there Kind of nervous because of the price, but they gave me a $9,000 scholarship for the entire 3 years ($1500 each semester) so that helps a little, but I need to apply for loans and scholarships. I hope there are some Fordham people around, I haven’t seen any yet. I got accepted to Fordham for the 2-year full time program. I had an accepted students webinar today with lots of useful info. I am still waiting on two other schools, but am liking Fordham more and more.

miler95 Posted March 9, 2019 Posted March 9, 2019 I thought I had all of my ASU stuff in weeks ago... I just barely got an email saying they had received all of my materials and were reviewing the application! It has shown as "In Review" for the last several weeks and I even received emails from a school rep saying that they had everything. Has anyone else experienced something similar from a school?
MSW2019!! Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Hi all! I was wondering if any of you have any general insight about the School of Social Administration (AM program) at UChicago? Or if you can answer some of my questions based on your experience: Why did you or why didn't you apply or consider UChicago? What do you know about SSA? General impressions of SSA? Any drawbacks? Anything helps!
lisafara Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Has anyone heard back from McGill for their MSW?
ashleyerden Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 I applied to CSUN and SJSU for the online MSW programs. I was accepted to CSUN but still waiting to hear from SJSU. Still not sure which I'll pick if I'm accepted to both! Good luck everyone! I hope to hear from SJSU soon but June... ugh that is so far off! I applied in November so I'm hoping that the early bird gets the worm! :-) Evelyn.D 1
MSWDUDE19 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Hi @ashleyerden, congrats on your acceptance to CSUN! If you don't mind sharing, when did you interview and receive your acceptance? I interviewed on 2/11 and have been trying to wait patiently since then.
gabbasworld Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I got my acceptance from UTK today, so the only schools I'm waiting on are University of Houston (top choice of course) and UCLA. Where is everyone else still waiting to hear from? Msw_2019! 1
Msw_2019! Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 @gabbasworld congrats!! I am still waiting for UT at Austin. The other two I was accepted at are private schools so $$$$ I wish I could talk to alumni from the programs I got accepted to and get their insight on their program. So far I've been accepted to University of Denver and Columbia University.

So far I've been accepted to University of Denver and Columbia University. That's great! I definitely feel you on the private school cost with some of the places I applied. They're good programs but so much money it's hard to justify. Are you attending any visiting days before accepting?
Msw_2019! Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 @gabbasworld I wish I could visit Columbia and DU but next week I'm going to Europe for vacation for 2 months. I wanted to do this trip before starting grad school. I did check out UT at Austin's program but without checking out DU or Columbia, I cannot compare. Has anyone visited Columbia or University of Denver's?
Evelyn.D Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 @ashleyerden Congrats on your acceptance to CSUN! We were in the interview together. I was also accepted to CSUN and am still waiting to hear from SJSU. Did CSUN give you a deadline to accept? I really hope we get the chance to work together!
Evelyn.D Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 @MSWDUDE19 I interviewed with CSUN for the online program on 2/7 and received an acceptance on 2/20. Perhaps send them an inquiry email?
MSWDUDE19 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Thank you @Evelyn.D and congratulations! Ahh the thing is I would. Trust me because this wait is agonizing lol. However, I feel like if I call it will make me seem impatient rather than professional and therefore jeopardize my chances in the long run. Especially if they are on the fence w me at this point if that may be the case. But at the same time, I am already dying to know what my status is!

For what it's worth, I reached out to a few programs to inquire about when I could expect to hear from them after getting an acceptance from somewhere else. I can't speak for all programs, but I did end up getting a general timeline in response, and it must not have affected my chances as I ended up getting accepted. I don't think asking for an update or when you could expect to hear by would be bad.
MSWDUDE19 Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) Good to know @gabbasworld and I guess you're right. I feel like this week might be the week I hear back about my status, however if I do not receive word by the end of this week I will really consider reaching out. Thanks!

mswguy Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Just made my decision to attend CSUN! other CSUN peoples hit me up!

I was also hoping for a fellowship, have you heard anything since you posted this? I haven't heard anything which is discouraging because it seems like people from other programs have at least heard about whether or not they've been nominated. Hi! I committed to Ohio State last week! Will you be attending there as well?

I previously worked as a case manager with high-risk youth and adults and then was a case management supervisor. I also worked with students on campus helping underrepresented people transfer to the UC system. My GPA was 3.875 when I applied.
