gingerbreadhuman Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 I got a phone call earlier today saying I got accepted and they gave me a really good scholarship package so it looks like I'm going to MGH. Has anyone else heard back from MGH? Anyone planning on going?

Has anyone else heard back from MGH? Anyone planning on going? Finally someone started this thread!! ❤️ I'm still waiting to hear back from other schools...I don't know why though because this is probably my top choice and my parents keep saying "come on, we know that's where you'll be next year!" but it's all too real lol. Anyway, I'm pretty sure I will choose MGH
BioCook Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Excited for you both! I'm still waiting to hear back... luckily MGH is sending out formal letters on the 7th, so at least that waiting game will be over. Let me know if you have questions about Boston in general! musicalmini 1

Music&SLP Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 (edited) Hi everyone, I was also accepted in MGH for Fall 2019 and it's my first choice so I'm thrilled! I'll be at the open house on the 23rd. I live in Boston and have been here for 10 years, so feel free to send questions my way as well:) Good luck to all still waiting for responses. Edited March 7, 2019 by Music&SLP
Jen Kelley Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 I got in as well! I'm anxious to receive the formal letter. I go to undergrad in Florida, and I already got my flight for the open house Did anyone get into Northeastern and BU also?

I also got into BU and will be planning to attend both open houses. I'll see you there!
Music&SLP Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 I got into Northeastern and BU as well, still waiting to hear from Emerson...but since I'm interested in voice & medical SLP, MGH seems like the ticket. I love the Partners Hospital system, and it's a huge network here in MA.
slpfall2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Does anyone know when we'll get the official letter?

BU is also very great with voice too, but I can imagine that the voice track at MGH is what you're leaning towards.
BioCook Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Received my acceptance and open house emails a few mins ago!
Music&SLP Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 (edited) Does anyone have insight into whether we can ask about loan amounts before accepting our place, or if this info is part of the conversation once you've accepted a program placement? Edited March 7, 2019 by Music&SLP BurritoConnoisseur 1
sarah189 Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Did anyone receive an additional email about scholarships? I know they said we'll get an email in a couple of days, but on the phone they said we'll probably receive the email along with the official letter. Thanks!

Sadly in the past years merit based scholarship info was included in the acceptance email. It makes me feel better though only 1/3 of the people get scholarship Edited March 7, 2019 by BADASSALICE

I was offered a scholarship over the phone and did not receive an email about the scholarship. If they mentioned it on the phone, I'm sure it'll come in an email soon! It seems as if the acceptance emails are from MGH as a whole, and not SLP, so maybe that's why.

I wonder if they're holding off on scholarship information until they get a better understanding of who will be accepting their offers... I didn't get offered a scholarship, but it would be great to get more info on it further down the line as we approach April 15th, etc.

I'm hoping I'll get some funding, but I was so freaked out by the time I got the phone call about not having heard yet, that I forgot to ask anything about it over the phone. ? But I am worried about the cost of the program, some information about scholarships, like just if I am or am not eligible for one, would be very helpful right now!
kate9696 Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 I also got in, but the program is so expensive and I didn’t get a scholarship so I’m not sure I can go sadly
gingerbreadhuman Posted March 8, 2019 Author Posted March 8, 2019 In the email I got it mentioned the scholarship and that in the next few days I will be getting an email from financial aid with additional info
eakacz Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Congratulations everyone!! I'm a current 1st year in the program so feel free to send me a DM if you have any lingering questions! Edited March 8, 2019 by eakacz samiamslp, slpfall2019, musicalmini and 1 other 4

samiamslp Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Did anyone else just get an email from MGH about tuition costs? I'm pretty sure my sudden gasp at the price made the guy next to me very concerned.? musicalmini 1
