I'm a little late to the game, but are there other applicants who applied to CU for the Feb. 15th deadline? I did! They told me end of March/ early April. Praying that’s true because I’m making a trip up there first week of April, which is my spring break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took my recommenders a very long time to submit recommendations. ? Did you also apply there? Have you heard back? I applied the last day of the deadline because I go to Rutgers as an undergrad so my transcripts and recommenders also are at Rutgers so it was able to send over fast. I did hear back about 10 days later around the 14th or so. I know a few people who did not hear back yet either so do not worry!! I got in and I did accept to go there already!!

I also applied to Fordham, Case, USC, Pacific University, Simmons, Ohio State and Rutgers. So far I have heard from Case and Fordham. Hi! I haven't heard anything either, no, but I just read that those who applied Feb. 15th should hear back by early April. What're you leaning towards?

msvmsw Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Hi Everyone! Has anyone who applied for a special program at UMich heard back? I accepted my place at Michigan but have not heard anything about the 2 special program scholarships I applied for. Also, I interviewed at Michigan (I requested, to explain low GPA) so if anyone has any questions about that process I'm happy to help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HG2020 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Long-time lurker, popping in late in the game. I applied to full time programs at Hunter, Columbia, Rutgers, Fordham, and UPenn. Still working on apps for NYU and UMich, to be honest. My ADHD is kicking in ? I got my acceptance letter from UPenn today! Bittersweet news honestly. I'm obsessed with their program and I LOVE Philly, but the tuition is insanely high and they only offered me 12k. From what I've heard that seems about standard. I just can't justify going 150k into debt for a social work degree... Really bummed I don't think I can make it happen. I've also been accepted in Rutgers and Fordham, which I'm unsure about. Really just waiting on Hunter!! Congrats to everyone who's gotten into their school, and good luck to everyone still waiting! We got this. iloveanthonyrizzo, IPmsw2020 and ara275 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msw2020waiting Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I interviewed with Penn two weeks ago but still haven’t heard back. I called this morning... they told me that I can expect a decision letter tomorrow. At this point I’m just assuming that I don’t stand a chance ?

ara275 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I have an interview with my assigned UW Field Faculty. Has anyone else gone this far in their process yet?

Nai23 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Yall, I got into Columbia!

Maybe they want you so bad but are trying to see if they can find money from different sources to give you a larger offer. Let me know!

NYCMSW2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Does anyone have any thoughts on what is considered a good amount of financial aid for a school like Columbia? I got $16,000 a year and I am trying to gauge if that is average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
