Is anyone attending BC looking for a roommate? 

[Alinic]

Has anyone been waitlisted and then later accepted?  I was waitlisted and it feels like a denial.

Yes. ? It’s disappointing. I guess I’m glad to have heard something. I’ve been anticipating an answer. I really hope you get in! ??

For anyone curious about the scholarship reapplication process: I have heard back on re-reviews from two (out of three) schools where I requested additional funds. Boston College matched my highest offer and U of Chicago offered an additional 3k a year. I am still waiting to hear back on scholarships from UNC, but will most likely be attending Chicago if UNC (or my re-review at Michigan) is unable to beat their offer!

I’m thinking of reaching out to UChicago to ask for additional aid. I’m curious at how you went about this process and what UChicago offered you? I already received a pretty decent scholarship which I’m grateful for but if they could provide me with any additional aid it would of course help. I have a lot of student debt already and want to minimize that and not stress while in school ?

If you don't mind sharing, how much additional funds did you request from Boston College . I'm definitely going to BC in the Fall and I submitted a scholarship Reconsideration and am waiting to hear back if they will give me any additional, I submitted it about two weeks ago, so I'm hoping they say something this week?

Any UGA, Florida State, or Florida A&M MSW applicants? If so, have you heard back from any?

I’m UGA!! My friend who applied before me heard back already and I think someone in this thread who submitted their app feb 12th(?) heard back already? But I’m still waiting. I applied on Feb 15th.

That makes me feel a lot better. I applied Feb 14, so close to your date. They did mention in their reply after receiving my application that decisions should be out by the end of the month so I am hoping to hear back by the end of this week! Though I know the unexpected Coronavirus pandemic could change things, I hope not. Good luck to you!

Hopefully someone can answer but has anyone heard from UNC MSW 3 year program? I emailed the admissions office but no luck

Thanks!!! We’ve been waiting for this for so long!! Lol 

are you gonna go there? Uchicago is my first choice and I’m thinking about submitting my deposit 

[Msw2020lala]

Anyone else apply to UChicago get a financial aid award email that didn’t include their scholarship at all?? I’m confused here and not sure who to contact. 

[msw2020waiting]

committed to U of C today. They sent me a link about joining a facebook group... but it was for the incoming class of 2019?? Anyone else got that? Is there one for the 2020 class?

How is everyone feeling with the coronavirus and us supposedly starting in the fall? Have any schools reached out to you guys? 

[Madsby]

Guys any advice of fordham vs nyu? Any info would be helpful! 

[mswusername2020]

Does anyone have advice about the process of asking for more aid? I was admitted to UChicago today with $20,000 scholarship today but am in need of further assistance than this. I heard that UChicago often honors request for further assistance and am wondering about other peoples experiences and processes with this. Thanks in advance!

My school is still continuing with everything as normal it seems.. my field placement advisor reached out to me and we will start the proces next week. They haven't hinted or stated they won't be starting in the Fall but my friends and family keep asking if I will be starting in the Fall because of COVID and I am hoping it doesn't last that long and we will all be allowed to start in the Fall. I'm nervous about not being able to start but I am remaining hopeful that everything will go back to "normal " by the summer time.
