Allanaj Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 17 hours ago, Shabelly said: Is anyone else waiting to hear back from Columbia, NYU, or Hunter? I applied to all three before February 15. I am! I applied for NYU feb 15th and heard back on the 27th. However, I’m still waiting on columbia, which is my top choice ? sent in my application on the 15th as well and was told I would get my notification last week of March/ first week of April. (Pre-virus). Still waiting and so nervous seeing everyone get their decisions! Also their phone # isn’t working so just super long waiting game here.

I am also wondering if anyone has been accepted after being waitlisted. Hello! I got accepted after beinf waitlisted initially. I was told that I will hear back by April 19 but I heard back by Mid March. So you might hear soon. All the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any concerns about COVID and moving to Berkeley to attend class? I am coming from southern california and plan on moving, but if all the classes are online I am wondering if it would be worth it to move.

I just got waitlisted a few minutes ago and was told that I will receive a descision no later than May 15th. I am also having mixed feeling about this... Is Columbia your top choice? Ah! It's definitely nerve wracking. It's my top choice, but is also the only MSW program I applied to (I also applied to a few Teachers College programs in British Columbia as well). How about you?

Allanaj Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 YALL. UGA just offered me a full ride assistantship and 12k stipend for living expenses. I literally could get my whole masters degree for $50. ?? but my dream school is Columbia. I really don’t know what to do. consciousnesscosmonaut, msw715, simonsays and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know what areas you are looking for. Sorry that I forgot to reply! I’m not sure yet. I think I’m probably going to be staying near the campus for the first year!
