I saw that on my portal too.

I am convinced I’ll never hear from UT it’s laughable.

I have been following this thread and the wait has been GRUELING...but I received notification of my acceptance last night! First, in an email from the Graduate School sent at 10:16 PM PST (so late???), and then an email to check the MSSW portal from the program's admissions counselor early this morning. Nothing about financial aid yet, so fingers crossed. 

Hang in there everyone and best of luck!!!

Hi I have been following this thread for a while. I was wondering if any one else applied to the post BSW advanced standing program for the summer and was denied? I recently was denied in the first round of reviews and trying to learn more about other applicants that were admitted for future reference.

has anyone heard anything the past few weeks even with all the craziness going on?

I'm sorry - that stinks. I applied for the summer too but never heard back. If you don't mind me asking, how do you know it was the first round? Did they tell you.

Y’all are going to think this is crazy! But does anyone have a link or info on when summer / fall semesters start ? I can’t find any type of calendar with dates??

There is only information for Fall students on the website link above. I have tried looking for summer start dates and have not found anything. I found the school calendar and saw that last years student orientation for summer was June 6. However, when I checked this years there was no student orientation for summer students on the calendar. Here is the link to the calendar https://socialwork.utexas.edu/events/month/

For those accepted and attending the school of social work in the fall...are y'all nervous about taking classes in the fall? I was looking forward to the social aspect of the program...I'm not sure how that will be replicated online... I almost feel cheated out of the experience
