C.estwu Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 I think it's not a bad choice to apply for Fordham now if you are on the waitlist and don't have one secured school. I applied to Fordham after i received my waitlist notification from BU, and i was admitted in less than a week after i applied! even though the priority deadline had passed for weeks. I'm looking to pursue careers in addiction service and mental health counselling, and Fordham's program looks all right. Fordham's graduate school of social service was ranked 25 in US news this year, was 11 in 2018. i also received $6000 scholarship, 1500 per semester. It's not a lot but i wasn't expecting this at all.

I also applied to NYU and Fordham’s MSW programs, just got admitted into Fordham today, still waiting for NYU. Don’t really feel like having a chance with BU’s waitlist. Congratulations on Fordham! Sorry to hear about BU, I am also on the waitlist. Which is your top choice?

sbba21 Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 Does anyone have an update on BU? I applied 2/4 but haven't heard from them at all aside from the general newsletters.

Update: NYU gave me the admission today. I'm deciding on accepting, and will drop my name from BU's waitlist. Good luck to everyone waiting!
Kaleidoscopic Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 Hi y’all! Got my acceptance letter from BU for the full time Charles River campus MSU, regular track. I received it on 03/16, so good luck to all who may be still waiting!

I was waitlisted and have been stuck on the waitlist since then. They said that I would hear back by mid April at the latest, so maybe that would be the same for you? I would email admissions if you have questions about when you will hear back though, especially if you need to tell other schools a decision by a certain date. Best of luck, hope you hear back soon!

I am just curious, in your acceptance did they say when you needed to get back to them about a decision? I am trying to guess about when I will hear about my waitlist position. Thanks!!
