eleef Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Hi everyone, Has anyone heard back from BU, BC, and NYU? I haven't... should I be worried? Hi there. I heard from NYU today , but am still waiting on BU and BC.
Easel Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Hi, everyone. I will have an interview of Case Western Reserve University at Friday. But I hear a lot of negative opinions about the school's administration system, the road, the food, the conservative and antiforeign people . And more incredibly, someone even deems Cleveland as a dead zombie city, because lots of people are moving out. Is there anyone who knows CWRU and Cleveland?
nbTH11msw Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Hi everyone, Has anyone heard back from BU, BC, and NYU? I haven't... should I be worried? I heard back from BC the second week of February. My application was complete in the beginning of January. When was your application complete?
boston87 Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 My application was complete March 1 , 2011... so I guess it is my fault, since I sent in my application so late. I heard back from BC the second week of February. My application was complete in the beginning of January. When was your application complete?
M30s8 Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Just found out I was accepted to Columbia's advanced standing program! So excited! Good luck to everyone!
Victory2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Has anyone else heard from USC who applied after December?
Devyn Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Has anyone else heard from USC who applied after December? last I heard my application was under review last week for USC....I applied Jan 11th. I hope to hear soon.
Lilly Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Just heard yesterday that I got into University of Washington at Seattle! But not the day program...extended evening program..and they want a commitment by April 8th! Agh! And I've only heard from them and Berkeley so far...out of the SEVEN schools I applied for! Has anyone heard from SFSU or U of Chicago? Or, for those who got into Berkeley, did you get any financial aid information yet?

Has anyone heard from SFSU or U of Chicago? Or, for those who got into Berkeley, did you get any financial aid information yet? I also got into Berkeley and UW. The Office of Admissions at Berkeley said that people who were awarded fellowships would hear by the end of this week... I've heard nothing yet. I got into the day program at UW and I have the same deadline for giving them a decision (April 8th). It's unfortunate that the scholarship/fellowship deadlines are April 1st because we evidently won't hear back about those until May. I'm going to call the Social Work department and Financial Aid office today so see if they can help me come up with some money now so that I don't have to confirm my acceptance blindly with no word about aid.... I'd REALLY rather not do that. If anyone has any ideas or hears anything about financial aid for UW, can they post it here?
urbanengine Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I submitted both of my applications to UCLA and USC on the last day of their deadlines (in mid-January and mid- March), so I know I have a lot of waiting to do...ho hum! Stephanie

I just had that exact conversation with the UW people, I asked "So, we're expected to commit without any idea regarding the financial possibilities?"...and they said yes...I came out of the phone call with a really bad feeling about it. I work for a non profit now, my partner is a teacher, and I am going to a social work program. Avoiding massive debt is a reality in my life, as I'm sure never going to be raking the cash in! Let me know what kind of results you get from your conversation, because I'm tempted to write them off at this point.

I took them off my list shortly after the conversation. I would have loved to move to Seattle!

Let me know what kind of results you get from your conversation, because I'm tempted to write them off at this point. The Office of Financial Aid said that graduate students should get a financial aid package sometime in early April. There's no guarantee that it will be by April 8th, but it's something. Financial Aid only administers loans and a few grants, though. Fellowships and scholarships are through the SSW and we won't hear about those until May. I guess that's all we're going to get....
creativesocialworker Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 I got an email today directing me to website to find out that I was accepted at UCLA!! Pretty exciting, I'm now between USC or UCLA??? I had the same decision to make and went with UCLA. I was not very happy with USC's process. UCLA sent me financial aid info a couple days after accepting me but for USC you have to officially accept and send in a $200 deposit before they tell you how much aid you get in May...

creativesocialworker Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 when did u apply to USC? I submitted my USC application at the end of December
Jamitamaria Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Has anyone heard from SFSU's MFA department? I'm going a little crazy.
sasalm11 Posted March 27, 2011 Posted March 27, 2011 Applied to University of Michigan, Washington University in St. Louis, Bryn Mawr and Case Western Reserve University...the waiting is excruciating! Still haven't heard back from any yet.
RP1027 Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I just confirmed my acceptance to Fordham's MSW Program!!! Good luck to everyone!!!
knamel Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Erin: USC requires a response by the 29th? Does this mean if we have not heard from them yet we are rejected...? Still waiting on USC, CSUN, SF State...
Devyn Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Erin: USC requires a response by the 29th? Does this mean if we have not heard from them yet we are rejected...? Still waiting on USC, CSUN, SF State... I talked to USC admissions this week, they said the next two weeks we should know...its killin me.
hewhzw Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Erin: USC requires a response by the 29th? Does this mean if we have not heard from them yet we are rejected...? Still waiting on USC, CSUN, SF State... I don't think that necessarily means you are rejected. They make admission decisions through March to June depending on several decison rounds. I was told my application is awaiting review and I should receive a decision on later than the end of April. So it may be the same case to you. Call them and aks which stage your application are at.
erinl Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Erin: USC requires a response by the 29th? Does this mean if we have not heard from them yet we are rejected...? Still waiting on USC, CSUN, SF State... I would definitely not worry. Others are right; decisions are sent out in rounds based on when you applied, and everyone will have different decision response deadlines. You will hear soon enough!
meemala123 Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 is anyone waiting to hear back from UConn? I applied the last week of February and haven't heard back yet. Getting anxious!
