NadaJ Posted January 21, 2011 Author Posted January 21, 2011 I just checked my email and saw an email from the school I applied to and my heart made a big thud - then I realized I had requested my password coz I had forgotten it. LOL. Crazymaking. Not crazy at all! I would have probably yelped or jumped out of my chair or some other dramatic stunt. I jump every time I see the school I applied to, the program I applied to, or any school I even looked at over the past 6 months, appear on the results page. That's crazy.
evilpupil Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 oh god. youguys have no idea. i applied to cal and uw. (i'm currently living in seattle). I go from being in absolute despair and feeling hopeful multiple times a day. I seriously need a therapy or something.. lol!
looniac Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 oh god. youguys have no idea. i applied to cal and uw. (i'm currently living in seattle). I go from being in absolute despair and feeling hopeful multiple times a day. I seriously need a therapy or something.. lol! Hang in there! I totally understand the feeling and have the same fluctuations in outlook. The not knowing is the worst part of it, I'm sure.
Waves Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 Waiting is driving nuts. Could barely concentrate at work (it involves a lot of writing) and finding myself either daydreaming or despair-ing. Having a smart phone doesn't help. I check my email mulitple times even when driving. :-( I want this agony to end!!!
jct348 Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I am in the same boat as many of y'all... I've only applied to UChicago/SSA's MSW/PhD program and the fellowship to remain at The Family Institute for another two years. I'm really expecting not to get either, but so nervous to hear!
odugrad2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 New to this forum, and wanted to see how everyone's apps are going! I am sending out my application to VCU today, is anyone else applying there? I have seen hardly anyone on discussion boards who plans to go there. I am also finishing up my NYU app. It is my first choice, but the price tag to match is intimidating!
NadaJ Posted January 31, 2011 Author Posted January 31, 2011 Is anyone else excited that tomorrow is February??
looniac Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Is anyone else excited that tomorrow is February?? YES! I am supposed to receive an early admission decision packet "by the beginning of February"... so of course I have been watching the mailbox like a hawk for the last few days!
MSW11 Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 LOL. I know the feeling. BU said I should receive my acceptance letter and financial aid package within two weeks. Wednesday will be two weeks. I thought two weeks sound like a joke and would receive it in a few days...nope...they really meant two weeks. I'm starting to think it will never arrive.
2011 MSW Hopeful Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 New to this forum, and wanted to see how everyone's apps are going! I am sending out my application to VCU today, is anyone else applying there? I have seen hardly anyone on discussion boards who plans to go there. I am also finishing up my NYU app. It is my first choice, but the price tag to match is intimidating! I submitted my online application to VCU today and the supplemental materials last week! It's not my top choice because I'm really looking for a city with reliable public transportation, but it has a great rep and I'm in-state, so that part's appealing. Finishing touches on NYU and Hunter College applications tonight. I applied to 9 schools, so it's been a lot of time and money! So nervous/excited to hear back.
MSW11 Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Just got an acceptance from University of Michigan! submitted in mid-late November for early decision. Woo-hoo!
MSW11 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Thanks! I applied to a less impacted concentration, so don't worry - I am probably hearing a little early for this reason.
looniac Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 2nd day of February, still no response... Oh, mr. mailman, when will the decision arrive?!??
looniac Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 2nd day of February, still no response... Oh, mr. mailman, when will the decision arrive?!?? 1st day of February... I'm just a bit anxious!
Waves Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 I'm thinking, "Reject me already!!!" I'd rather know that I'm rejected than having to wait forever!
looniac Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 I'm thinking, "Reject me already!!!" I'd rather know that I'm rejected than having to wait forever! Don't think like that! Think instead... they are deliberating on how much of a scholarship they would like to offer me!
MSW2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Hello All Applied to 7 CSU's and 2 UC's MSW programs. called SFSU, they said around 450 applied, 30 will be accepted UCLA said over 400 applied MSW, 100 total will be accepted (both MSW, Phd) Berkely said I should be hearing their dicision soon since I applied for the gerontology concentration. Probably won't hear from CSU for 2 months, Waiting.........

evilpupil Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 YOU CALLED ALL OF THEM??? I wonder if I should call them too... good god. I'm so nervous. guys
mellowfe Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 good god. I'm so nervous. guys you all need to chill. go with the flow.
MSW2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 good god. I'm so nervous. guys I called UCB, SFSU and UCLA only and asked for the numbers. Compared to SFSU you have a decent chance of getting accepted to UCB or UCLA. Chill and Good Luck!
MSW11 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Got to love how SFSU has a 7% admittance rate. That app was a waste of time...I wouldn't be surprised if more than 450 actually applied. They had said at their info session that over 700 people applied last year. Good news is that it is the end of the week and February is a short month! dubi 1
MSW11 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I didn't mean your app btw. I also applied to SFSU. I don't think I'll be getting in...it was one of the tougher applications too...
