Arizona State University (ASU) Master of Social Work (MSW)

[mwahaism]

I submitted my application in mid December but haven't heard anything at all yet. Has anyone else applied here and heard anything?

The wait is killing me!

[We regret to inform you]

i applied to ASU but in a different department. I have also heard nothing. I'd say that's not a great sign at this point. My guess, at least for my department, is that they wait to send out rejections once all offers have been accepted. So I'd guess that since i haven't heard anything yet that i'm either waitlisted or rejected but that i won't know for a while.

Of course, I could be completely wrong.

As a student here at ASU who also recently applied for an MS I can tell you that they're pretty darn slow about the master's admissions. They have a tendency to accept students on a rolling basis and things are sort of a mess here for the time being (many changes happening). Bearing this in mind, I would just stay calm.

Thanks for your reply! I found out that no acceptances have been given out for my department and location yet, so I'm feeling better about it now! Like you mentioned though, I might be waitlisted and notified later. So I still won't know for a while either, best of luck to you

Thanks for your reply! Yes, I guess they are so slow. I actually found out that they haven't sent out any admissions for my department and campus yet, and I have to keep waiting possibly into April. Thanks for your words, I am trying to stay calm and not be so impatient!

I received an email on Feb 20th with an acceptance letter attached. I applied at the end of January. Good luck!

I applied there as well in a different department. What I have found is that it such a huge university that the wheels of bureaucracy turn very slowly. Don't lose heart yet.

I applied to the MSW at ASU as well and haven't heard anything. I've contacted the office person twice (a month has passed since the date I was given) and each time she says she's trying to get decisions from the board. I have a lot of commitments in limbo waiting to hear back from them so even if it's a rejection I really just need to know!
