costello Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 I just got my e-mail acceptance to UNC! Has anyone else heard back from them? The letter didn't mention anything about funding. Would that come later, or should I assume that I didn't get any?
kmw535 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 They might give out scholarships with admissions, but you can apply for funding (it's due March 31st and under the 'downloadable' form section) Did you apply for the two year MSW program? I haven't heard yet, and I've been waiting for the email!
costello Posted March 8, 2012 Author Posted March 8, 2012 I applied for the Advanced Standing program.
2012 MSW Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 I was really hoping to hear by Friday so I wouldn't have to suffer through the weekend. I've already received responses from other programs and this is the last one! Has anyone besides Costello heard a peep?
letigre Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 I applied to the 2-year program and still haven't heard. It's driving me crazy not knowing!
Min.Indy Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 When I checked the website for UNC, the admission department will send out notifications by April 15 for traditional students and March 15th for advanced standing students. Good luck everyone!
kmw535 Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 I called two weeks ago, and admissions said we should know by mid-March. I am hoping that means we will find out by Friday!
Whitty Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Yea that's what I was told too. I searched the website for the April 15th notification deadline and couldn't find it. I'm hoping it's this week or next.
Min.Indy Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Hey here's the link http://ssw.unc.edu/admissions/admissions_decisions
mtdvr Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Thanks for that! I'm just gonna go ahead and not expect to hear anything until mid April then... Oh well.
jgf85 Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Hi all. I e-mailed admissions today to see when decisions for the 2-year program could be expected, and I just received a reply. They are hoping to have everything out by next Tuesday, the 20th, and if not by then, then definitely by next Friday. Fingers crossed! letigre 1
Whitty Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 I saw two students submit rejection statuses on the results page. Both dated Monday and Tuesday of this week. Looks like decisions are rolling out. Best of luck to everyone!!
costello Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 Does anyone know if decisions about fellowships or assistantships are given at the time you find out if you were accepted, or is that a separate process? I haven't had any luck in getting a hold of anyone at UNC who can answer this for me.
kmw535 Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 I just saw two posts about UNC. I am hoping we will hear by Friday!
Min.Indy Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Got my acceptance today!!! Hoping everyone else receives good news as well!
Min.Indy Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Does anyone know if decisions about fellowships or assistantships are given at the time you find out if you were accepted, or is that a separate process? I haven't had any luck in getting a hold of anyone at UNC who can answer this for me. It's a separate process. Once everyone turns in the financial aid form on the 30th, I think they will tell everyone about funding.
Whitty Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Thanks Costello and congrats Min.Indy- now to complete these financial aid documents for both UW and UNC and see who shells out the most!! GAME ON!
costello Posted March 22, 2012 Author Posted March 22, 2012 Do you know when UNC makes decisions on funding? It kind of sucks being advanced standing because you have to start in the summer without knowing if you'll even get any. I am hoping that fellowship and assistantship decisions are made earlier than that. If only I could get someone from UNC to answer that question. I've been trying for 3 weeks. They are by far the most difficult school to work with as far as trying to get a hold of anyone.
Whitty Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 I have no idea. I know that the financial aid applications are due by April 1st so I'm thinking that by the end of April we should all know something about aid.
jgf85 Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 I received an e-mail at midnight last night telling me to check the website. The website linked to a generic acceptance letter from the graduate school, no decisions on funding yet! When I e-mailed them last week, they said they hoped to be done sending notices today. Good luck to those who are still waiting to hear!
mtdvr Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Akk, I am still waiting. Insanity ahead. Congrats to everyone who got in!
