Also one more thing how did you find out you got in? Did you get an email or a phone call or did you check online where you applied? Sorry for all the questions I'm very nervous and anxious and would like a heads up of what too look for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going crazy because it seemed to be taking forever, but they told me that some reviewers just take longer to review the application. I got an email from them telling me that a decision was rendered and that I could view my letter on the application website. I totally understand that anxious/nervousness! But seriously don't worry about it, you'll probably hear from them within the next couple of days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizalicious Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Thanks for the replies! I am waiting nervously with you all. Does anyone know if USC emails people telling them that a decision has been sent in the mail? Checking for an email before waiting to get home to my mailbox every night would save me some wrinkles.

rebr1127 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Hey guys- I have been accepted to the MSW programs at NYU, BU, and UPenn so far. I am anxiously waiting to hear back from Columbia soon. I have had the chance to visit and attend an info session/speak with current students at UPenn, Columbia, and BU but haven't done as much research on NYU. Does anyone have any insight on the NYU program? The admission at NYU has not really responded to me, and I was curious to speak to a current student who goes there about the experience. Right now my first choice would be Columbia but unfortunately I don't think I will hear back from Columbia until early March yet NYU and BU is asking me to make a decision/put down a security deposit by the end of this month so not sure what to do! I wonder if schools will grant extensions? Ideally I'd like to hear back from Columbia before I let the other schools know my decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basquiat81 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I literally just sent out all of my applications last week. I applied to CSUN (both on campus and off campus programs), USC, CSULB, and CSUF... I am soooo nervous! I thought I had a lot of experience and strong letters of rec.. but after reading other peoples specs, I'm seriously doubting myself. Since I applied to 5 programs.. I gotta get into one.. right... RIGHT?!?! I'm freaking out. How is everyone else dealing with their waiting process? I am new to this forum and stumbled upon your post. I'm there with you! I also applied to 5 programs (CSUN, CSULA, CSULB, PSU, & Univ. of Maryland) around mid January. I just received an acceptance letter to CSULA this past weekend. Have you received any news yet?

So far, the only news I have gotten is an acceptance into CSUF, unfortunately it is not my first choice so I'm waiting patiently for anything. I know 2 weeks ago CSULB sent out a round of acceptances as well.. but I didn't hear anything from them either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it's good to see it as at least we got accepted to 1 program so far if anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked BU for an extension yesterday and on the phone they said it would be fine, but when I emailed I was denied, so it doesn't look like they're granting extensions. They said I could put the money down and then not take the spot in the end, but obviously it's expensive to lose that money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunsetHarbor Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I also applied early action. I could have sworn that I read somewhere that we would be notified Feb 15. But I recently checked their website and now it just says notifications would be sometime in February. Anyone else have any updated info? I also applied early action to UW-Seattle day program and no news yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelle_ct Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 What's your first choice? I guess it's good to see it as at least we got accepted to 1 program so far if anything else. My first choice is CSUN.. I did my undergrad there and its a lot closer to home than Fullerton is so I could still live at home and work at my job on the weekends.. however I have a huge dilemma Fullerton would be my second choice.. but they need my decision by April 1st, and CSUN won't let us know until May... so I'm unsure of what to do.

I did my undergrad at CSUN and live in the area as well. It's also one of my top choices, but it seems tough to get in. You sill have time before April 1, but worse case scenario you accept CSUF by April and withdraw if CSUN accepts you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunsetHarbor Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Same here. I'm checking my email multiple times a day. They probably won't let us know until February 28th. I applied last year as well but had to delay a year, and reapply. Last year they sent a personal email with a giant "Congratulations" in opening text. So you don't have to worry about checking the online application system (though I keep doing it anyways).... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard back in September and am waiting on about 5 other schools, but deposited to NYU just to keep my spot.. it is a good school and so, so pretty! (not sure if you're familiar with Washington Square park) I also have a friend who graduated from NYU and said the professors are heavily clinical professional SW's (which is my concentration) so it's a great school for clinical.

Did you apply early? Has anyone else heard back yet? I haven't heard from them... Does anyone know if they are notifying people as they are being reviewed or all at once? If it is the latter, then thats not a good sign.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
