Acceptance Rates at Programs?

[ljaffe19]

Hi! I'm new here but I've started my applications for the Fall of 2013 for MSW programs. I'm a little nervous about getting in somewhere. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get detailed admission stats for programs?

Here are my stats:

Overall GPA: 3.1 (Last 60 Credit hours is a 3.54)

Majors: Double Major with a BS in psych and BA in english from Drake Univ. in Iowa

LORs: I will have very strong letters, from both professors and supervisor's including the polk county CASA coordinator, director of an agency, and professors from both my majors including my advisor

Experience: 1 year as an intern at a social service agency, co-running and running group therapy sessions. 11 months as a CASA advocate, volunteering to represent abused/neglected children in court, 5 months of working at a shelter for troubled youth and 3 months (summer job) working as a play therapist for a boy who has autism.

Programs I'm applying: Penn, UIC, U of C, Univ. of Maryland- Baltimore, BU, Smith, UConn, Fordham, Rutgers, and Bryn Mawr.

What do you think my odds are of getting in? I will have all of my apps completed by the first deadline.

Any help would be appreciated

Hey ljaffe,

I have also applied to schools for Fall 2013 and waiting to hear back! With the information you gave, I believe that you have a high chance of getting into a two year program. I have also applied to UMB, Salisbury and Stony Brook..Here's to waiting!
