Emlee13256 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Hey everyone, I applied to Smith MSW early acceptance and everything was due January 5. I know it's too early to think that they will get back to me soon, but just in case, has any one else applied and have they heard? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljaffe19 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Not yet. I hear that they send out all their early decision letters at once and by the end of the first week of February. I applied as well and am anxiously waiting!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jbud Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Yes, they said they'll send packages by the end of first full week of February... so anxious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emlee13256 Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 I emailed someone in admissions who told me that they will begin mailing out the decision letters "by the end of the week" and that "applicants may expect to receive their letters by the second week in february" so I'm not sure if it will come this week or next, just heads up!

Olathe Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I got in! I received my letter on Friday the 8th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socialworkhopeful Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Congratulations ljaffe & olathe! I am curious if you guys got any funding? You don't need to reveal actual amounts (unless you are okay with it). I am just wondering how generous they were with funding this year. Like I said, I did not receive any funding and am really struggling with justifying the cost of paying full tuition and living expenses (even though I love Smith!), especially because I applied to other schools, including a really good in-state msw program that would be half the tuition. Agh...decisions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljaffe19 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I did not get any funding but I didn't apply for financial aid through them, I was hoping for a merit-based scholarship and I did not receive one But, I love the program so might look to outside sources!

Olathe Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I found Smith to be pretty generous. Of course I would much prefer a free ride but I feel any assistance is a gift in a MSW program. There is another program in the area that is upwards of $53,000 with no support whatsoever, just student loans and is nowhere near the reputation of Smith.

Mingus1 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Hi, I realize this is an old thread... Is anyone on this forum these days- waiting for early acceptance decision for June 2015? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeeandlipstick Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I applied early decision and had an interview 2 weeks ago. Waiting patiently for that letter to arrive : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mingus1 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I applied early decision and had an interview 2 weeks ago. Waiting patiently for that letter to arrive : ) I wasn't interviewed; I hope that isn't a standard procedure for all admitted students. Do you know if that is the case? The letter should be arriving any day now... Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeeandlipstick Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I wouldn't worry about not having an interview. It's definitely not the norm. Thanks, good luck to you too!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rooibos123 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Me too! Are any of you thinking through the costs of Smith? Is it worth it to you considering how little MSWs make? I'm trying to decide where to go, partly based on what kind of loan burden I can handle; I would be 40K in debt after Smith. If you're one of those lucky people whose parents can pay for things, dont let me know, I will be jealous. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
