esp.msw Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 They can't give me details on what my rank is until they've read through all the applications. So I'll just have to wait and hope it scored high enough. Good luck to everyone still waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamburger Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Hey all, I've been lurking from time to time and thought since I hadn't heard by now, I must have gotten declined. Still no email, but if you haven't checked, check your applicant self-service site. I got an update. Good luck to you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtluvmg Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I still haven't heard back and I applied on 02/15. I don't know if thats a good thing or a bad thing. I wonder how much longer I have to wait to hear back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamburger Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) No worries. You all should be hearing back soon. My app arrived a little late (on the 18th). I mailed it the weekend before and it got stuck at the post office. I'm still waiting on my email, but since my status updated, I'm guessing they are likely at the tail end of the process now.

alex bo balex Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I just did the "self service" status check and it said I've been admitted. I haven't received any correspondence from them (postal or email), so it was a bit of a surprise. I also can't login to my portal to see the admission letter, so I'll have to wait to hear back from the helpdesk before I can confirm for sure. I have kind of mixed feelings about this. I've already accepted and am planning to attend CSULA, which I'm happy about (and have been extremely impressed by the efficiency of their communication)...but I also know a lot of people hold the Long Beach program in high regard, which gives me the tiniest bit of "what if?" feeling. I think if I'd been accepted to CSULB earlier, I would have been more torn in my decision--but now that it's so late in the game, I can't see any reason to change course. I guess I'm just confused about why they're taking so long to get back to everyone, since people have to start making plans and everything. Anyway, good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back! I know this process is pretty stressful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamburger Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Congrats Alex! The schools are the same rank I think. A lot of people tend to like the LB campus because of the area (at least from my experience.) I had the same problem with not being able to log in the portal, so please update if that resolves. Best wishes to you wherever you decide to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this process is pretty stressful. I think it's all about preference. I didn't apply to csula this time, and it was basically because they don't offer the concentration or classes that lb does. CSULA offers the forensic track, which no other nearby campus does, I thinK, except maybe for usc. But csula doesn't offer the pps credential, which is my interest. So it's really about what your interests and professional goals are. Good luck with your choice! Edited May 24, 2015 by saidypooMSW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happiness_System Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hello, I just received an email notifying me that my application has been placed on 'pending status'. Hoping for the best. Good luck, everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamburger Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 It said I was recommended for the program and admission was contingent on me submitting the things on my checklist. That might be because I am still enrolled in my BA. I got the official email yesterday along with my financial aid package. It was for the 3 year program, which was my second choice. I'm assuming it is because the 2 year spaces may be filled. I am still thinking hard on it, although this is the only program I applied to. But I'm so glad the wait is over and I can start planning!

dreamcatcher725 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I got my pending email this morning. I'm pretty sure I was one of the last apps because I sent it on the last day. not sure if I even care at this point, but I know others are interested in the general process, so I thought I'd share. good luck guys Happiness_System 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamcatcher725 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 @happiness - thanks so much yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm going to Dominguez Hills.

I'm ready for this whole thing to be over so we can all just get to working and learning. this stress these past few months has been far from enjoyable.

Happiness_System Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Hello, I don't remember if I included the 3-year option as a secondary choice (2-year is my first). As I was just put into pending status, I'm a bit anxious and want to take any option available to attend since CSULB is my top choice. I was thinking about e-mailing CHHS-SW to ask about it but wanted to consult you lovely folks about it first. What do you think? Would it seem clumsy or selfish of me to want to make a change to my application? Would an email like this be annoying and desperate? Would it somehow benefit me by showing my interest in the program? I know that I am totally overthinking things......... THANKS!

socialwork2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Mine was waiting for me in my inbox when I woke up this morning. I'm ok with it. Everything happens for a reason. I guess I was meant to go to USC. I had started their program last fall and took a leave. I already told them I would be returning a few weeks ago. At least the wait is over now.
