luckyducky Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hi all! I applied early decision to PSU's 2 year in-person MSW program. I was wait listed. They are now considering my application in the regular decision pool. In short, I have been waiting a looooooong time. At this late date I am preparing for the worst. (The worst would be a continuing wait list status; I see a plain rejection as an act of mercy). Have people heard back from the regular decision in-person program one way or the other yet? I'm trying to gauge my odds right now. This was the only program I applied to and I'm beginning to think that an online program might be smarter (cheaper/more work-friendly) anyways.... PS. Congrats to all those who have been accepted!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to all those who have been accepted!!! I applied for early decision as well, but I received my response Feb 13th. I turned it down pretty quickly after I heard back from UW about two weeks later. They were really hard to get ahold of and somewhat deflecting. The big hint I got was that I received a financial aid notice 24hr before my official letter. I'm sorry they're dragging you out so long!!!! It seems like that's somewhat common for them... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyducky Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 Congrats on UW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think Feb is when they told me I was wait listed for early decision. I guess that was a "decision" of sorts. I haven't filed my FAFSA yet so I feel like I wouldn't get one of those financial aid notices that people have talked about elsewhere. But that might be the denial talking. =p "Deflecting" is a good way to describe the interactions I have had with PSU..... They told me a few days ago that I would know by the end of this week. It's Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
