Congrats on being accepted!! How long did it take to hear back from them? Thank you! I submitted my app I believe Jan. 11th. The last recommender submitted her letter on February 24th. I received my acceptance March 3rd! So from the last recommendation to the notification it took a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, still waiting. ): Do they send out actual mail or do you think it will be through e-mail? I almost went to get my masters about 3 years ago and all my acceptance stuff was through the post mail, but I wasn't applying to VCU during that time.

Everyone has told me email first (from the School of Social Work) and then mail from the Graduate School office. Which program did you apply to?

hanndema Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Has anyone had experience backing out of a program after accepting their admission offer? I accepted Boston College's offer through mail a few days ago and paid the deposit since they only gave us three weeks to reply. Just got an email from University of Michigan about my special program (I was an alternate before) and ended up receiving a position. I haven't completely decided I want to go to Michigan instead of Boston, but hypothetically, what would the process be for backing out of Boston? Just calling or is it more difficult than that? I know I won't get my admission deposit back... Ugh, I hate making decisions.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qt_dnvr Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I believe it would just be calling and maybe theyll ask you to write something/email to confirm in writing. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have already been accpeted to UPenn's program which was my first choice! I heard back after my interview very quickly. I was given a pretty generous offer but I need to wait on the other three before I make any decisions. Anyone apply to BU or Pitt and has heard anything back? I submitted my application to Pitt December 30th and received my acceptance end of January. A link will appear on the bottom of the application dashboard saying something like "a decision has been made..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LWil Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I think I just got accepted into VCU?! "I am pleased to inform you that you have been recommended for admission to the Virginia Commonwealth University Master of Social Work Program. You should receive an official admission notification letter from the VCU Office of Admissions via the United States Postal Service soon." How do they make it seem like you still haven't gotten it when you have?! And then the dean signed it saying he looks forward to meeting our cohort in the fall, but I applied for the ASP (which will begin in May), so I am just a nervous wreck and e-mailed them to make sure of everything! AH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
