kypie Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 Alright y'all THIS HAS TO BE THE WEEK! Good luck to all of you! Kat_MSW2018, lganssle and MSW_bound2018 2 1
honeynut Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 For everyone who has been accepted, how long did they give you to decide?
MSW_bound2018 Posted February 26, 2018 Posted February 26, 2018 I left my phone when I left my apartment earlier in the hopes that I'd return to an email at 5, but no such luck...the wait is K I L L I N G me Kat_MSW2018, lganssle and honeynut 3
Kat_MSW2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 We’ve gotta be the most impatient but supportative group yet haha. I wonder what the future applicants are going to think of us! I really hope this is THE week for us. Good luck everyone! I HOPE TO SEE YOU IN NY EITHER WAY. (PS. Should we start a MSW NY thread? To stay connected? Columbia, NYU, Hunter (and the other NY MSW) folks?
JonoDuncan Posted February 27, 2018 Author Posted February 27, 2018 Just a little insight that I thought I'd share. I have a friend who is at Columbia right now. She said that two of the four or five faculty that review applications quit (I don't know when), and that is why it is taking longer than usual to review the applications. They are short handed. boyers2 and MSW_bound2018 2

That explains a lot! That must be tough getting through all of these with just two people.
boyers2 Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 Other people are still waiting on a decision from Columbia right? I've heard back from NYU and Fordham, so I'm just waiting to hear back from Columbia.

Thanks for the information. I’m sure a bunch of us would go help them read apps ? MSW_bound2018 and Kat_MSW2018 2
KCR Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 I just got off the phone with the director of admissions and he said priority deadline applications should hear by the end of this week or next week....another later date, but hopefully we will hear sooner than that! boyers2 1

APARK Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Hi did any hear from Columbia? I am worried since my application was completed on Jan 30

I am worried since my application was completed on Jan 30 Many of us who applied in November still haven't heard. I wouldn't worry that you haven't heard yet, but unfortunately it might mean you have a while until you know :/

The person I spoke to told me that applications are reviewed by 3 people and that priority applicants WILL hear back by March 1. I submitted my application on Dec 1st 2017, but my application completed on Jan 1st 2018 because of the transcript. But I haven't heard from them yet.. Does it mean I am more likely to get rejected?
