Spoken like a true social worker! You are spot on!
I am trying to focus on not speculating as we just do not know. During my interview I was told, similar to others, end of March beginning of April. For whatever reason that timeframe has changed and phone calls could being made for various reasons related to acceptance deadlines at other schools, etc. That being said I really do want to know either way.
Jersey social work, we do know some folks were called yesterday, that doesn’t look good for those of us who haven’t received any calls. Anyway I have learned a long time ago to always hope for the best and prepare for the worst so either way, I will be mentally good.
divineblessings77, do you know of anyone else who got a call yesterday besides the 1 from this thread?
Just the user yesterday that posted. No phone calls or emails today but hopeful about next week!
I can’t wait for this suspense to be over, need some kind of closure so I can plan ahead. I can wait 1 more week.
Well I have to assume we will hear next week. I will probably email them if I hear nothing by Wednesday as I agree with divineblessings77 regarding the need to plan ahead.
And the countdown begins…
10…9…8…7…6
I agree divineblessings77. I’m resisting urge to email the administrative coordinator who set up my interview. I am sure they are getting inundated with inquiry at this point.
I feel like it looks like I didn’t show interest because I never reached out to express continued interest. If I don’t hear by the end of the day today I may send an email!
If I do reach out tomorrow or Wednesday it will be because I truly want to get on with some next step career planning and some of those plans are predicated on getting in to this program.
This is not looking good. Emailed them today but got no response(usually get same day response) but got none today. I’m guessing they have already made their selections last week and will send out rejections later on or/and on some kind of waiting list. Has anyone gotten a response yet?
I am all for being positive but also thinking about things realistically. They likely made acceptance calls and mailed out letters for those who were accepted last week and will email rejections tomorrow.
I received a wait list email near end of day today.
Congrats jerseysocialwork! Could I ask what everyone’s background is? I’m just trying to get a sense of what I was lacking/where I could use some more work!
Congratulations ??? Jersey Social work.
Thank you. I would love to get a place but who knows.
Well, I guess it is safe to say that I am not in the running. Hearing nothing by now, the silence is speaking volumes.
Congratulations to all those made it in and also to those who tried. I want to encourage you to continue to keep trying and never giving up on your goals.
God Bless.
The verdict is in: I didn’t get in. Received an email late last night. Finally, at least I have closure.
For those of you still interested in pursuing your doctorate, Baylor University has a very good online program

As for me, I am moving on and striving to reach greater heights using this rejection as a fuel in my belly propelling me on(sorry for the dramatics?)
Anyway, wish you all the best. Stay strong and keep the dream alive!!!
Don’t let this get you down! As for me, I still have heard nothing!
