Waiting list social work masters

Roberta88

Hi all,

I just got a letter from Ucd an been informed I've been out on a waiting list,I feel like I've tried doing everything I can to pull off the interview and was even in with them for 40 mins.

Anyway wondering if anyone knew anything about their waiting lists and how long it is and the likelyhood of getting in???

Any help would be great as I'm so anxious I really wanna get in!!

Hey Rob,

I'm not sure about UCD (as i didnt apply here) but in UCC they told me you had an extremely high chance of getting offered a place if on a waiting list!!!

I would reckon you wont know until the deadline date where the people decide to accept/decline their place. I am still waiting to hear...ekkkk!

Goodluck!!!

I found out today that I am on the waiting list for Trinity, anyone have any experience with the likelihood of getting an offer if you are on the waiting list?

Don't have any experience on it but I do know the only put 10 people on their waiting list and all depends on who accepts/declines their offer but I heard they took 5 people off the waitin list last year if u ring them they might be able to give u any idea of where u are on the list

Thanks for the reply! I called them today and they said they have 15 people on the waiting list but couldn't/wouldn't tell me where I was on it! I really want to get it so fingers crossed!!!

Don't think it matters as both are really the same think its really a personal decision

judycoup

Thanks!! I HATE DECISIONS!

fortunekb

any idea when NUIG will tell us...

theskin

Can someone please let me know if or when they hear from Trinity regarding the waiting list?

Hi theskin,

I'm in the same boat as you! I rang them last week and they said to me that the people for the waiting list hadn't been ranked yet as they were still waiting for references for some of those on the list, and that they would know in two weeks (which is next week).

I'm going to call them tomorrow anyways to check anyways as I've to accept UCD before next Tuesday

ainewk

i rang nuig today,no offers will be out untill after easter

sexyfirepants

Trinity have their waiting list ranked so if you ring them now, they will tell you where on the list you are.

Roberta88

Does anyone know when Ucd start ringing people about offers cause today's the deadline for first offers so I'm like anxiety alert just dying to know when they start ringing people on the waiting list!

theskin

Thanks! I will give them a buzz tomorrow!

Hey the nuig offers are out now

sexyfirepants

Is it by post or online?

Roberta88

Hey it's updated on pac

sexyfirepants

Ah ok, thanks Mine hasn't updated yet... Did you find out if you got UCD yet?

Roberta88

No not yet and I'm driving myself mad but in weird news I got galway!which is the one I wasn't too arsed about so now I don't know what to do

sexyfirepants

I'd say that UCD will get back to you before the deadline for Galway.. Can't understand why they don't just have the offers all in one day, it'd make more sense than all this waiting!

Congrats on getting Galway btw!

Roberta88

Your preaching to the choir sister!ive been saying the same thing then at least for the waiting list and all you'd all know and it wouldn't be as awkward and all!yeah so dunno and I cant even ring the girl in Ucd cause she's off today to see what the story is!as you can tell I'm a tad impatient ha

sexyfirepants

Ha! I don't blame you! It's a ridiculous set up they have..

Roberta88

What about you are you hoping for galway?or have u applied else where

sexyfirepants

I've already got UCD and accepted, was hoping for trinity but was fairly down the waiting list so didn't take the risk to wait for Galway. Just curious to see if they'd give an offer, it was the only place I applied to last year and didn't get it..
