Graduate School Admission Results

has anyone heard from the Forensic Mental Health Counseling Masters? Any acceptances? I see the deadline to apply is April 1st but I'm not sure if they send out acceptance/rejection notifications before or after to those who applied early

Received rejection after interview.

conditional acceptance upon completing an undergrad stats course during my first year

Waitlisted! No complaints though, I spoke to a few of the other people who applied and they're crazy talented. Lucky to even considered this year (:

Email from admissions committee notifying that offers have been extended to top candidates and I have been waitlisted at this time.

Standard rejection letter.

Received a generic rejection letter stating that after much careful consideration, they have to reject the application due to the reduced pool of open spots at John Jay.

Haven't heard back anything so checked the website for status. Generic rejection letter.

Got an email + phone call from the executive officer of the program inviting me to meet with two faculty members, a program director, and a current student over zoom. Essentially four separate interviews. Nervous, but looking forward to it!

Given how serious the CUNY admissions issues seem to be after what TTPB said, honestly, anyone who wants answers may want to contact the Chronicle of Higher Ed and inform them of what's going on. Nothing forces academia to move more than media coverage.

The person who was told their application was incomplete by the admissions faculty requested feedback on their application and that information was part of that feedback. So, CUNY admissions knew there was an issue with their system prior to sending out interview invites and rejection letters? Shame. Thanks for the info.

To the John Jay poster: how did your friend find out that their entire app was not submitted to the admissions committee? Have such issues just been with John Jay or the entire CUNY system? Please let us know either here or on the forum.

The discrepancies at CUNY with the John Jay applications has to do with admissions. I know two people who had an issue with admissions, neither issue has been resolved, and admissions has stopped responding to one of my friends completely. One of the issues is that what was submitted to the admissions committee was not the full application that was submitted, but admissions won't comment on what happened accept to refute what the admissions committee stated. Other people at CUNY have been contacted but no help. Admissions is basically trying to ride out until offers are made because it's less illegal to mess up someone's application than to mess up an offer of admission so once those are out they can say oops there's nothing we can do. They're getting an attorney to compel them to answer something because admissions not responding at all is the most abhorrent treatment of someone I have ever seen and it's obvious they messed up their application. They need to be ashamed on so many levels. If the person who had the rejection letter sent to the wrong email were to make the same inquiries I have no doubt they would eventually ghost them, too. It seems like what they do when they mess up. Asking for a refund on the application would not be out of the question.

Rejected after interview. Not upset as after the interview day I didn't think this program was the best fit for me. Good luck to those who got in!!

I spoke to someone at UNR who said that JJ/CUNY is still figuring out funding so no interviews have been scheduled yet.
