<p>PS:</p>

<p>Hey if anyone was accepted in Las Vegas pm me!!!</p>
<p>@Mzplatypus, I’m heading to Oklahoma as well! I was 3DL. Feel free to add me on Facebook! My email is kashworth21@********** :)</p>
<p>That’s gmail. The board edited me haha.</p>
<p>Attention: Cali4niaDreamer…I got your pm, but it won’t let me pm you back because I am new and don’t have a minimum of 15 posts. Thank you for your support and positive comments. I hope we do attend the same institute, mine will be in Mississippi. I would love to chat more with you and my name is Erica! :)</p>
<p>Accepted! </p>
<p>Secondary social studies in Mississippi Delta!! :)</p>
<p>Who will be at the Philadelphia institute?</p>
<p>@Cali4niaDream and WishingforTFASD, I am pretty sure all three of us will be at the same institute in Mississippi! My names Rob, btw. Look forward to meeting you both in June!</p>
<p>I’ll be at the Delta institute as well! My name’s Katie. Feel free to PM if you’d like to chat more. So excited for this you guys… I have a feeling it’s going to be an incredible experience!</p>
<p>I think it is going to be an incredible experience as well! Today is the first time I’ve ever been to this site before- so I actually have no idea what PM means, haha.</p>
<p>Oh no worries, haha, PM just means private message! You can click on individual usernames and send them direct messages… however, I am pretty sure you have to have a minimum of 15 posts or something to respond to one someone sends to you.</p>
<p>Erica, Katie, Rob and DiversityD22 - we should stay in touch since we’ll all be there! It seems like a lot of us from 4DL got Delta placements - I think that’s great. I’m excited to learn more about it, and it seems like a place that really needs our support! I was reading in our materials about how private schools have basically re-established segregation in public schools there, and how almost all the children we’ll be serving are African American. That really inspires me to bring everything I can possibly offer so they aren’t missing anything by not going to the private school.</p>
<p>Katie I tried to Facebook msg you, but I’m not sure if I found you. (A few with your same last name). Send me an email. I’m going to send a PM to the other three with my email, and if you each send me an email back, I’ll send out one message to the group and that way we can all be in touch. Does anyone know if there is already a group on here or FB for Delta Institute or region?</p>
<p>I’m considering getting my own housing outside of the dorms. Boarding my two big dogs would cost more than a rental probably would, so I might as well put the money towards having them with me. If I can find somewhere, that is. If anyone else happens to be in the same situation (or just interested in having a bigger, private room not in the dorms), let me know. Does anyone out there know anything about finding rental properties in rural Miss? I’m lost without Craigslist (I already tried…there’s like one listing and it’s scary)…</p>
<p>@TFASWgirl - Gotta admit I was kinda hoping we could work together being fellow social workers, and I’m a little jealous you get to be in NC after Katie made it seem so darn awesome …but I’m really excited for you!! Your background will serve you really well in special education. What institute will you go to?</p>
<p>Hi there! I am in group 5, and waiting to find out if I will be invited to the Final Interview…next week seems soooo far away! I had a good experience on the phone interview. I have a few questions about what happens next. If any of you who have been accepted are able to come down from the clouds long enough, would you educate us in group 5 as to what else is going to happen from now until acceptance (trying to be positive without setting myself up for disappointment)… we would certainly appreciate it! Thanks and congrats to those who have been accepted.</p>
<p>I have seen some reference to two locations that do not appear on the website. Alaska and Portland. Why are some people referencing them? Is the Portland the one in Maine or Oregon? Are these regions listed on the list that is on the Preference Form but not on the lists of Where We Work? Please enlighten…</p>
