Sometimes "non-ivy league" schools are the worst. I choose an expensive private school to go to for my MSW and the main reason was because Hunter College, which has an excellent reputation for Social Work only lets a select few in to their program because of the simple fact that the tuition is so cheap. When I attended the open house the admissions people "talked down to everyone" and made it clear that they were only going to accept "the cream of the crop" which I think is completely ridiculous because as we all know, book smarts and high GPA's don't mean a whole lot when it comes to people skills in the social services field. I know your bummed but this may be a blessing in disguise. You are probably better off going elsewhere. Who knows what else you'd be up against if you were a student in this program which obviously doesn't seem well-run.
