I got into U of T too! Unfortunately, I don't think the $500 deposit for Ryerson is refundable. http://www.ryerson.ca/graduate/fees/ But on the plus side, we got into U of T! woo!
Nope. I'm starting to get really frustrated. I called earlier this week and the guy who answered said we should know this week and that the decision would be posted online. However, I recall people saying that acceptances came in the mail and rejections came via e-mail.... nothing about RAMSS. Maybe someone else can call in and ask? It was an anonymous call, so it won't affect anything.
I just called Ryerson regarding the advanced standing applicants. The person who answered the phone said we'll find out this week and the decision will be posted online.
Jax14,
I feel as though you have described exactly how I feel. It's somewhat comforting to know that i'm not alone but like many others have said, don't throw in the towel just yet. I've been told by someone who was initially wait-listed last year (but then got in) that U of T accepts a lot of people from the waiting-list. So here's to us, hang in there
Does anyone know how many people get in for each stream? (U of T Advanced Standing). I've been wait-listed for the health and mental health stream. Straight A's in my final year. Completed the Research Methodology course with an A. Two social work placements through my BSW and various other employment/volunteering/leadership positions. I've also done a lot of research (social work, psychology and designed and conducted my own research study). Trying to put the pieces together. Any info regarding the wait-list and whether or not people actually get accepted afterwards would be greatly appreciated
Agreed. While snail mail takes forever, it's nice to have something tangible. As for U of T, I have also heard of a rejection letter that came yesterday for the advanced standing program. Hopefully we'll all hear soon enough.
