Hi, Everyone I've recently been accepted into both McGill and U of T Master of Social Work programs with advanced standing. I'm really torn at this point. I feel like McGill has the better reputation but UofT has more practice classes than McGill. McGill's program includes completing a research project and 2 research classes whereas UofT has 1 research class and the rest are practical classes. My goal is to practice clinical social work. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Ami

I hear, "oh you're smart!! you'll definitely get in"............ FRUSTRATING considering I just got my wait listed letter yesterday

I just got my waitlisted letter yesterday and I feel devastated. I was pretty confident about getting in because I was overqualified in terms of the admissions last year. 30 ppl get into program and 30 ppl get on the wait list. I'm trying to be optimistic but it's been a huge blow... They don't shut the wait list down until July 30 so I could potentially have A LOT of waiting time ahead of me.. It all depends on now how many students accepted choose not to go anymore....

I'm 27 but have already completed 2 undergraduate degrees and finishing up another Masters. I think you'll be a bit younger but the class will have a range of ages. good luck!

I've applied to 3 graduate schools. My "safe" school, which I do understand is very competitive, has put me on the wait list. They allow 30 ppl into the program and have a wait list of 30. It's not their policy to tell students where they rank on the wait list. I haven't heard back from the other 2 schools yet but chances are I won't get an acceptance letter. Anyone else on the wait list or have positive stories about the wait list? I'm very disheartened now...
