Canadian Universities MSW. The waiting game 2015 admissions
Fenris70 replied to smpalesh's topic in Social Workers Forum
I e-mailed them and this was their response: "The first round of offers for admission have been completed. As we have received a few declines additional offers of admission have been sent out. Anytime a new offer is processed applicants are given two weeks to respond. We will continue to send out additional offers as space permits in the program. The overall number of positions is 30 students. This process can be a bit timely and take us until May or June to complete. On the other end of things applicants who did not rank very high have already been notified that the program is full. The best thing you can do is continue to track your status online through SIS. All applicants will receive a notice of decision before this process is complete. " -

Does anyone know how long Windsor University's social work e-mail usually takes to respond back to e-mails? I e-mailed to ask about the 2-year program and if all acceptances have been sent out already (I noticed in the search results function that some people didn't hear until mid-May on their results in previous years). It seems not many people on these forums have applied there, but if anyone has any information that would be extremely helpful (I have another offer that I have to accept by May 1 for a college, but I'm holding out until I hear back from Windsor). -

If you don't mind me asking, did they give a deadline for accepting their offer? I haven't heard anything yet so I am curious on if they are waiting for their first round of people to accept/deny it first or what. -

Just got a letter in the mail from U of T - rejection. Does anyone know when we should all be hearing back from Windsor? -

This is is very true. I was talking to a professor in the MSW program and she told me that a lot of the students actually come from well-off financial backgrounds (e.g. they had support from their parents throughout their undergraduate). She was just telling me this because I was so curious as to how people got so much volunteer experience coming out of their undergrad - especially with full time-studies and having a job. -

Have you heard anything back from Windsor yet? Or in general, has anyone heard anything from them? -

I have officially been rejected everywhere except Windsor and U of T now. Should I have any hope? Lots of people have seemed to heard something one way or another from all these schools, so I'm not sure why I have no update yet from UofT at least. -

IF you do not mind, would you mind sharing your social work experience/volunteer experience briefly? I don't know how to use the search tool in these forums to see if you already mentioned it. If you did, I apologize. -

I need to try to constrain myself from constantly checking these forums, especially since it's the weekend! Anyone else have that problem? -

I would like some advice as well. I feel it is very unlikely I will get accepted anywhere from a lack of experience in social service agencies. I applied to colleges for the Social Service diploma as well in order to gain more experience before applying again. Would anyone recommend this, or would it be just as smart to work in a job not related (most likely an entry-level job) and volunteer at a few places to build up my experience? Any help would be extremely appreciated, whether on the forums or through private message. -

Like someone else said, I think if they already reviewed your application that Angela would probably give the same generic response. Let's hope for the best though! I wish if they allowed re-submissions of things like resumes that they would make it widely known, it is not fair that only a small portion knows about it through these communities. That's just my inner striving for equality speaking out though Good luck to all of us who have had no acceptances yet! There is still some hope! No news is no news! -
