I've also asked about a Facebook group but no one has made one yet. 

 

In terms of a thesis, I am also interested in doing one, but I've heard that it's difficult to get approval through the FSW. Not many professors want to oversee a student taking on a thesis, so try to strengthen your ideas and really show your passion. Hopefully you can do one!

Want to DM me your information (so I can find you on facebook) so I can make a group? Alternatively I can send you mine! If not that's totally okay!

Thank you so much for letting me know! Hopefully we can find someone!

Congrats! Do you know if there's a group running already for those accepted?

Are you attending for sure? Where are you coming from?

Congrats! I'm also going to Laurier, but I can't find a group on facebook. Did you end up finding any groups to join?

Also, just as a reminder, don't forget to send in your deposit! I almost forgot, which would have been awful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On a side note, is anyone planning on doing a thesis? Is it even feasible in the time frame? Did anyone/does anyone get CGS funding for social work research? It seems really confusing and I'm not even sure if this is looked at by the department or university as a whole (does each department get a certain amount to give out? Or is it just a mass among the entire university) - asking for next year, I know the deadlines are farrrrrrrrrr past and I'm not on the ball with it (oops...)

with U of T being such a competitive school, I don't see many people rejecting their acceptances. Unless they are more interested in funding and places like York are more attractive to them (assuming they got into both). 

Haha. I rejected them today so one of waitlist applicants will be notified soon :).

Okay so had some time to kill and I went ahead and made a list of us who are wait-listed at UofT. If your name is missing, let me know. This is kinda fun to track.
