I did not end up accepting the offer so cannot really offer much insight into their acceptance process other than it being ~holistic~ and looking at all of the parts of your application. I think the challenging part for the Calgary application was the statement/study plan which was so open ended, so if you were able to turn that into something that flows it bodes well!

I was accepted to 1 year clinical stream at Calgary last year and got my acceptance email on Feb. 13th - so you likely do not have too long to wait!

I'll be going to Waterloo - good luck to you too!

Just declined my offer today - I hope you get the spot!

Congrats to you as well! Will you be accepting their offer? My letter's up now and I'm strongly considering it.

Congratulations! That's wonderful news!

Hey! My Quest changed today to admitted as well. So thrilled & relieved! Were you able to view your letter? The "view" option has appeared for me but when I click it nothing seems to happen.

No, I'm currently at Dalhousie. I am not sure yet where I will go but Western definitely seems like a great program! I am still waiting on Waterloo as well, is anyone not? I haven't noticed any acceptance yet. I'm thinking next week.

Yes I'm doing the 1 year! They had sent us all an email in January saying we would hear back the first week of March and were true to their word - maybe they sent you something similar?

I was accepted into the 1 yr MSW at Western on Friday! 2 emails sent a few minutes apart - only 5 business days to accept/decline, but exciting!

Thanks for contacting them! Good to hear some (vague) details from Waterloo.

What are you planning to do about this? I need to accept their offer by Monday (27th) and don't want to pay $500 to reserve a spot I may not take. I replied to the email earlier this week to ask for an extension and they passed it off to someone higher up to see if it's possible but I haven't heard anything yet.

Hey! I was actually accepted to Carleton's MA Psych Program back in the day (circa 2014) before I decided to pursue Social Work. I got my acceptance email on February 28th and I believe I had 6 weeks to accept my offer (which I then extended, deferred, and eventually declined - I am the worst!). Not sure if they are still working on a similar timeline, but if so I'd expect to hear in the next two weeks.

My understanding is that "the waitlist will be closed on July 31st" means that anyone still on the waitlist at that time will be removed (i.e., not accepted). There will be movement once people start turning down their acceptances! I see you've applied to Waterloo as well - any idea when/how we'll hear back from them?

GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! I'm happy to report that I received an acceptance today (~6pm Atlantic) via email to Calgary's 1 Year Clinical Specialization. So relieved. I hope you all start receiving news in the not-so-distant future!
