  1. if your in the two year program your practicum counts as a summer course.
  2. Does anyone know if get your last OGS payment in may can you start your SSHRC in may as well?
  3. do you think you will make 100,000 a year upon graduation or soon? Also that kind of debt can very easily derail your career especially in IR. You won't be able to take that low paying think tank job in DC etc or work with an interesting NGO after graduation. Also considering you will be probably working in an expensive city so 100,000+ will impact your life in many ways, multiple roommates etc for the foreseeable future. I wouldn't unless I already had amazing IR experience and was mid career and knew for sure I could get a job paying atleast $70k+. IR is a field where you really have to pay your dues so the less debt your carrying the better.
  4. okay my award ends May 1st. Seems like its easy to change: http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Students-Etudiants/Guides-Guides/TriRTA-TriBFR_eng.asp#changes Change of Start Date Before commencing the award, the award recipient may request to change the start date to any other start date available to award recipients for that funding opportunity. To request an available start date other than the one selected at the time of application, send an email to the appropriate program contact.
  5. when does your other scholarship end? curious because this may apply to me too.
  6. does anyone know what those dates mean when you try to accept the award?
  7. does anyone know how to pay the deposit for UofT? I think I misplaced that page of the package.
  8. anyone heard anything back with regards to funding or OGS?
  9. Hi!! I also got admitted to the two year MSW program at UofT and I will be attending too. In the fall apparently there are a bunch of scholarships you can apply for. http://socialwork.utoronto.ca/current-students/financial-support/#internal
  10. York, Lakehead, and I believe McGill offers this as well.
  11. It's a one year degree that would give you a BSW degree but it would also make your MSW one year so you don't really lose time. The first year of a two year MSW is basically a post degree BSW.
  12. I wouldn't assume that. York tends to be the most competitive cause the class size is so small and everyone gets generous funding.
  13. Grades: Last two years I had one B+, 3 A+ and the rest of A's. I had an A in Research Methods. Experience: Two full years of part-time work studies in student engagement, 3 years of sitting on a provincial mental health youth focused board (through this experience I got to plan and attend many conferences, create policy documents, plan workshops on youth engagement etc), 1 year of volunteering with a youth sexual health organization, 1 funded summer international internship through my university's international office, a summer research internship at a youth non profit org, 1 year of residence programming, 1 year of sitting on a government related board as a youth, participant of my undergraduate research fair and some other things here and there. Sounds like alot but I was lucky to get a really good opportunity that led to other things. If people want to know where I find good opportunities or what specific organizations I was involved with message me!
  14. Does anyone have any idea how competitive each of the streams at UofT? I applied for Children and Families and later learned it's one of the more popular choices and now I'm scared lol.
  15. if you don't mind me asking what was your average when you were waitlisted for the two year program?
