Hey! Congratulations! I also just received my acceptance off the waitlist for Jan 2021 start in Peel! I am so thrilled! Will you be in Peel? I would also love to know anyone else we will be studying with.

Hi all, I graduated from my BSW in 2018, and have had full time employment for 1.5 years since graduation. I had mid-high 80's in my last 2 years of school. This is my third year applying to my MSW, the process is tedious and often disappointing it seems. The first year I applied (while still completing my BSW) I applied to UofT - waitlisted, King's - waitlisted, U of Manitoba - denied. Last year, I only applied to UofT and was waitlisted again. This year, I have already submitted my application for Laurier online May 2020 start, and I plan on applying to UofT mental health and health stream, as well as Renison and Laurentian. I have experience working in both a youth and a women's shelter, I worked full time at CMHA for 9 months, now have been working over 10 months full time as a Social Worker at a specialized psychiatric hospital. I have taken multiple professional development courses at both UofT and Laurier to further my education and specialize. I am about to start a training opportunity within my workplace on CBT. I hope these factors all strengthen my application. My expertise and passion certainly lies in mental health and policy. I don't have the largest amount of volunteer work just due to the nature of the hours I work, however I do sit on a volunteer board of directors and had significant volunteer work during my BSW. Does anyone have insight on the numbers of applicants/acceptances to Renison, Laurier or Laurentian? I know UofT only accepts about 50-60 into mental health with 500+ applicants to that stream solely. Best of luck to everyone, I am looking forward to finishing these applications and hearing how results turn out for everyone!

Hey everyone, I was waitlisted at King's for 1-yr MSW, No news yet from U of T for 1-yr MSW (not 'invited'), And I've applied to the University of Manitoba for the advanced standing MSW as well, haven't heard anything. Has anybody else applied here? Also, is anyone aware of how many students King's waitlists? Especially because they only accept 15 to their program? Thanks and congratulations/good luck to all!!

Haven't heard anything yet from U of T. Crossing my fingers and toes! Best of luck Anybody know how many U of T accepts to each stream?
