I am too scared to check ACORN today so if anyone checks today, let me know if it has been updated

 

 

I checked and no luck for me. I am trying to accept that and let's wait for the mail!

No change in Acorn for me. Sad...I bet it means I am not accepted

I just feel like I cannot wait 3 more weeks for U of T. Hope the result comes out this week though I feel like the chance is not high

Haha! We're getting quite the glute workout this week, at least .

Results will be posted on the main dashboard page of ACORN first (barring very rare exceptions when a couple of applicants got their letters before ACORN updated...but those letters didn't arrive during the first week of acceptances). Let's hope Thursday the 22nd is the day!! We've been saying the 23rd, but that was a Thursday last year...yup, I just intensified the anticipation, I did.

Informal poll: how many times is too many times a day to check ACORN?

@cat_not_kitty You make a good summary haha. I usually check 3 times a day. Once in the morning when I am going to work, once at lunch time and once when I just finish work. I don't think they will update at night or weekends so relax yourself when you know that it is already out of their office hour  (though I know it is difficult)

Hey guys, 

I applied to the 2 year MSW at U of T, and I am anxiously waiting as many of us are, to here a response. The suspense is killing me... does anyone know when they will start sending out acceptances?

According to the forum last year, they started to go out on March 23rd. If it’s the same timeline line this year, it means another week of waiting. 

Yea the waiting is a torture. Sadly, if you ask them, they always say by mid-April...

Hi everyone, 

First time to post here. I have applied for the UofT MSW (2-year). I only applied for UofT and I got nervous recently. If they follow last-year timeline, we still have to wait for 10 days...ah cannot bear it.

Some of my backgrounds: My GPA is around A- average in my last year of study and did not write the thesis but I have been a research assistant for around 100 hours when I was an undergraduate student. I graduated from university in 2017 and I have only around 900 hours of volunteer/working experiences at the time I submit the application. Personal Statement is not very strong I suppose- I talked about how I walked out my comfort zone in a volunteer service when they ask us to talk about the greatest achievement in life..ummm may not be what they want. My references should be quite good. 

Anyways, though I know my chance is quite slim but remain hopeful haha:) Good to have so many buddies here who are in the same boat with me!
