Hi friends! How is everyone feeling about the fall? I saw the announcement regarding UofT looking at a hybrid model - hoping we hear a comment from CIRHR sometime in the next few weeks regarding how this impacts MIRHR!

Hi everyone! I stumbled across this thread while looking for more information about how things will be in the upcoming 2020 fall semester for the MIRHR program. I know more information is coming about course delivery over the next few weeks, but if I had to take a guess, I would think that this program would favor the use of small class sizes as opposed to online delivery. I base this off of the enrollment for courses on ACORN being as small as 4 students per section to being as large as 25 or so. 

The financial struggle for this program might be worse than I initially anticipated given the low likelihood of finding reasonable summer employment now. Personally I'll be keeping an eye out for TAship openings in the psychology and philosophy departments since I have a decent academic history with my undergrad specialization and major in those subjects. I would suggest any student who is expecting to face difficulty or debt to check out the following resources:

-The career and learning network for on campus, off campus, and work-study jobs: https://clnx.utoronto.ca/students/wspublicstudents.htm
-The Ontario Student Opportunity Trust Fund forms can be found under the Financial Aid section here (Note the June 15 application deadline): https://www.cirhr.utoronto.ca/current-graduate-students/forms-and-information

Good luck everyone, hope to see you around come September!

With all the mess I have totally forgotten to post in here! Got in about 3 weeks ago to the 2 year program! 
Huge congrats to everyone! We made it  

Congratulations to all of us!!! I just got into the 2 year program as well! So excited to meet you all in person in the fall

Congratulations!!!! I just got my acceptance as well for the 2 year program and found this forum! 

Hey guys!! I just received an offer of admission to UofT MIRHR - however they deemed me ineligible for the 12-month program, they've extended an offer for the 2 year :]

@TenH @allyvs132 we're in this together ✊

At least now we have a place to update each other if we hear back!

Thanks! I got an email from admissions.
I think since the application deadline has just passed on 3/1, more offers will definitely come in mid or late March.
I really hope the best of luck to all of you!

I’ve been waiting for someone to start this thread, thank you!!

@allyvs132 I found the Queen’s app about on par with UofT, only difference was Queen’s had some extra questions aside from the statement of interest that allowed more detail than the couple of questions UofT had. 

Offer came yesterday, which is such a nice surprise to me!
BEST OF LUCK to all of you who have applied!!

Thanks @SmallBean for sharing your background! It sounds like you are in great shape to receive a few acceptances! Even if it was a lot of work applying to these schools, it will pay off when you get to choose which school you're most interested in attending! And yes here's hoping my grades will make the cut  
Hey @kchen - I was told by the admissions office in December that the admission committee starts meeting mid-January so I SCRAMBLED to get my references to submit their documents in time for mid-January. Once they had attached their documents in early January, my status changed to 'under review' and has been so since then. I think this is just the standard message that displays once all the documents have been attached, and the admissions office can track them as received. Unfortunately, I wouldn't take it as anything other than a notification stating they have received your full application. 
The admissions office told me to reach out to them if I haven't heard anything by end of April, so I recommend you do the same if this is the case with you! I've been searching similar forums from previous years and can't find any proof of acceptances prior to April ... but you never know! I'd say expect to hear back mid-late April, and if you hear back earlier then that's great!

Thanks for starting this discussion! 
I only applied for the UofT MIRHR 2 year stream this year - but I'll definitely consider applying for Queen's MIR, YorkU MHRM, and UoRegina MHRM next year (if I'm not successful with my UofT application). Good for you for applying to all these programs! It would have taken a considerable amount of time and energy, so even just applying to these programs is a huge accomplishment.
How did you find the application processes for these other programs, compared to the MIRHR application? As well, if you don't mind me asking, what sort of background did you have going into these applications? I have a Bachelor of Commerce and two years' HR experience, but my GPA wasn't very strong (B+ in third year and A- in last year) which is really my main concern. 
Best of luck to everyone still working through their applications!
