Got my first acceptance email today! U of C Leadership in the Social Services specialization.
Applied with 8000+ hours work experience in acute care, assertive community treatment, and a specialized outreach team in DTES. Plus about 2000 hours volunteer/practicum experience. GPA about 85% during my BSW (I had a prior degree in political science and it was not great there - high 70s). Also have been involved in one minor research project/presentation post-degree and did a self directed study/research project during my BSW which I definitely played up.
So excited!!
