Hi everyone!
I will be applying to two-year MSW programs for Fall 2021. I am currently in the fourth year of my Bachelor of Applied Science, which is concluding in April 2021. I will be applying to the University of Toronto, the University of Windsor, and Wilfrid Laurier University (on-campus). My undergraduate program is heavily focused on social services, with only three slots for electives over the four years (I chose electives that were related to human services - Canadian Immigration, Lifespan Development, and Social Welfare).
My GPA is a 3.7 on a 4.0 scale. I finished with a 90% in Qualitative Research Methods and a 95% in Quantitative Research Methods. My degree offers 850+ hours of practicum, all of which I have completed in the area of social services. I have practicum experience in Residential Support for individuals with disabilities, Youth In-Patient Mental Health Treatment, Long-Term Care, and ABA Therapy. I have paid employment experience in IBI Therapy, Residential Support for individuals with disabilities, Student Transitional Support for incoming first-year students, and I am the Academic Program Representative for my program.
I'm nervous but so excited for this process! Good luck everyone!!
