HBSW2021

Hi there, I’m not certain but I don’t think it’s a bad sign that your status changed twice! My status changed to “In Process” on January 14 and then again on February 11 (still “In Process”) before receiving my official offer by email on March 7. I hope that’s helps! For anyone who may be on the waitlist, I declined my offer to Windsor’s MSWwp last Friday so I hope that opens up a spot for someone!

I accepted my offer to Waterloo and would be interested in joining a Facebook group!

I don't think Waterloo offers funding unfortunately ?

I have accepted my offer at UW! If someone were to create a Facebook or Discord group I would be happy to join!

Congratulations! I received my acceptance on Quest yesterday morning and then when I checked again last night saw the option to view the letter.

Hi there! I'm a current student in the one-year HBSW at Lakehead with a Bachelor of Public Health degree and wanted to chime in. I remember being on the fence too about whether or not to pursue a MPH and am so happy I did the HBSW program because it really helped me figure out which path I wanted to take - I applied for advanced standing MSW programs for Fall 2022 and found out I got in! My placement is at a community health centre and my program manager who has her MPH said that being a part of a regulatory body (i.e., OCSWSSW) will open more opportunities. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out and I will answer them the best I can. Good luck to everyone!

I got accepted to Waterloo as well! Will you be accepting?

No not yet... I emailed them yesterday and they said that they have started to post their decisions on each applicant's Quest but the process continues over several days. They hope that by next week all their decisions will be posted and said to continue checking Quest. ?

Got accepted to Windsor's MSW for Working Professionals program (advanced standing)!

Congratulations on being waitlisted! When you checked Quest did you click on "Application" under status and it showed the decision?

I am ?‍♀️ Considering my status changed again today after a month but still says "In Process" who knows how long I'll have to keep waiting.

That's good to know, thank you for sharing! I also wanted to say that my status just changed today but is still "In Process"... hopefully that means they're moving along!

Fingers crossed you hear soon- maybe today will be the day!! ?

Oh no, that's brutal! I wonder if it's possible to reach out and ask for an update, especially since that's way past their turnaround time of 4-6 weeks ?

No, not yet. It's been a month today since my status changed to "In Process" ?
