    Hi everyone,

    I was waitlisted at Mac's Psychotherapy Program in Feb for an interview possibly. And I contacted the program advisor in March to inquire when I can hear from them for an interview..and they had said around end of March possibly...so I wanted to inquire if anyone has heard from Mac for 2nd round of interview's I guess. ...

    Hi everyone,

    So I am waitlisted for UFT's 2-year MSW Program, and Windsor's 2-year MSW Program. And so I wanted to know if anyone has heard back from one of these programs... 

    I'm honestly not sure if i will be removed from the waitlist itself so curious to know if someone was accepted from the waitlist.

    do you mind sharing how you emailed him and his address please!

    You can find his email on the program website. And basically what I wrote was the following: 

    I have applied for the 2020-21 MEd counselling and psychotherapy program. And so today I spoke with someone from the OISE register regarding the application and whether they had any updates as I have not received any response since I've applied (the application says it's "under review"). And the individual explained how all the offers and waitlists have gone out already .. Is this true? Because other colleagues of mine who've applied were told that there is a delay in uploading the admission results onto the SGS portal due to working from home..If you could update me on this situation, I'd really appreciate it. 

     His response: Hello (name).. Thanks for your inquiry.   Yes, the application responses are currently being processed by our registrar’s office staff.   With 705 applications to the Counselling program, it can be lengthly process when working from home. I’ve inquired about the status of your application and can report, unofficially, that your application to the MEd Counselling program will be recommended for refusal.    Unfortunately, with 35 spots available this year, there is not enough spaces to accommodate all strong applicants. You should receive the official application response via email shortly.

    I haven't received an official rejection as of yet.

    Just wanted to provide updates for you all. I contact Todd from OISE for the MEd program and he informed me that "unofficially" I will not be accepted into the program this year due to the high number of applications etc (same response others have posted on this forum)..

    .. moreover this was my last response I was waiting on and so I want to thank all of you for the continued support and encouragement. This year was difficult and all of the comments that I read where very helpful throughout the year .. so thank you!

     if anyone is curious below are the other programs I applied and the responses I got.. BEST OF LUCK TO ALL OF YOU STILL WAITING! And don't let a rejection define who you are :)

    OISE MEd Counselling & psychotherapy --> rejected unofficially

    UFT 2-year MSW --> Waitlisted

    Windsor 2-year MSW --> Waitlisted

    York's MSW --> Rejected

    McMaster's Psychotherapy --> rejected 

    Hopefully I hear a positive response from programs i was waitlisted for ^

    An update for those who wanted info on the current waitlist, see below! I asked Todd how many people were on the waitlist currently, and what format the courses in the 2021-2022 semester will be delivered.

    "We have 10 applicants on the waitlist and we hope to have this resolved in the next few weeks. Unfortunately, there are many new admits from out of province/Canada who are needing more time to accept their offer due to increased challenges during covid.

    At this time, it seems that Fall session courses will be online with an eye toward a safe and measured return later in the year, if possible. We are planning for in-class instruction for next Winter session, should the vaccine rollouts be completed, and no new closures/covid waves come back."

    Thanks for the update! ... so since I haven't received any response for my application -- what am I suppose to assume? .. that I am rejected ?... this whole application thing for OISE has me so upset.. like why can't they send a mass email to all the applicants explaining what is going on and if they've already sent all the offers for admission and waitlist..

    I sent them an email about this yesterday too, telling them I have a deadline coming up and I got the same email word for word. I think they’re just copy and pasting ?

    Maybe email the program chair instead of the register as to how you have another deadline approaching and how you are displeased with the admission rollout... usually program chair are the best to inform about such things.. and if you applied for OISE MEd program; i think the program chair is Dr.Lana Stermac .. maybe email her and see...

    Oh My GOD finally caught up on reading the messages here and im soooo nervous you guys. Last initial J here haha. This is literally the moment we've been waiting for and talking about for some time now.  I feel like i'm going to throw up the way my throat has been in a knot today haha.  Everyone has been incredibly uplifting and nurturing throughout the process and i'm so honored to connect with people in this way - especially in the unprecedented times we are in.

    ahaha samee just caught up on the messages & my last initial is J..

    I applied to CP and psychotherapy in OISE. I emailed the APHD to push for a result 3 weeks ago because I had to make decision to another offer. I got a reply from Parnia Kahrizi within 48 hours, who basically copied the exact same paragraph from the website:

    (Notification of results are provided to applicants via the online admissions application. We start uploading letters in early March and continue into March, April, and sometimes later months. If you submit a complete application by November 16, you should receive a decision sometime in March. If you submit an application after November 16, decisions are available within three to six weeks of application submission, but no sooner than early March.
    Hope this answers your question.)

    It is indeed frustrating. UofT was my first choice and dream school but I accepted the other offer anyway. At this point I don't even want to go to UofT anymore. I just want to know my result. I'd happy take the rejection. I was just complaining to my friends how UofT asked for twice as much of application fee but is the slowest to hear back. (McGill hasn't got back to me either but at least they explicitly stated that we would hear back in April). Anyway, I'm done complaining. Good luck to everyone. 

    Hey thanks for sharing this.. and i know it can be frustrating when you're waiting for one program and you just don't hear back --- regardless good or bad... but based on this; if you've submitted your application before/on Nov 16; you should hear back tmrw (since it is the last day of march)... unless COVID has delayed the whole thing ... uggh this so frustrating .. but good luck to all of us tmrw! Hopefully we hear some good news :)

    For those who applied to the OISE counselling & psychotherapy program; has anyone emailed the program coordinator about their response rate... like I remember when applying they said that if you apply before november 16th (due date); you should hear back in march ... and theres literally only 2 days left of march... so I really don't know what to think... on one end I am like; the fact that I haven't heard anything means "nothings bad" -- but I'm also like "well the fact that its so late is also not a good sign either"....

    I'm just curious from those who heard back, did you get rejected/ waitlisted/ accepted, what was your final year average in % (I went to Trent they don't have an easy GPA system), and what experience do you have? ALSO what does your last name start with, I'm wondering if they might be going through sections by name, considering mine is S, maybe I'm at the bottom? I'm just trying to justify it at this point lmao

    Hey not sure about the last name thing cause my last name starts with an J ...

    My status on the Windsor application page still says 'In Process' but the 'Status Change Date' has changed from January 18th to today (March 2nd). Does Windsor send emails to let you know if you got in or not? I'm still waiting on any news and I'm worried that they might have already sent out acceptances. This whole process is so stressful!!

    I got an email saying I was waitlisted. However my status has not changed as of yet.. even the date is Jan 11th.. and not today's..

    Congrats! I'm happy to be put on it as it is my first time applying. Hopefully it moves fast, I am curious of when people have to accept their offers.

    samee it's also my first time applying so honestly happy. But also worried since this was the one school I thought be easier to get in compared to UFT, Westerns' etc.. but hoping for the best! 

    Congrats to everyone who got in!
