Hi everyone! I know how hard it can be to find meaningful volunteer experience to add to your resume, so I wanted to share this opportunity here for anyone who may be interested. I am currently working as the Education and Awareness Coordinator for a Youth Cannabis Awareness Program and am looking for individuals between the ages 15-24 who might want to join a Youth Advisory Council to discuss harm reduction practices in relation to youth cannabis use across Canada. Please feel free to message me if you are interested!

Did you ever figure out if Laurier provides any funding? I was recently accepted off the wait list and would love to know!

I just got off the waitlist for Laurier’s 2 year program starting in September!! I’m in shock!!!!

Got an email from UBCO just now, they said that decisions will be released within the next two weeks. There has been a delay in the admission process, whatever that means haha

Congrats! Do you mind me asking the first initial of your last name? and what time did they send out your offer!

I believe it is an internal waitlist...so until you hear back you truly don't know what to expect!

Nope, not me…I emailed to inquire last week as well and still didn’t get an answer.

So…I guess UBCO will be any day now? I can’t believe it’s been this long!

I haven’t heard anything either, I feel you, it’s so discouraging!

I was also put on the waitlist. Hopefully since many people have already accepted elsewhere there is a good chance to get off of it!

Me neither

That’s what I thought as well! I think they have an undisclosed waitlist, but honestly who knows. I wish you the best of luck

When did you apply? I applied January 7th

Is anyone else still waiting for UBCO? I’m feeling pretty discouraged

I also haven’t heard anything yet. I’d love to know what information they provide you!

Congratulations! When did you get accepted to UBCO and when did you apply? From my own research that I’ve done, Dal has a lot of courses that could be geared towards clinical social work. Dal also has a clinic that is associated with the school which could be a great opportunity to learn more clinical skills in a hands-on setting. UBCO is obviously a clinical program, with clinically-oriented placements. I guess it just depends on what you are hoping for in regards to potentially moving provinces, perhaps look into professors who align with your interests, etc etc. I wish you the best of luck and hope this was a little helpful!

When did you apply to UBCO? Congratulations on getting another acceptance though!

I also haven’t heard anything yet, you’re not alone

You should email them and see! I’m sorry you haven’t heard anything at all, I can imagine how frustrating that is (I’m in the same boat for other schools). It’s worth a shot to reach out and just inquire!

You got 2 emails that it was under review? I only got one on January 24th…did anyone else get 2 emails?

I am domestic. Try going into sgs as if you were going to upload a document. It should say near the top that your status has changed

I noticed on my uoft application on sgs that I was waitlisted for the 2-year program. I didn’t get an email or anything, so go check your sgs account!

Thank you so much! I got that email January 24th so hopefully soon! Congratulations again, I’m so happy for you!

Congrats! When did you apply?

From what I understand they send out results based on when you applied. I applied closer to the deadline so I’m not expecting to hear closer till the end! Don’t stress just yet (I know it’s hard I really feel you)!
