MSW29

Received an offer of admission for Laurier’s 2-year this evening as well! My status has changed on LORIS and I was notified via email. I noticed there was no offer letter, just a status update and a button to submit my decision if I choose to accept. I will be rejecting the offer though as I was admitted to other programs. Best of luck to those of you waiting!!!

Just an update: I got off the phone with York this afternoon and was offered admission! I’ve already accepted UofT’s offer but the funding package is extremely generous and I am very confused as to what to do as UofT was my top choice but I can’t oversee the funding from York. Does anyone have any insight or perspective? I know York is more critical and I know I was personally hoping for more clinical experience but York did mention that there are still ways to obtain clinical experience through placement. Also for those of you waiting, they shared that this is the first round and they are contacting top 20 applicants. Feeling so unbelievably grateful but very confused as I have two weeks to accept!! MyFile has not been updated but I was advised that it would be uploaded Monday or Tuesday.

Just received an email from York University stating that they would like to schedule a phone call to provide me with an update regarding my application for the MSW two-year program. I’m a domestic applicant and have already accepted my UofT offer but I’m shocked lol. Is this common for the program to schedule a call?

Hey everyone! Not sure if this is the right forum for this question but have any uoft applicants looked into the collaborative specializations? I was looking into applying for the women and gender studies option but wanted some insight into how difficult it is to balance, be admitted, etc. Thanks

Accepted into UofT’s 2-year! I honestly stopped checking this forum and ACORN yesterday because I had given up hope, but was notified this morning around 10:00am via email about a status update on SGS and my offer of admission was there! This was my second time applying after being waitlisted last year and I honestly gave up hope when I saw all the acceptances go out last week. Feeling super grateful but I want to send positive vibes and all the love to those of you waiting. I know how difficult and draining this whole process can be but your time will come! So many overqualified applicants in this thread that would make such awesome social workers ❤️

Amazing!!!!!! So happy for you! Is your ACORN account the same every year? I applied last year but I wasn't sure if there was anew ACORN account that I would need to make. Any insight would help!

There seems to be a lot of individuals who have been waitlisted. Is this common? I’m dying to know how long UofT’s waitlist is... not sure if there’s still hope of getting off of it! Any insight?

Just got waitlisted at UofT! Last initial is C

Just got waitlisted! My last name is C

Starting to think this year just isn’t my year! I kind of expected it though as I’m applying right out of undergrad (graduating this month) but I felt pretty good about my application! Nonetheless, I’m really hoping all you second-half-of-the-alphabet applicants hear back today! It’s been so nice to see that people are actually hearing back and like many of you have said, you all sound like amazingly empathetic and kind individuals! No wonder the competition is so intense lol

As a person with a C last name I am panicking lol

I’m C and nothing yet either!

If it helps my last name is C so I’m close to the top of the list and haven’t heard anything yet! lol

Congrats so happy for you!! Do you mind sharing your experience (and if you’re comfortable the first letter of your last name so we can figure out if its alphabetical)? So glad people are starting to hear back!!

Do you mind if I ask if you’re an international or domestic applicant?
