Hey guys! Does anyone know how many people OISE MT accepts per year? I saw somewhere they only accept 60 people but idk if that's true.

I believe it’s the MA CSE that accepts around 60 and the MT is probably 100-200 (not sure on the MT tho!)

Hi! I'm in the same position as you! To help decide between the two, I am going through the various courses that are offered in each program to see which ones I am more interested in.

The MT program has a stronger research component to it, since you have to do an extensive research project, so that is important to take into consideration!

The MA CSE program does have unique benefits to it, including access to the lab school and the program's focus on only primary/junior teaching. 

I think I saw on the website somewhere that the MA CSE also has a research project in year two as well (I think there was a course for it listed). 
 

Does anyone know about this? I don’t remember hearing anything about it at any of the open houses.

Hi everyone. 

I got accepted to both the MACSE and MT program. I am not sure which one to pick? Does anyone have any advice, what is the difference between these 2 programs?  Is anyone in the same boat as me. i am so confused. 

I relate 100%! I really enjoyed the welcome reception and am now trying to find more info about MT so I can be thorough in my decision. It is super hard to choose!

I had such a good time at the MACSE welcome orientation! Does anyone know if the Masters of Teaching typically does any info sessions around this time? It's so hard to choose haha

Soooo my undergrad (it’s an ece designation program) focused a lot on learning theory and then putting that into practice, specifically around children and their development. I really like the way that it was structured and felt like it was a really effective learning style for me. Alsoo I’m not 100% sure that I want to teach forever, I am potentially interested in doing more school after specifically related to child development and so I feel like the MACSE is a better fit for me!!!! 

So true!! I can definitely relate, I really want something that will give me flexibility long-term and fit my research interests. Thanks for the info!

Thank youuu!!! I would definitely choose the MACSE, it was my first choice on my application!!!!  

Do you mind sharing what helped you decide on MACSE as your first choice? So far it’s my only acceptance but I’ve been doing tons of research to sort out which one would fit me best!

I also never got the deposit on acorn! I was also admitted into the MACSE program and that is not showing up on my admissions portal or my acorn account yet

I was also accepted into the MACSE and didn't see anything about that program on my ACORN yet. But I did see deposits for the Masters of Teaching, which I haven't heard from yet!

Congrats! I got an unofficial acceptance around the same time!  If anyone starts/finds any Facebook groups (or other groups) for our class, I'd love to join.
