hang in there. So far there have only been about 10 people with acceptances, must be really early it could still be today or tomorrow. I am last name G and haven't heard yet.

that is weird because I can fully login to access ACORN from last year when I was waitlisted, they give it to you when you apply to set up the account.

so far just acceptances.

so I have a theory for UofT... it seems like they started last night and each day they go through a round of the alphabet for applicants accepted (considering that early this morning someone heard with a B last name). My status on sgs still remains submitted, and I can login to my acorn as a repeat applicant but don't see any fee request (yet). The good news is no one has gotten waitlisted yet.. so maybe they are doing acceptances over the next few days and restart each day by going through the alphabet again?

Congrats!!

Congrats to all that have gotten into uoft 2 year so far! What a journey it has been. My last name is G so I’m hoping myself and some others are in the next round.. surprised to see them release so late into the evening I guess it’ll restart tomorrow

was it your first time applying? they have a new system but you should have been emailed a login for acorn if you were a first time applicant. Not to worry though, they send you and email and it'll show in the applicant system too (where you have the checklist and uploaded everything)

Omg congrats!! Nothing for me yet I am getting nervous now

honestly.. my application status still says submitted i'm not getting my hopes up to expect any earlier than april 9 but I would sure like it to happen before then for all of us..

I still cannot believe we are still waiting for UBCO and UofT... I keep telling myself UofT will be April 7-9th like last year but it feels painful to wait 2+ weeks STILL.

Nothing for me either :(

I expect we won’t see an update for a couple weeks :( nothing on my end as of yet. Crazy to think we’ve been waiting since December

Ugh it sucks so much.. they really stand by this too, last year I heard April 9. I’m hanging in hoping it won’t be a month away bc it’s ridiculous

Aw thank you! So kind of you :)

ugh.. the wait for UofT 2 year sucks, last year early march on the exact same day as this year is when they released advance standing, then there seems to be a large gap for anyone to hear about the 2 year.. I hope it is the end of March rather than waiting another month.. like many other folks I am trying to figure out what to do with my life and these decisions are impacting that more than i'd imagine.. looking for places in Ottawa while realizing I don't actually want to move there as I live in Toronto currently and have a great job with TGH and another part time job at a cafe.. but knowing I could just be waiting to hear about waitlist spot like last time seems really difficult.. could be waiting until August or september all over again.. makes things so hard!

I did not! Maybe they won’t release anything until the end of the month?

lots of folks do this, there is often no choice. MSW's are very competitive, to answer your question it will not affect your chances at other schools bc there is no way of other schools knowing where you've applied to/accepted and at the same time many other schools know and expect that this will happen. This is why the waitlist exists for schools student's give up their spots if they hear from somewhere else or if they just can't go-don't stress I am in the same position.

same- I submitted Dec 15 including references and received my under review email Jan 18th.. been silent since then.

Me!

I was an applicant last year (waitlisted) and it wasn't until April 9 that people heard I don't even remember my status updating until like the end of March.. it is rough. Hang in there! I am with you.

Thank you! This is helpful, I accepted my offer to Carleton but if I get into uoft I’m gonna go as I live 10 min from there

Does anyone know if Carleton offers the grad school equivalent of a reading week? Like some time off in between semesters? I know other schools do so wasn't sure..

Hey- yes! So if they offer you a funding thing with a letter (separate from what they’d offer other students) when you accept it’s automatically accepted, you should be able to go in to Carleton central under your application and see some more funding options there too where you’ll see a button that says accept or decline.

Hey- I just got accepted I think it's like 15k? for the whole 2 years.. they also offer funding to all students!

woohoo!
