I applied for distance for both dal and uvic

I heard from them yesterday via letter. Unfortunately, I wasn't offered admission :( but it's okay! Im glad I got into UVIC. Hoping the best for you! Let us know how it goes :)

Wow! I’m so glad to hear that. Congratulations on getting accepted. It hasn’t be changed yet and I’m still waiting :(, but super happy for you!

Same, still waiting

Hi! I'm also waiting to hear back from Dalhousie. I applied with a Bachelor of Arts Degree, with a Major in Criminology and a Minor in Counselling and Human Development. I had a B-/B average in my last 60 credits. In my application, I included my time working in a Youth Services office that helps families and youth. The office offers guardianship, child protection, youth justice services, and I've been in this position for one and half years. I mostly assist with clerical work, but there's a lot of program work involved also when helping social workers, and probation officers. Before that I use to work for a Women's Centre that helped women, and children fleeing from violence. I mostly provided short-risk assessments, and resources to women. I also had volunteer experience as a Youth Ministry Coordinator for about 5 years, and other volunteer experience such as fundraising for/working with the poor and homeless. I've applied to UVIC also, and I just heard back from them today. Thankfully they offered me admission, and now I'm just waiting for Dalhousie to get back to me so that I can weigh out my options. But I'm super excited, and I hope we hear back soon. My long term goal is to work in health care social work or gerontology social work, so fingers crossed I do well so that I can apply for my MSW in the future. Good luck!!
