    Hi all - for those of you who will be going to the OISE MEd Counselling & PSychotherapy program: firstly, Congratulations!! I was thinking of creating a whatsapp group for our 2023-2025 cohort. If you would like to be in this group, please feel free to message me with your number so I can add you!

    I will most likely be declining UofT's MSW-2 year program as I will be accepting MEd OISE's counselling program. So for those of you on the waitlist, there is hope

    Hi all! Congrats on those who have been accepted, and to those who still did not get accepted, or are still waiting to hear back, don't lose hope!! Your worth is not defined by an acceptance or rejection. I am looking for some input as I am in a dilemna. I have been accepted to 3 programs and am trying to choose between them. I have spoken to alumni and made pros and cons list, but feel so stressed as I realy can't make a deicsion so ANY input is helpful!!!! I have been accepted to the following programs: 1. Masters of science in pschotherapy @ Mcmaster. 2. Masters of Education in counselling and psychotherapy 2 UofT (OISE) 3. MSW (mental health stream) at UofT. what would you advise me to pursue? For context, my long term goal is to do therapy (private practice) but want to leave the door open to other oppertunities as I know from many therapists that burn out is real in this field. I know that an MSW allows you to do many things, other than therapy, but just wondering what your thoughts are. A masters of science really stands out to me as well, and I like Mac's program as it seems very clinical. Also during my interview @ mac, the staff seemed so friendly and it looks like a wonderful and supportive program. However, I am not sure if I can do a PHD after with an MSC ? At this point, I am really not looking to do a PHD but again, just wanting to leave the door open. would love your input as I am drowning in my own thoughts/doubts about the best decision to make!

    Hi all, Would love your insight on this. I have been accepted to the Mcmaster masters of science in psychotherapy program and the OISE Masters of Education in counselling program. I am struggling which program to choose. I know Mcmaster's program requires you to complete 500 hours of practicum, wheras uoft is 250 hours. However, program-wise, I am struggling to make a decision. What would you do if it was you? Also, is it true that MEd opens up more doors to a doctorate down the line? I am leaning more towards Mcmaster program as it is more clinical?
  7. ManukaHoney

    i just checked my mcmaster portal and there was a status update. I got in the msc psychotherapy program! feels so unreal
  14. ManukaHoney
    Oh wow, thanks so much for the thoughtful and helpful response. That’s amazing! This may be my next step honestly if I don’t get in this year, I may go for a BSW. ( I applied last year for the UofT MED in counselling and was rejected, so this year I applied to it again in addition to MSW) What was your undergrad in the first time? And where did you complete a BSW at? I am wondering whether there is an online BSW program as I currently work full time. This is my first time applying to the MSW program but looking at stats of people getting in is super discouraging.
  15. ManukaHoney
    Thanks for sharing and congratulations!!! I saw you posted that you also applied for tis program in 2019. Do you mind me asking how many times did u apply and what did u do to improve your application?
  16. ManukaHoney
    No it’s not online maybe it was online during covid?
  17. ManukaHoney
    I haven’t heard back either! and yes, as someone else stated, they said mid to end of march, so Im expecting they start like March 15??
  18. ManukaHoney
    Hey! Did you end up getting into the program?!
  19. ManukaHoney
    That’s great! Congrats! Is it true Advanced standing or regular track MSW?
  20. ManukaHoney
    Thanks so much for sharing. I was going to apply to this program this year but didn’t have a professional reference at the time. Do you mind sharing your stats and experience with me? Want to gage what successful applicants have!
  21. ManukaHoney
    Oh thanks for that! Haha in all honesty, it’s hard not to check the portal, but at least that gives me a timeline so I can stop stressing for a bit! Thanks again
  22. ManukaHoney
    Amazing congratulations and thanks for sharing the news! Is it the UofT program? And is it the regular track or advanced standing?
  23. ManukaHoney
    Thanks for letting us know! Do you know if it is only for the advanced standing decisions or is it also the regular track?
  24. ManukaHoney
    Thanks so much for your response. Yes, the waiting totally sucks. I am checking the portals and emails 100 times per hour. at this point I feel like i am not even functioning as I am waiting for their responses. This is my second time applying to grad school and don't want to go through this process again next year, so draining.

    Anyone know when UofT MSW usually releases their results? or York u? I heard a couple of people reciving acceptances from the advanced standing at UofT but no one yet from the 2 year regular track!
