Hi friends, was just looking for your advice on if I should apply this year or wait until next year? I applied last year and got denied, my average is currently mediocre at 3.3 however since last year I’ve started a 1 year BSW program. I will be finished in the spring but I won’t have any marks from the program by the time they look at marks. I am expecting/hoping this will improve my last 2 year average as in the past I have done well in these classes and it bumps many of my lowest marks out. I have gotten more experience as I am completing a counselling and therapy practicum and have spent more time volunteering as a crisis counsellor. I’m just wondering if I should apply this year or wait until next year, money and time is tight so I’m trying to make a good decision. I do love social work but honestly have dreamed of doing both! I miss the science of psychology and where I live the pay is almost double for those with a psych degree.

I got an email from McMaster saying my application had been updated but when I check there are no updates? Anyone else experience this?

Yes that's what I mean, since my decision for Waterloo is due before I will hear back in the .005% chance I accept and end up sharing back that I also got accepted from Laurier would I be able to tell Waterloo I got another offer and accept Laurier's and no longer attend Waterloo. If that makes sense.

Hi friends! I am so excited! I just got accepted into the 1 year BSW program at Waterloo, but I am still waiting to hear back for the 2 year program at Laurier. My acceptance is due in a week and I have a feeling I won’t hear back from Laurier by then. If I accept the offer and in some very odd chance I then get accepted for the MSW am I able to take back my acceptance ?

Well friends I think that’s the unofficial end of this admissions round for me. I didn’t get any interviews, got my rejections from Windsor last week, and reached out to my POI at USask to ask if I was still in the running and I am not. I think it’s safe to say I didn’t get in at UVic or McMaster as I haven’t heard anything from them. This is my first cycle applying, last year I got rejected from social work, I knew it was dumb to get my hopes up and apply but I’m still crushed. I don’t really feel anything yet but I’m sure it will hit me soon. Good luck to everyone wishing you fantastic studies ???

Does anyone know anything about USask? I haven't heard much and my application hasn't moved.

Just got my rejection email from Windsor’s adult clinical track. I also applied to child clinical but no word back yet and no interviews. My first update on any of my applications? Sending others hugs and good vibes.

When I check Windsor's egas it still says processing. I haven't heard anything from them at all, should I assume I was rejected? Will I get an email?

If I haven’t been contacted for any interviews at all yet am I out of luck ? (Uvic Usask Windsor and McMaster)

I also haven't heard back from anywhere, not even an informal interview and Im starting to feel defeated but I know a lot of people here are saying it's still early for some schools!

Still no word from any of the places I applied but I keep getting an email from McMaster saying my application is under review. Is this good? All my applications still just say under review or completed.

Shucks I had BT as my first choice and I haven’t received anything yet. Wishing everyone good luck !

I applied to 4 schools and 5 programs but haven't heard back from any of them. I knew going my chances were low but Im starting to get nervous that I haven't made it to the next round of any school.
