Hi everyone. I made a Facebook group for the 2-year MSW at Laurier
https://www.facebook.com/groups/789879272310560

Hey, I was accepted to the 2-year MSW at Laurier as well and would be interested in starting something (if no one has already)!

I'd be interested too!
 
Got my FT on-campus Laurier acceptance on Monday. Did my undergrad in Bio-Psych, then a post-grad in Addictions and Mental Health. 78% average in the last two years and 3800 hours of work experience. Stoked!!! Applied to Windsor MSWwp last year and was rejected.

Are there any groups / group chats for students starting the regular track MSW at Laurier?

Thank you so much 😊 maybe tomorrow is the day 😅😅 I’ve only seen 3-4 acceptances so far so I’m hopeful🥲🥲

I haven’t heard back at all, if that helps how you’re feeling 🥺

Congratulations!!! So excited for everyone who got accepted! I still have not heard anything yet but do not have my LORIS info saved on my device so have to wait to log in at home.  Did you hear back via email? 

Hi all, 
Just got my offer of admission at WLU for the regular track full time on campus option. I have already accepted at UVic so will be declining, and I wish whoever gets my spot all the happiness & success in the world!
As I mentioned before, I'll share my stats here:
My overall GPA for undergrad was an A-, and in my last two years it was an A. I did an English degree with a psychology minor + some counselling courses. 
I had 2ish years of work experience in supporting individuals with disabilities, and various mental health/disability/tutoring volunteer positions. I also was a volunteer RA in the psychology department. 
My statement of interest/analysis of a social issue was pretty similar to what I submitted everywhere I applied. I talked about my experiences growing up as a queer girl in a super conservative environment, moving to Canada from the UK as a teenager, and the things I saw in my work that made me want to pursue social work. More specifically, I talked about wanting to help women with developmental disabilities who have experienced sexual abuse because I had heard so much about it from the women I have worked with. 
I submitted my application extremely late and my last name starts with O. I have heard several theories about the order in which they're contacting people, so I'm not sure if that is helpful!
 
WLU was the last school I heard back from. All the schools I applied for & decisions were:
Dalhousie (rejected)
Carleton (rejected)
U of Toronto (waitlisted)
King's/UWO (waitlisted)
U Fraser Valley (accepted)
UVic (accepted & will be attending)
WLU (accepted)
I debated applying for UNBC, UBC-O and U of Manitoba, but ended up deciding not to. Sorry for the long post, I just want to provide as much info as possible for future applicants!

I got accepted into Laurier this morning as well (regular track)! 
I'm so happy 😁😭!!
I got waitlisted for Uoft and Western which I was really bummed about, so it's great to finally hear some good news. 
I applied last year to Uoft and Western only and got waitlisted as well. Eventhough it sucked, I'm glad I tried again. If anything, I'm more prepared and have more experience than last time. 
To anyone who has been rejected, please try again next year if this is really what you want to do 🙂

just got accepted into lauriers 2 year full time program!! SO HAPPY

please let today be the day we hear back from laurier!!!!

I honestly have the same anxious thoughts about it, only thing that’s making me feel better is the thought that - if we haven’t received anything yet then we’re still maybe getting considered ??  
 
Ive noticed that they aren’t going through applications in chronological order! 

Aww  okay, then maybe it is just randomized. The anticipation is honestly deadly 😭

My last name begins with C and I have not received a response yet sadly 

fingers are crossed!! It would be great if they provided additional information
