Hello lovely people! I've been on this forum for 2 years, having applied to Laurier's Regular Track (non-BSW) MSW program in 2021 and 2022. I was rejected last year, and accepted this year – on April 24, 2023. I've been researching this program since 2017, and it has been my top choice for years, buuuut I think I will decline this year to pursue a 2-year BSW at UBC instead. I'm hoping that will open up a spot for one of you lovely social work hopefuls ❤️ After being a forum creeper for 2 years, I wanted to finally share my update. It's been a long journey, and turning down this opportunity seems like a surprise move, even to me! I wanted to give hope to my lovely waitlist buddies, and also open myself to any questions about applications, social work programs, etc. Like I said, I've been round this rodeo before, having applied to Laurier twice, McMaster post-degree BSW twice (accepted once, this year's decision still pending), and about 4 schools this year. My fingers are crossed for all of you still waiting, and I hope my rejection of the offer will open up a spot – you are all so deserving! If you didn't get in this year – apply again! I'm not entirely sure why I was accepted this year and not last year, but it does go to show that applying twice sometimes pays off! Good luck and love to you all Cat
