Hi all! I'm planning on applying to U of Toronto's non-BSW entry this year (along with a few other schools), but U of T being my first choice this year. I applied to Dalhousie U last year (in person, non-bsw entry) and was admitted, but ended up turning it down due to a lack of clinical focus in the program. One thing that I am worried about with U of Toronto, after hearing back from their admission's coordinator, is that they don't consider courses taken post-graduation (after degree has been rewarded) in their calculation of GPA. I have taken about 5 courses post BA graduation in 2018 in order to upgrade my GPA, which has been quite successful- raising the "last year of study" GPA by 9%, to 85% as opposed to 76%. How do I navigate this, as I feel my undergrad GPA is really the only detrimental aspect to my application, which I have worked hard to ameliorate. I otherwise have: -Great references -7 years of social sector work experience, focusing on youth and wanting to work clinically -Hopefully a strong statement of purpose Any guidance would be so greatly appreciated.
