I was looking into applying at for the Lakehead program, but my contract in Japan ends at the end of July, so I wouldn't be able to get back to Canada in time to begin. It's unfortunate, because it sounds like a good option. My mom completed the Lakehead program in Orillia a few years ago and enjoyed it. I'll look into the St. Thomas program, though!

Thank you! I've already submitted the online application, so I'm still going to go ahead and apply. I'll just have to make sure to really put a lot of effort into my written statement (not that I wouldn't have otherwise, but maybe emphasize certain areas that I wouldn't have thought to emphasize before).

Oh, this is slightly discouraging to hear since I currently have around 4000 hours, and it might not even be considered quality experience since it's not directly in the social service field (I don't think). Oh well, I guess I'll try to make my application as stellar as possible. I'm really crossing my fingers for UofT, and I'm hoping my international work/volunteer experience will be looked upon favourably.

I'll be applying to three universities: UofT, Laurier, and Windsor.

I'll be applying this year for the first time! I've been living in Japan for the past two+ years, so I'm kind of concerned as to how that will look on my applications. I'll be applying to UofT, Laurier, and Windsor. Good luck to everyone!
