At OISE my 2nd choice is Social Justice. My fears dwell on the possibility that it is March and no news may lead to bad news. Any hits on this? Good luck to all ! Hey... same! I have heard nothing concerning MEd in counselling. However, according to the admissions office, they release their results as of March 1st. Also, I have been reading old posts from last year, and it seems that it was about a week after this date that people began to receive their results/offers. I don't think we should give up... not yet! Best of luck...!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-boy Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Thank you for your interest in the Carleton University Master of Journalism program and thank you for your patience as our admissions committee conducts its deliberations. You should know that the MJ is a limited enrolment program to which only 20 or so students are admitted each year. We first admit a complement of domestic students, and only once that cohort has been settled upon do we turn our attention to international applicants. As well, we only have the capacity to admit a very small number of international students — sometimes as few as one. We are currently in the process of waiting to hear from some of the domestic applicants to whom we have extended offers of admission. It may be a few weeks before we will know how many spaces in the program, if any, will be available to international applicants. Again, we thank you for your forbearance. So I just got this email from Carleton, please someone help me make sense of this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing they will see how many of the domestic students they have sent out offers to accept the offers and then decide on looking at how many international students they are looking to admit. It really sucks that they have such a limited opportunity for international students, really limits how holistic a course is, but then again it seems like a pretty small program so it's not unusual as well because it's common practice to first look at domestic students. Don't give up hope, it's not a rejection. You're still in the game. Allbert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elizabethstewart111 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) I applied to OISE at the University of Toronto for Education Leadership and Policy (LHAE) and my ACORN changed today, to "invited" for registration status. But my program enrollment hasn't changed, nor my financial status, and I haven't received any letters/emails for acceptances. Has this happened to anyone else?

It’s sad to know that with the many international students that would apply, only one might get picked and that is only if one of the accepted domestic students declines an offer.

No go. I share the same sentiments! I feel very upset about this, sincerely! This is certainly not fair; everyone should have equal chance of being admitted regardless of their origin provided that they meet the requirements. This sheds light on what the department is all about. Bunch of discriminators!!! If I were you, I'm gonna tend in a contentious email to the department to give me more clarifications on why this is so! I took the liberty to apply for the program knowing that I qualify and stand a chance of getting in like everyone else applying. Paid, maybe, an even higher app fee. Then you write to me telling me this nonsense?!!! Allbert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to make clear that there are 2 kinds of applicants: Canadians... and the rest. Then again, this is my humble personal OPINION, I have no knowledge about this institution, let alone MJ.

I applied to Ryerson Uni and Carleton Uni for a masters in Journalism. The wait is absolutely exhausting and I keep going to Carleton portal every other day, Ryerson doesn’t seem to have a way to track applications. I am somewhat scared of being rejected as well. Please who is in the same both as me and waiting for a decision? I got my Carleton acceptance this week for Journalism & Comms - maybe they're sending out acceptances on a rolling basis? not sure if that helps!

Thank you for responding both! I see! I am not currently a U of T student or education student and only applying for the MA, not Med, but hopefully its still a good thing that TPEEAMED at least has something to do with education?!

Ekinsu92 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Those who have applied York sociology, have you checked your application status? I've seen a rejection on the board, but mine is ' no decision yet'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
