However, you have to think about how many people live in Toronto and how many applications they receive too. Not sure what their admission % is. I would be interested to know though! From a presentation I went to their admission percentage was still 17% of applicants. Which was the same as Laurier. I think the difference is the sheer number of applicants.

I am assuming I didn't get in as I have heard from people (on and off of this forum) that have been accepted or been waitlisted.
Socwrk2 Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 I was told they do rounds of offers, however, I am not sure if this info is accurate or not. Hoping it is ..

May I ask what your experience, GPA etc was for UOFT? Do you also have alot of experience with the elderly? I have some experience from volunteer and field experience. Most of my experience is from my current job working with adults with intellectual disabilities so I'm not sure if the mental health stream would be more fitting.
SuzyH Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Is anyone still waiting to hear from Waterloo online part time? I feel I need to make a final decision and am just waiting on them...

If that is the case - do you have any idea where we would receive confirmation of our rejection from (i.e. would it be on loris or emailed?)

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to that question. I am assuming they are going to get all of their offers out first and then send their rejections, but that is only speculation.

Anniemsw Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 I didn't receive a call from Ryerson. Does anyone know when or how to check online if you're accepted or not? I was told RAMSS would be updated but does anyone know when? Thanks.

You can receive insight into your app until like April with ryerson I heard
bamboozled Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Has anyone else heard from Waterloo MSW full-time? Still very impatiently waiting over here and I don't want to be the only one who hasn't heard. I sent Marion an email inquiring about when people will find out.

I’m currently on the waitlist and I’m just wondering if there is a possibility of movement any time soon? I know it’s a long shot, but I’ve recently talked to two people who were accepted off the waitlist in previous years. Thanks! I'm also interested to know the answer to this question! Does anyone that got accepted into the UofT advanced standing MSW have an answer ?

My letter was dated Feb 19/19 and they want an answer within four weeks of the letter. Hope that helps! Also, I'm turning down my offer there as I've been offered funding elsewhere so there will be a spot open!

Which program did you decide to go with instead?
DovesLanding Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 Does anyone have any idea how large the waitlist is at King's. Is it everyone who met the eligibility criteria, in ranked order I assume..or do they cap the waitlist size?
SK19 Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 has anyone heard any good news from the 2 year MSW program from king's? I am very nervous to open my email and find out the results as is the only school that I applied to.

KD.msw Posted March 8, 2019 Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) My Loris updated today stating that my application was unsuccessful. I did not receive an email. I applied to the advanced standing MSW program. Edited March 8, 2019 by KD.msw

No problem! Glad to help After MUCH consideration, I decided to go with Carleton. They offered me a great funding package, and while it doesn't have the prestige of U of T, the location and the program structure works better for me. Plus money is kind of a thing for me right now! I'm not entirely sure I made the right decision (lol), but it seemed like a better fit. All the best to you! N_D and SOCIALWERK2020 2
