You want to remind them but you feel like they’re not obligated to do anything for hou. I had to change this professor to a new reference a week before the deadline. lol I didn’t want to risk it. 9 hours ago, SuzyH said: Many schools will extend a deadline as this is not your fault - perhaps write the school, let them know the steps you have taken, and ask them what can be done. Thank you for the replies! It's an awkward situation to be in - knowing that your applications rests in the hands of other people is stressful! He submitted the reference this evening Whew!!! mswmbapp and SuzyH 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm waiting to hear about Laurier's September start Advanced Standing and Waterloo's program. Have heard back from U of T but would like to review the programs more thoroughly when I receive responses from Laurier and Waterloo. I'm in a very similar boat! Honestly I'm kind of hoping I don't get accepted to Laurier so I don't have to make a decision... If I do though I'd be happy to review with you and be a sounding board! It's a big decision.

That is ridiculous that they make the deadline so soon. They do it in an attempt to secure applicants, but that us just shady. They know most schools haven't sent out their offers yet. hellohamilton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in a similar boat...I heard back from Carleton on Feb 14, and need to let them know by March 6...it's nice they gave me three weeks to decide but I'm not going to hear back from everywhere else by then...I just wish they all came out at least around the same week. So hard to make a decision when I've not heard back from everywhere! hellohamilton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD.msw Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I was accepted into McMaster's MSW - critical leadership program by phone on Feb 19!! Also, I was accepted into Waterloo's full-time, advanced standing MSW program today! Like many of you, I am waiting to hear from Laurier. I heard from someone today that Laurier's advanced standing applicants will find out by the end of next week. kidsndog, hellohamilton and Back to School 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy1 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Got accepted to Waterloo Renison (probably can't accept because I can't take a statistics course for my life), waiting on Laurier, Ryerson and York..

Ihatethissomuch Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 You know, I'm not sure if this thread is the best for emotional well-being. Well, my own emotional well being anyway. One can recite their own stats and read others but still wont have any idea if they will get accepted or not. I've seen some extremely qualified candidates get waitlisted and some candidates who may not 'WOW' on paper get acceptance. I've given up trying to have any notion of what admissions want.

mriley26 Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 I just stopped in King's (Western's) social work office and Julie said that their goal is to notify people about the 2 year MSW by mid-march but she's hopeful that it'll be sooner!
