Katims Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Has anybody heard from York advanced standing (one year)? MyFile still says Currently Under Consideration... but it looks like a lot of people have heard from the two-year, so I'm wondering if I've been rejected!

So I’m not certain, but from what I’ve read on the forums if you don’t hear from York right away it means you’re waitlisted. Instead of notifying people they are waitlisted, they keep the applications in a sort of limbo, and if a position becomes available you’ll be offered admission. If not, eventually you‘ll get a rejection. It’s a pretty shitty way of doing it in my opinion, and I may be wrong - but that’s what it seems like from here. xliterati, katm149, ced2020 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConfusedTherapist Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Since I've been refreshing the page on the daily (hourly let's be honest) I thought I would drop a post. I am also waiting to hear back from Laurier for their online MSW starting this fall. I also check Loris waaayyyyy to often.

Golden10 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I am also waiting to hear from Laurier online MSW Advanced standing. This will be my third time applying. First time - declined - I was fresh out of school so that was expected. Second time - Waitlisted - which did not end up moving due to the competitive nature of the program (they informed me that there were over 600 applications and I was 1 of 20 placed on the waitlist) Fingers crossed for everyone!

I actually had to contact Laurier with a question, and they did also confirm that results would be posted in May. I'm not sure if they've ever been early before, but they are still using the May date...at least it's not late? Good luck!

They finally got back to me today and let me know that all training cohorts for April are full. They will open new training in the coming weeks for May. It sounds like they are incredibly busy and there are a ton of applicants, so it may be a pretty slow process. Hopefully we both hear something again soon Hey! Were you able to sign up for a cohort yet? I got accepted to start volunteering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What statistics are you looking for, exactly? And there isn't a problem with you doing your masters at the same school. Many people do this. It used to be more "taboo" to get the entirety of your education at one institution as it meant that you did not have a wide range of educational perspectives (for example different schools with different focuses, values, learning objectives), but many MSWs have different lenses, so it really depends on what you're looking to get out of your education. Even if you did your BSW there. I know many folks who have 2-3 degrees all from the same school. katm149 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
