I was in the 2018/2019 cohort for the Lakehead HBSW program, and I got my acceptance letter on March 28th, 2018. So hopefully you will hear back around the same time!

I was in the year after (2019-2020) and the first round was around April 4th I believe! We then had until April 16th to accept to which more rounds came out. Some of the cohort were accepted up until the week before classes started, so the waitlist really moves. Good luck! Edited February 21, 2020 by sunflower21

It's crazy that the first round of acceptances went out April 4th, that gives students less than 3 months to prepare for the program. Some people really have to uproot their lives including moving cities, finding housing, applying for OSAP/assistance/funding, getting textbooks, terminating their current employment, perhaps finding a new job, finding child care etc. I really think Lakehead needs to change their procedures in order to give students more notice.

How about yourself? Yes both for September 2020 start. I would think we'll hear back from UVic first because the cut off date to apply at UVic was I think December 1 and WLU the cut off date was Feb 1. I'm checking UVic every few days. tkg_12345 1

I actually got an email which said I had been accepted and then directed me to go to my account under “student records” and then “graduate admissions” to see my offer letter and funding!

Email, egas, mail?? I was asked to send in a more official transcript about a week ago and my egas has said "in process" since Feb 12th. Do we think this is good news? neutral news? Has anyone heard back from Windsor non-BSW?? Hey! I got an email and then saw the official letter on egas. I was asked to resend my transcript as well and from then it took about 3 weeks to find out. I would say it's good news so hang in there!!! I wish you all the best. Let me know once you hear back. jberma01 1

Based on previous years, acceptances for the two-year program from Laurier and Kings don't typically come out until mid-March-early April!
