Rassky Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 Got my rejection from Ryerson yesterday. Not waitlisted, just declined. Even though I was going to decline admission if it were offered, it still hurt my feelings lol. Wgsttomsw and mswsteph 2

Trying to get an idea of what it takes to get in. Expand My GPA wasn't stellar (in my opinion), I think it was a 3.3 (pregnant and giving birth in my last semester kinda fudged that up, haha) I've been working as a clinical social worker now for the past 4 years, before that I was outreach for 6 months. Prior to and during my BSW I worked in a residential treatment centre for addictions.

Katims Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 I’ve just been waitlisted at one school (Lakehead MSW) and I haven’t heard back yet from my other application (York Advanced Standing) .. I’m kinda trying to come up with a backup plan for if I don’t get in to either.. Does anyone know of any MSW programs that start in January or later that have applications still open?

In saying that, personally I recommend trying to find a job in the field and work for a year. That adds quite a bit to an application later on. Edited March 18, 2020 by sofiahats typo

adultingsucks Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 guys I'm so anxious that York hasn't sent out their 2 year acceptances yet. their website said 8-12 weeks from the day of application deadlines for decisions to be made and it has been that long already

Please use York University website which will provide the most recent information moving forward. In general the applicants are notified late March and into April. I would encourage you to keep checking your MyFile account for any updates. The process will conclude at the end of May. Any applicant who was not accepted can reach out to the school or department to receive some feedback on why it may not have been accepted. I hope this helps and stay safe! Pip mswsteph 1

Expand Offers come out sometime before the end of April, likely around the middle of the month, after all the other admittance offers have been either accepted or rejected. I'm not sure how many are on the list. I think ppl on the waiting list are prioritized, based on a vague (but helpful) answer to a question I asked. I emailed marion at admissions. She didnt seem to mind at all, and was super quick to reply. Let me know if you hear anything. I should note this is for the part time program Edited March 19, 2020 by Vivi2020
