I need this for my Waterloo MSW!! They have a whole list of eligible courses on their website, could google course outlines to find a good fit. Unfortunately, probably going to have to do some math but it looks like the requirement is only to pass the course haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attempting Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Anyone have insight in whether the 2020 MSW year will continue given the COVID-19 crisis is expected to last for months or even years? I know BSW programs are already indefinitely suspending practicums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know BSW programs are already indefinitely suspending practicums. U of T looks to be continuing, albeit the summer session may move online. It’s anyone’s guess about practicum Placements and how each school will manage it. I’m not sure how helpful it is to guess right now. My work is work from home until further notice. I guess that is indefinite? As for years, I think we have to remain hopeful and control the controllable. Washing hands, social distancing, supporting each other and protecting the more vulnerable ?

socialworkerjake Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Hi everyone, I have been creeping these forums for awhile and now in the process of waiting on my applications. I've applied to the two year MSW programs at UoT and Laurier (part-time online) and currently in the process of completing my application for the online MSW program at Yeshiva University in NYC. The wait has honestly been very hard but knowing others are in the same boat has been reassuring. Did anyone else apply to any post-degree BSW programs? I have also applied to Dalhousie's post-degree online BSW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to hear your thoughts about the program/ get your insight about what you've heard about it! Oh that’s great! I haven’t seen many Canadians talk about the Yeshiva program so it’s nice to hear someone else is also applying! I’ve heard really great things from the research I’ve done. I’ve also been in contact with the admissions coordinators and have had a few conversations with them over the phone. They also connected me with a current student in the program who is also taking it from Canada. She highly recommended it and said she’s really enjoying it. I also know that it is an accredited program in Canada, so registering with the college shouldn’t be an issue (at least I know for Ontario) although you may need to check with the social work regulating body in your province if you are not from here. The only drawback I would say is the price, as the program is expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SquigglesSquiggles Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Is anyone else wondering how COVID-19 will be affecting the programs? It's likely going to last for another year to 18 months- I've debated going with Waterloo (already distance ed), because it might be better than a hastily-put-together distance ed program at another school.

mystiqueMSW Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I just asked Angela from UofT and got the same response(s) above. My guess is that we'll hear back from April 6 - 17* * Last year, decisions for the Advanced standing and two-year programs at UofT were sent out 5 weeks apart - and the Advanced standing decisions for this year were sent out Mar. 2 (add 5 weeks and we're at April 6).

pothos Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 I had a question for anyone who was offered admission at Ryerson for their full time program: what is the funding package (if there is one) like? Were you offered any scholarships/grants, etc.? Asking because I was waitlisted at Ryerson and accepted at York. Ryerson was my first choice but York's funding package is a sweet deal so now I"m trying to decide whether I should hold out on this waitlist. Thanks!

I struggled with the same decision. In the end, I chose u of t. I registered early and am starting two online classes end of April. They were always meant to be online. Who knows if it’s the right choice? All choices are harder to make right now with so many unknowns!! Good luck with your decision, and maybe I will see you (virtually or otherwise) in some of my classes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopefulandCurious Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Did anyone apply to May 2020 Laurier Advanced Standing (online)? If I remember correctly, was today the date you had to give a decision by? Anxiously waiting on waitlist status..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
