radiatepositivity Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 Thought I would start this forum to communicate with anyone who applied for BSW in Canada!!
Amanda121 Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 I applied to the part-time online BSW program through Dalhousie!
radiatepositivity Posted April 6, 2020 Author Posted April 6, 2020 amazing! hope you get in! I was wondering what type of experience do you have? I just graduated this year.. I was hoping to do a masters but I missed the deadline so I applied to BSW

I just graduated this year.. I was hoping to do a masters but I missed the deadline so I applied to BSW Thanks! I have an undergrad degree in psych, and a social service worker diploma. I've been working in the field for the last 7 years on two different crisis lines, worked as a walk-in mental health counsellor, and have been working in justice services recently doing release from custody case management and court support. I'm hoping it works out this year, because I don't think I'll be trying again lol
radiatepositivity Posted April 7, 2020 Author Posted April 7, 2020 Thats amazing! I think you have more than enough experience. Also you do have an undergrad so that may work in your advantage
MSW2020lm Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 Hi! Thought I would join the conversation! I have applied to two MSW programs previously with no success. My gpa is rather low. I thought about applying to the Dal online BSW. I think it is a good option to improve my grades and go into an advanced standing MSW. I wonder how competitive the Dal BSW is.
radiatepositivity Posted April 22, 2020 Author Posted April 22, 2020 Hi! that's what I am wondering as well. I applied to dal full time BSW however, I am hoping it isn't as competitive as other schools
radiatepositivity Posted April 22, 2020 Author Posted April 22, 2020 I feel like dal also take forever to come up with their decisions. Most school said end of april by dalhousie is mid May
MSW2020lm Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 I was told by admissions they have around 85 spots and 260 applicants for the online program. I am worried because I just reach the B- in the last 2 years of my undergrad (minimum requirement) however I have four years experience working in the field. She also said they are looking for a balance between academics, statement, experience and references. Fingers crossed to you all. I will be applying for 2021, and other MSW programs. Have any of you looked into UManitobas online BSW?
radiatepositivity Posted April 29, 2020 Author Posted April 29, 2020 Best of luck to you, I just genuinely dislike how they are not going to get back to us till mid May! I am waiting on Carleton and I just made the minimum gpa requirement (B) for them. They are starting to reach out to people this week! No I have not looked into Manitoba but if I do not get in this year I am going to figure out another plan!
lvande94 Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 To those of you that have applied for Dal’s online BSW program, I just found out I was accepted! My status changed on the application page, no email has been sent yet though. Best of luck to everyone else who has applied! :)

Did your status change from ‘written notifications to follow’ to ‘accepted’? Mine is still the same ‘written notifications to follow’. Wonder if they have finished updating the status or still working on it?
