I applied with a 4.0/4.33 GPA. I had 2 publications, was a TA as an undergrad, and had 900 hours of placement (relevant to SW). I didn't have any external social work paid work experience other than being a research assistant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They spent time giving me details and it gave me a sense of ease to know it was just having more experience. I'm also just finishing my BSW so I what you're feeling. Hang in there, I was rejected while finishing my BSW. I worked for 2 years and got in to Waterloo!! So you just need that little bit, to be honest, you'll get a lot out of being able to build on your field experience and also the break from school was nice!!

tea latte 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 17 hours ago, mswcanada2021 said: I found out via quest that I was denied entry into Waterloo’s msw program - this is my first time applying and the only school I applied to plus I’m just finishing up my BSW right now so I wasn’t too hopeful. Does anyone know if I can contact admissions and ask for the reason why so I can use it for future applications? This happened to me with Laurier, Western and Waterloo coming out of my BSW. Since then, I've worked for 2 years and thought I'd give it another shot, I got in to Waterloo this time around! I think if you get rejected, it sucks but you will greatly benefit from some field experience too. Hang in there ♥️ it will all work out! mswcanada2021 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
