I also see an invited status on ACORN for the advanced standing program, but I am afraid to believe it until I get the official letter.

Congratulations everyone, I hope good news is coming your way ?

Same here, I see it for myself as well. But like you, I don't want to believe it until I get the official letter.

To those who have an "invited" in their ACORN (advanced standing)- would you mind sharing your experience in the field?

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.

You definitely can. I did that yesterday and they were so great at responding. 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!!

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!

I just got invited to advanced standing MSW at UofT on Acorn!

Quick question, my Acorn says “You do not have any enrolled courses for 2021 Winter” am I looking at the right section ? Thanks

This was what I needed to hear. Thank you for your input!

Does anyone know in years past if the 'invited' on acorn happens for everyone who is admitted? I'm taking not having mine changed as a rejection but I'm not sure if it's a sure thing
