For the MSW though right beneath where it says "If you want to go back to the application management page click here" in big black letters it should say "status update" with a link to view the update where an official letter will be! I'm assuming it'll be the same for the MEd update! Where it says submitted on the application management page might not necessarily change! I hope that makes sense!

stillpsych Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 in other news, I think I'm going to pursue the Yorkville MA... ultimately, I just want to be a therapist and have a private practice, exactly which program gets me there doesn't matter as much and it allows me to work full time and possibly graduate with 0 debt! lol just looking at the bright side carlrogersfan98, ManukaHoney, SophD and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah I see, yeah it doesn’t show that for the MEd application but maybe it’ll show up once there is an actual status update. Thanks for sharing!

Yorkville has produced very successful practitioners that were able to secure jobs post graduation - same as any other public university! At the end of it all that matters is that you can get registered to practice. Whether that comes from a public uni or a private one, it shouldn’t matter! Everyone’s path to success is different wishing you all the best!! stillpsych, CrypticAngel, SophD and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManukaHoney Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I am just gonna rant a little bit..i find it weird that they are sending out rejections first? From my understanding usually they send out acceptances, then wailists and finally rejections? This is super confusing and I know I am over thinking everything now but my day has been put on hold. I JUST WANT TO KNOW what this life-altering decision will be. psyc2022 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I JUST WANT TO KNOW what this life-altering decision will be. So, it's not that unusual for rejections to be sent out first. Often if someone doesn't meet the minimum criteria/cutoff, schools will send out rejections to those people first before acceptances/waitlists. I don't necessarily know if that's what is happening now but I do know of other programs during this admissions cycle that sent out rejections first for those reasons. carlrogersfan98 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just weird that it took them 6 months to send out rejections for the cutoff criteria etc.. Also, I am just speculating but I think there may be hope for those who are on wait lists. Because it took them so long to get back to students, many had to accept offers from other universities because they weren’t sure if there would hear back form OISE…so I am *speculating* that there will be a few people coming off the wailists since a few who will be accepted will probably have to decline OISE’s offer of admission. However, I WAS wondering that for those who already accepted an offer from another uni, can they withdraw from the program and accept UofT’s offer later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I WAS wondering that for those who already accepted an offer from another uni, can they withdraw from the program and accept UofT’s offer later I’m pretty sure they are able to withdraw their confirmation of acceptance for another school upon an acceptance from a second school. However some may lose out on any deposits made as those are usually non refundable. That might stop them from changing their decision even after being accepted to UofT. Therefore I don’t think many on the waitlist will make it off as that’s been the pattern for the past several years. I’ve also heard that there’s only space for 10 people on the waitlist so it seems like UofT is aware that the likeliness of moving off the waitlist is quite slim as most people usually accept their acceptances even after accepting elsewhere. Just my thoughts though I could be totally wrong!! optimisticfutureinpsyc and T.O.hopeful 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh, if I get in I likely won't be accepting, I got in to my top choice elsewhere and Toronto is so expensive and far from my family! Yeah reputation is cool and all but it's not really that important when it comes to our end goal, which is getting our credentials and registering as a psychologist. optimisticfutureinpsyc and ManukaHoney 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzandcoffee Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 Just wanted to let people know that I originally accepted my U of L offer but recently declined it. I got off the waitlist for my number one choice! So, there should be a spot that opened for U ofL. kaIIi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
