ChipDip Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I’m kinda confused, my York application status already says “unsuccessful” but there is no other information. Last year I didn’t hear back until April so I can’t tell if this is a mistake or if it was that bad that it’s already unsuccessful lol…has this happened to anyone else?

angelicpiano Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Does anyone know how good of a program McGuill is? I want to apply and become a clinical social worker, hopefully in a hospital, but have not heard much about the program. I speak French, which is a big reason I am interested in the program.

angelicpiano Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Just wondering how competitive I am for the one year master's. Applying next year. I did not have super high grades in my first bachelor's. I have an 87 average in my BSW. It is considered 4.0 at U of T. For experienced, I have ten hours from a temporary volunteer position where I called clients in the Mental Health and Addictions unit of the community health centre, to do a patient services evaluation and feedback. Other then that I tutored French for a while. I volunteered at non-profits at my uni, ran a club as an exec and now have a research assistant position with a social work prof. The total hours is probably around 2000 for everything. I am planning to apply to the advanced standing programs at U of T, UWindsor, York and McGill. My top choices are U of Toronto and McGill for clinical social work. Do I stand a chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cassieb Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Does anybody know where on the WLU site they will post admission decisions? Carleton has a "status" section but Laurier just brings you to your application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely disappointed but I'm trying to remain positive as I still have 2 other schools to hear back from and this is my first year applying. I applied to 2 year programs. never stop dreaming 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLMSW2022 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 @Cassie Bohm I asked the admission advisor before. If you applied for Sept 2021 and you are a non-bsw you will hear back in May. I think for those who have a bsw it's in Feb/Mar. They are currently releasing the results of the May cohort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not know if anyone has said anything but my Carleton application status changed to "recommended for assessment" so the department is now reviewing it. I am not sure when this changed because I try to only check my applications once every week or two until mid february. mine has said recommended for assessment for a while now too (I applied to the two year) it will change to 'in review by postdoctoral department' etc etc when they are actually reviewing it. It seems that based on previous years after you see this it is about a 3-4 day turn around for acceptances, so I have my hopes on feb 17 they will release. never stop dreaming 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChipDip Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Hey everyone, just to update about the “unsuccessful” message I had on MyFile. I emailed the school and ended up having to call them and they said that if there is a notice already on MyFile, it means that you didn’t meet the admission requirements. For me they said it was my GPA wasn’t a B+ (which I know it is, and I didn’t have this issue last year). I had them reassess it since I also did courses in the fall to upgrade my GPA since my final semester was pass/fail due to studying abroad. I got an email today saying that after they reassessed it I do meet all requirements, including GPA, and that it was indeed a mistake and I am still being considered for the program. So long story short, if you feel something is off about your application or anything you’ve received, reach out to them! roughclub, Pastalini, T.O.hopeful and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
