FingersCrossedMSW Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Got accepted into advanced standing MSWwp at UWindsor today! Application info for anyone interested: first In Process date was November 8, then date changed to January 7. I had about 30,000 hrs of experience and 10.74 (or 3.9) GPA in my BA and 4.0 in my 1-year BSW at Renison (will be done this June). Good luck to everyone!! I also applied to Renison, and part time to Laurier, but Windsor was my first choice so accepted the offer. Would love to connect with others going to Windsor next fall as well!!

I can't believe I'm just learning now that Renison has a one year bsw! If you dont mind me asking, what date was your mswwp application fully submitted?

If you dont mind me asking, what date was your mswwp application fully submitted? It’s a one year post-grad program, often paired with their SDS degree. But I did my undergrad at Laurier, just needed to have a BA including 10 specific prerequisite courses for admission to the BSW (and grades, experience, etc., it’s a competitive program). I was granted equivalency for some courses (like my psych stats courses), and cross registered at UWaterloo to get some others. My application was submitted in full November 7. I think I applied October 22. Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also submitted Nov 7 but mine didnt process until Nov 23, and then again Jan 28 so hopefully I hear back soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StressedToTheMax Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I applied for this coming September to Laurier but had some challenging circumstances come up. Does anyone know much about their deferral process? On their form if says that if a deferral is denied, they decline your offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetpotatorollgirl Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) Hey everyone! I’ve really enjoyed reading other’s progress updates through the application process and feeling the support from this community. So many motivated and ambitious future social workers here, each with unique professional / educational experiences. Love to see it! I wanted to chime in and say that I received my acceptance to Dal’s 2-year, non-BSW entry last Friday, Feb. 11th! I also live in Halifax and my last name starts with “C” so it very well could be alphabetical. @greenteaicecream that’s beyond frustrating you haven’t received that darn letter yet, especially living so close to their building. I hope that letter either comes to you soon or maybe you can touch base with the Graduate/ SW department about re-mailing it or inquire when they plan to update the online portal. Best of luck to everyone still waiting for Dal’s letter or to hear from other programs Edited February 16, 2022 by sweetpotatorollgirl greenteaicecream, EMWC, ChipDip and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMWC Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Ok so weird turn of events. I just got a letter from Dal (may have arrived yesterday I am not sure) and its not an acceptance.. not a refusal.. not a waitlist.. a conditional acceptance? Has anyone received something like this? The Master of Social Work Admissions Committee is pleased to notify you that it has recommended acceptance of your application to the Dean, Faculty of Graduate Studies [...] Although the School has recommended your admission to the Dean, the final decision on your admission including any conditions related to it will be made by the Faculty of Graduate Studies. If our recommendation for your admission is approved, the University Registrar will email you an official letter of acceptance in the coming weeks. I mean, I am not complaining, but maybe they could have waited until a decision had been made before sending a letter?

The sw faculty recommends you to be accepted, the faculty of graduate studies confirms your credentials that you provided are legitimate and then you are officially accepted Edited February 16, 2022 by veronica58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
