HopefulApplicant17 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 I just heard from WLU and I did not get in I think I will redo my research and stats course because it was 10 years old and not a high grade. I also just started a new job in mental health and addictions so I’m hoping that will help as well. Has anyone gotten feedback on their application before? The email says they are unable to provide individual feedback but I feel like I’ve seen posts before about specific feedback. Good luck to everyone else who is waiting to hear back!

lisaollie Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Hi all! I'm new to the forum, and appreciate the opportunity to hear others' experiences with the application process. I have just submitted my application to WLU for the IFS and don't expect to hear until March-April. My question for anyone that may have info is regarding the Ontario Graduate Scholarship. Does anyone have experience writing an application that is not research/thesis based? I'm wondering what information the OGS assessors are most keen to learn about. Thanks! And good luck to all!

I'm sorry to hear that you did not get accepted. But sounds like you're already using this as an opportunity to improve your skills/experience for the next admission cycle, which is a great attitude! Good luck with your new job, as it sounds like it will be quite relevant on your CV. Last year, I applied to only two clin psych programs (and no MSW ones). For one program i got to the interview and waitlist stage and was ultimately rejected. Because i had contact with several dept. faculty members, I did end up sending a follow up email for feedback after i was rejected. But for another program, I never received an interview invite and therefore didn't speak to anyone in the department. For that program, I decided not to ask for feedback. So, I would say it's easier to ask for feedback when you've already established some sort of connection/line of communication with the faculty? But not sure what others feel.

makttrrr Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Has anyone had this issue with uWindor MSWwp? My application status has been “processing” since Nov 8th 2021 and recently my application status date has changed on Jan 7th but my application is still “processing”. Any insight would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madamemsw2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Author Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) @makttrrr I am wondering if they have made a decision then, the status date changing seems to be the indicator that folk's applications either have a decision or they have communicated to you in some way. Did you check all of your email inboxes? Edited January 11, 2022 by madamemsw2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBSW2021 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Hey everyone, I just thought I'd share that my status for UWindsor's MSWwp Advanced Standing program has finally changed to "In Process" today. I submitted all my documentation and references on Dec 15th. I hope those who applied earlier than I did hear back soon! Good luck everyone ?

anxiousgirly Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Hey! 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. Pastalini 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
