I hadn’t heard back from the 2year York program and they emailed me this morning saying they’ve had a delay and are hoping to send a detailed update by the end of next week

Thank you for sharing! Did they send you this email after you emailed them or did they send it unprovoked? Just wondering if I should expect any emails as I have also not heard ?

So…I guess UBCO will be any day now? I can’t believe it’s been this long!

I guess so ? I am so frustrated that it's taking this long ugh! I email on Tuesday just asking if the timeline was still end of April but haven't heard anything yet. I will definitely share any info I get!

Unprovoked! I hadn’t emailed them

To update anyone still waiting to hear from York 2-year MSW, I just got my rejection letter this morning. Really sucks after waiting all of this time just for them to say no ? Hopefully anyone else waiting will get an answer soon (and hopefully It's better than mine!!)

Okay friends, that's it. If I don't hear back from UBCO today, I'm accepting a post-grad BSW.

Come on UBC-O, you told us end of April! I feel like I'm waiting for a first date to text me back lol

it's actually pretty bad that they keep people waiting till the literal last day of April without saying anything. Some folks may be relying on their offer/rejection, it's not right.

I agree. I'm guessing we won't be hearing from them during the weekend. I've also emailed them twice and gotten no response. Quite disappointing

hope that waitlisted uoft appicants will hear back soon in the coming month

Hi everyone! Is anyone still waiting to hear back from Laurier? I'm still waiting to hear back, not for social work, but for a psych MA program, and it feels like an eternity. I also can't seem to access LORIS right now, it keeps giving me an error. Anyone else having this problem?

I am having the same problem with LORIS. I have been trying to complete my application (which is due today) and I am still not able to access the website. It's looking like I won't be able to apply at this rate...

Has anyone inquired to when waitlist offers will go out?

based on previous years and my experience being waitlisted I never heard back not even on sept 1 and didn’t know anyone who did. It isn’t really organized like offers how they go out.. if someone doesn’t attend or gives up their spot it goes to the person on the waitlist and you have I think 48 hours to accept? though there is no way of knowing what spot you’re in or how many people are on it :( it consumes a lot of mental energy and it’s very hard to plan when not knowing.

Waitlist offers will go out until September, and then the waitlist closes after the first week of classes. I read from previous years that they tend to ramp up in the summer. I know a couple of people who got off the waitlist around August.

Hi! I'm still waiting for a response from Laurier as well. I applied to the in-person, MSW, Indigenous Field of Study program. I haven't tried logging into LORIS today, but the last time I did it showed all my submitted documents with the "no further action required" statement. (or something similar to that  ) This has been the status since I submitted back in January. I have been starting to doubt whether I actually submitted everything since I haven't heard anything yet. 

This forum has been really encouraging to read about everyone's experiences. Thanks to everyone for being so candid about the process! ?

as some people received the rejection in early April, i think the rest does not really need to panic about it

I believe it is an internal waitlist...so until you hear back you truly don't know what to expect!

I've emailed them twice now too and still nothing...

Does anyone have any intel about the number of UofT's MSW applicants this year from a rejection letter? 

Curious to know if it was as unusually high as last year's applicant pool!

Not MSW, but received an email from Dal's online BSW program this morning offering an acceptance. Only program I applied to.

Congrats! Do you mind me asking the first initial of your last name? and what time did they send out your offer!
