espressom Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 espressom - Wow! Congrats again! You are getting in everywhere! Do you mind if I ask what your background experience is? Thanks! I graduated with my BSW in 2012. Before and during my degree I volunteered in peer support and in crisis counselling. Since graduating I have worked as a mental health program instructor, health outreach worker and in crisis counselling positions. I am currently a full-time counsellor at a not-for-profit.

espressom Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Oh and I meant to say, my ROSI did change for U of T, I don`t know when it changed but I think I first checked it two days ago. It says "invited." The graduate school application page status never changed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espressom Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Hi everyone! I found out I was accepted to UBC's 2 year program last week. I haven't had a chance to read through the entire thread but so far haven't seen any UBC Vancouver students.. anyone out there or any applicants? Good luck everyone ! I applied to the 1 year MSW program at UBC and haven't heard back yet, I have a friend who heard she was accepted last week I think? So I'm thinking I probably didn't get in there, but still kinda hoping... :-) It would be nice to be in Vancouver for a year! What do you know about the program? Have you heard feedback from students/recent grads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairiegirl2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 @expressom I am not even sure at this point, Alberta makes financial sense for me, however with this scholarship in the form of teaching assistantship/research assistantship would look really good on my resume and give me an opportunity to do research work etc..something that might come in handy in the near future....! I havent made any decisions yet and dont have to respond to calgary until March 4. For now, I am just going to celebrate and enjoy the fruits of my labour! Those applications were torture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol BTW I applied to York, Ryerson and U of T as well.....Havent heard from them as of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenris70 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Hello everyone! I have been creeping this forum for a while and decided to join in the discussion. I applied to 2-year MSW programs and the 1-year HBSW program at Lakehead (as well as 1-year college programs as a back-up to gain more experience). April is so far away! I feel like I'm in Limbo while I hear about my friends getting accepted to graduate or law school. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpalesh Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Well, it's the weekend now. 2 more days with no news. I can't believe how late Laurier is leaving it this year. Here's hoping for good news for everyone on Monday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekss Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hey guys, For those of you logging in to UofT ROSI: What are you using as your student number/ how did you get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpatientlyWaiting Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hey guys, For those of you logging in to UofT ROSI: What are you using as your student number/ how did you get it? You get a UofT student number assigned to you when you apply to any program, regardless of acceptance. To see what yours is, sign-in to your account on the School of Graduate Studies website (where you completed your application), click on "Profile Update" (on the blue ribbon at the top of the screen). Your student number should be displayed near the top of the screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairiegirl2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I think i was locked out of this RoSI thing, I tried signing in too many times. Did anybody else hear from U of T? So far just one person! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smpalesh Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 When mine changed all I did was log in and the very first page said invited, I didn't have to look for it. The people who did not get in it didn't say anything. But that doesn't mean you didn't get in, it seems UofT is doing things a bit differently this year in regards to notifications so you never know.

zebra_mountain Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 For those of you who got into the UofCalgary advanced year, are you starting in the near future? A couple of my coworkers got in through a program at our work. They get to take the program for free but I believe they have to work there for awhile after graduation. She said that they are starting with an intensive week quite soon! So bizarre to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mijj_wa Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Hi everyone, I've been lurking on this forum for awhile, but I wasn't able to post due to a botched registration but I'm finally here! I've applied to two 2 year MSW programs, at Carleton and Laurier. I'm currently located in the Kitchener-Waterloo area but I'm actually hoping for Carleton because I'm from eastern Ontario originally and I'd like to move closer to home. I haven't heard back from either school yet, but I'm impatiently waiting! My status for Carleton has changed to: Review in progress by Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs, so hopefully that means something good!

purplegrey Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 You're both so lucky! Mine hasn't changed yet and I'm also for the 2 year stream .

Bagheera Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Don't give up yet! As long as it doesn't say "declined" or something to that standard then you still have a chance! I'm not getting too hopeful yet... I just want to know the decision!! Ughh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christina2 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Hi Everyone! I'm a long time reader but first time posting. I need to talk to someone else about this waiting game because I think I and driving my family and friends crazy! I've applied to the 2 year program at U of T, Windsor and Laurier. My first choice is Laurier, then U of T and then Windsor. Congrats to all of you who have heard back and good luck to everyone who is waiting it out!! Its so nerve racking that the 2 year applicants will hear back soon!! , Even though I know I won't be hearing back just yet I still check my email a couple times daily, and offer to get the mail daily... ugh the stress of this season.

Jennbe Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Ugh...my windsor application documents for msw for working professionals isn't even showing as received yet!

In your case it is likely that you would receive a conditional offer due to your outstanding coursework. If they had to wait for your grades to come in then everyone's offers would be delayed until all the grades came in because they wouldn't be able to rank the candidates otherwise. They make a decision based on the academic information they have by the application deadline. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
