swrk Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I was wondering if any of you from this thread attended the post-grad BSW at Waterloo? If you can send me a PM telling me your experience there. How classes are run? structuring? class sizes? assignment/test load? What did you like/dislike about Waterloo/Renison? What was surprising or new to you? Thanks and any insights are very appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christina2 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Hello Everyone! I am wishing everyone good luck this week!!! I truly think we should hear something since it is the first week of April!!! Also, I am going slightly crazy because I have heard not one thing back yet! No acceptances, rejections or waitlists..... Christina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash_d19 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Happy Monday everyone - I hope it's an especially happy monday and we start to hear good news back! Definitely am developing a bad habit checking ROSI and MyuWindsor Lol even on weekends when I really don't expect updates. It's getting as bad as checking facebook. Good luck everyone!

chasethecat Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I join the boat of having checked this thread and my email multiple times already this morning...I don't have the excuse of having a day off though, oops! I should probably get back to trying to concentrate on work...for ten minutes until I need to check my email again. I really, really hope to hear from Laurier today! *crosses fingers, knocks on wood* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettyg Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 It's almost 4 pm here. I was checking this thread at 9 am my time even though I knew you would all be sleeping! Fingers crossed for us this week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Social Work 93 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I also truly think we will hear from U of T and Laurier this week! Good luck everyone! Remember to post if you hear anything so we can all stay in the loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leah_N Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Hi Everyone, I should introduce myself since I have already posted on here. I have applied to 2 year MSW programs in the west and a few in the east. I live in west. I think Laurier is my top choice but at this point I just want to get in anywhere.I have an A- average and about 5000 experience hours, 95% of it is paid, I am a youth worker. During my undergrad I worked for 2.5 years as a research assistant, I was hoping this would help me get into UofT but like a lot of you, I am still waiting to hear back. Anyhoo, I just called Laurier and they said results will go out mid-April. This is such a bummer, on their website they say early April and the previous 2 years they sent results out between late-March. I hope the lady was just saying that as the worst case scenario, I was hoping this week would be the week... Good luck to everyone who is still waiting!

purplegrey Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 That is such a bummer! I really thought we would hear from Laurier this week. Well I guess, we need to keep waiting.

nutella14 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Has anyone here received and accepted an offer to York? I accepted last week and sent in my deposit. Interested in chatting with anyone else attending in the fall! Send me a PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSW-Waiting4It Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 For those of you who have been accepted to the 2-Year MSW @ U of T, did you status ever change to "decision made" on the https://apply.sgs.utoronto.cawebsite? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMetallo Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Ahh noo I was so hoping to hear back from Laurier this week! . Now we have to wait another two weeks. BTW I just wanted everyone to know I also applied to the U of T Counseling Psychology program as well and got my rejection letter on Friday, but my sgs status still says under review. SO it looks like they don't update that part often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ishaess Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Hey guys, So I just called YorkU. Not sure where someone else heard all the spots were filled but I was told that is not the case. They are working on rolling admissions, so as much as it doesn't feel like it, at this point no news is good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are working on rolling admissions, so as much as it doesn't feel like it, at this point no news is good news. Did they say when ALL decisions would be out by chance? I just ask this because in previous years forums sometimes the schools will give a specific date (like I think UofT last year said April 6 all results would be out? So they may have a definite date this year too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As background, I got my acceptance to York on March 18th and had until April 1st to submit my deposit. So maybe there will be another wave as they see who accepts/declines.

MostlyM Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Did they say when ALL decisions would be out by chance? I just ask this because in previous years forums sometimes the schools will give a specific date (like I think UofT last year said April 6 all results would be out? So they may have a definite date this year too) I scrolled back to last years forum and and saw that people commented saying that April 6 or 7 was the date that all answers would be mailed out. Assuming that they are doing the same thing this year (LETS HOPE) that is in one week. At this point, I am finding it so hard to remain optimistic and I just want an answer so I can move on. I am literally sick about this, I have no motivation at all. Need. Answers. Now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, just curious because you indicated that you "had" but I also noticed you have not yet heard from U of T either.

I hope the lady was just saying that as the worst case scenario, I was hoping this week would be the week... Good luck to everyone who is still waiting! So much conflicting information!! The email from when they received my application said "early April". I wonder if they told you mid-April to cover themselves if it takes a little longer than this week? I also just realized it said they'd send out by email, which is nice because the LORIS admissions site is super annoying and I have no idea where it would show up there either. I'm going to be honest, I'm feeling no hope around Laurier right now, but I'd still like to know, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, just curious because you indicated that you "had" but I also noticed you have not yet heard from U of T either. Congratulations on your offer to York I accepted my offer to York.... and I'm still waiting to hear from U of T. I'm 99% sure I'll attend York. I just want to see if I get in to U of T, not because I'll go but more out of curiosity, I guess (to see if I get in or not, I mean). No matter how I look at it, though, it would cost me about $30,000 more to attend U of T. I got $21k in funding from York, and U of T's tuition is $9-10k more than York. And I wouldn't get any money from U of T... so that's a ~$30k difference. So even if I do get into U of T, I just really wouldn't be able to justify it in my head. York wasn't my top choice but it's a good program and has sort of unfolded as an amazing/unexpected opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the lady was just saying that as the worst case scenario, I was hoping this week would be the week... Maybe they meant that all results would be out by mid-April? I seem to recall from past threads that the results were a bit staggered the past couple of years, with acceptances being emailed out over a few days, and then waitlists/rejections snail mailed out a week or so later...so maybe we'll still get good news this week! I don't know if it's better to hope for that, or to assume it won't happen and try to forget about it for the next week, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
