There were a few pages included in the package. It comes with a sheet to scan or send back to accept the offer. This needs to be done within 3 weeks (6 if international) of the date on your letter. It also came with a form which says to mail back a tuition deposit of $300 by June 1st to hold your spot. Expand @ALk94 thank you !!! @rabschaud oh man.. I live in Mississauga too and I didn't get it yet..... I only applied to MT, did not apply to the other. Which one are you going to pick?

I know pretty much everything about the MA CSE program, but almost nothing about the MT program. Expand I

Toronto2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 For those of you who were accepted into both the MT program and the MACSE program-- are we able to confirm a spot in each program until the deposit is due?

"The Child Study and Education (CSE) program offers a two-year, non-thesis MA that qualifies graduates to teach in elementary schools (Kindergarten to Grade 6) in Ontario. Our combination of teacher education and graduate degree training is intended to produce teacher-leaders who can apply research and theory in child study to their careers as educators. The MA CSE program and our faculty are part of the Department of Applied Psychology and Human Development at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto." http://www.oise.utoronto.ca/ics/M.A._Program/MACSE_Program_Welcome/ ------------------------ I believe the Master of Teaching does require you to write a thesis. My friend is in the program right now and she is writing one: "Graduate Research Over the two years of the program, you will complete a research project on a topic related to teaching and learning. Prior research experience is not a requirement or an expectation for admission to the program. Your research project will examine both the educational theory relating to a topic and its practical application to teaching. You will be carefully guided through the project." http://www.oise.utoronto.ca/mtnew/About_Our_Program.html ----------- Don't quote me on this though... there might be other differences....

cutekittens Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 My friend wants to log in to Acorn to see if she got accepted. How can she log in if she is not a U of T student? Does she have to speak to someone at University of Toronto to be able to login? Or will she not be able to log in?

Expand Basically what SanaAbu said. You can find your student number under the profile tab on the OISE application website (the site where it should still say 'under review"). You can use that student number to login to ROSI (just Google rosi UofT to get there). You can also use your JoinID found in a previous email from UofT to login to ACORN. Good luck to your friend!
Honggil Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 If we have not got anything in the mail but sgs application still says under review assuming because it's not updated... are we rejected?

Expand Not necessarily. I called last week and they said not all the letters were sent out on March 1st and decisions are still being made and it takes them a long time to do things. I think if you're worried, you should call and ask them - they won't be able to tell you about your specific application but they can assure you of these things I mentioned. It definitely has helped me ease my anxieties about the wait. Good luck. The wait is tough... Honggil 1
Honggil Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Many thanks! The wait is tough lol... And sgs application status seems to be behind.

rabschaud Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 I asked around and 99% of people say to do the MA CSE program (if you've been accepted to both). Apparently much more organized, helpful in the future, more well-respected, and overall just a better program. A friend from high school is currently in the program and she said her classmates enjoy their program much more than the MT students.
