I can't find anything on here about when people hear from UBC so I'm checking my email a smooth 100+ times a day. Does anyone know anyone or have experience with UBC advanced MSW admissions? For all I know I could be waiting until April and wasting a lot of stress and energy checking my email every 30 seconds (I keep asking myself if I really want to find out while I'm going to the washroom...). Also, I can't find anything on the website 

Let me know if you hear anything! I'm waiting to hear from the advanced MSW at UBC Okanagan. Maybe knowing one of us has heard something from UBC advanced could help ease our minds. I received an email on Feb 6th that said my application was 'under review' so I've been checking my email on the hour ever since. I'm starting to worry.

Mine says "in progress". I haven't been emailed anything and nothing has changed since I applied. Hopefully we both hear something soon - waiting it the worst! I think that there are a couple people who have heard something from UBCO on this thread but I'm not sure if it was advanced or two-year. Definitely give the thread a read through, though!

Good luck!

Hi everyone, I received my acceptance from Carleton University 2-year MSW today around 1pmEST! I AM IN SHOCK. I received the email and the decision was immediately reflected in Carleton Central. 

It is my first time applying and I didn't think I would get in. 

I was offered a $6000 scholarship. I was not offered a TAship, which I was hoping for. Does anyone know if this is even an option for a foundational year student? 

I'm hoping for everyone else's acceptances and looking forward to hearing about them! Hope to meet fellow classmates as well!

Awesome, congratulations! That's incredible... you got the maximum funding too. Only three students with the top GPA's get the TAships, so it's definitely tough.

Well, it’s official. Just got the waitlist email from Carleton. 

My status hadnt changed yet but I’m assuming it will (as the email says) in the next few minutes. 

Congrats to everyone who gets in!! And I guess letms all cross our fingers that it moves at least a bit.

Same! It sucks a bit. I know you're an advanced standing applicant but any chance you know how many people get put on the wait list for either stream?

UofT sent the advanced standing admission responses the Tuesday after Family Day (Feb 21) last year. So I am hoping we hear back from them today (Feb 20)? 

Does anyone know if Carleton advanced MSW has a deposit for accepting the offer or not? 

No deposit for carleton

Hey everyone. Applied for U of T advanced standing. Still under review on SGS. If it weren't for this thread I wouldn't have known I could also get an ACORN/ROSI account hahaha. Thought it was just for housing or u of t alumni.

I see some people have already been invited on the ROSI dashboard. My last name is closer to the end of the alphabet (S). Hoping to hear soon. Anyone else with last names toward the end of the alphabet heard back from U of T advanced standing?

Congratulations!!! I'm not sure if the TAship is applicable to us either but I also got the scholarship which is awesome...see you in September!

I'm at the beginning of the alphabet (D), didn't hear back. I'm wondering if advanced standing goes out in waves? I sure hope so.

That is what I thought too!

I just signed up myself for ACORN/ROSi with JoinID. I'm not U of T alumni either. My dashboard/registration is blank though so not sure if this is the place for people to get results or not. I'll probably rely on getting the official letter.

I know for advanced standing it mentions TAship possibilities right in the admission letter so if it doesn't mention it in yours then it may not be an option.

Has anyone applied to the MSW program at UVIC? I applied to the 1-year program and have been obsessively checking my status, which still says "Under Review by Department" :wacko:

Anyone who applied to U of T advanced please let me know if you've seen your SGS status change from under review to decision made. Seems as though people are getting offers from ACORN first.

Yeah it seems like results go on acorn first. When I applied last year, I got the letter in the mail before my sgs changed to decision made
