2 Year MSW Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 6 minutes ago, whatdidigetinto said: I applied to the online program and still haven't heard anything at all. No email, no LORIS update ... I'm guessing since no one else has that no news is good news? (but frustrating) Me too, apparently we are supposed to hear back from the online program today or tmrw. I am hoping it will be a little easier to get into the online program since it is fairly new and the window to apply was quite small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think it would be wise to do a post degree and then a msw ? Or go directly into the msw? I’m really scared to enter uoft because of its clinical framework as well- but also whether or not the profs are supportive - my ultimate goal is to work with youth and young adults with mental health and I know a few people who have done so in the social justice and diversity stream. I also had accessibility at Ryerson where I did my previous undergrad and they were so amazing in providing accommodations & I really hope uoft does the same. Am I the only one whose this nervous and worried? Or are a lot of you on the same boat? Im waiting to hear from york & mac for their post degrees but let’s see what happens ; my anxiety is is blowing the roof off I got into UofT and I'm just finishing up my undergrad. If it makes you feel better, there's someone else in the same situation as you. I have many friends who did the 2 year msw program right after their undergrad and they had no complaints.

Am I the only one whose this nervous and worried? Or are a lot of you on the same boat? If I were in your position, I would take the MSW in a heartbeat! This is such a great opportunity you have been given! I'm honestly quite confused about what this person is talking about. By that logic, if organizations don't think MSW grads are ready to work in the field, then these organizations certainly won't think that BSW grads are ready to work in the field. You may not get your perfect dream job right out of school, but very few people do. No matter what you graduate with, BSW then MSW or just MSW, the degree will get your foot in the industry. It's how you build your career that will determine where you end up working. cat_not_kitty and ashketchum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy that we will hear a definitive answer this week because, seriously.... this roller coaster of waiting for an answer, becoming resigned to the fact that I wasn't getting in, then hearing that I still had a chance, is driving me insane. I refresh this page, my email, and the UofC login several times daily. I just want to know so I can move on with my life. I'm sure others feel the same, so I just wanted to get that off my chest!!

This is regarding the 2 yr MSW program at Laurier. They have an online option which takes 2.5 yrs and an on-campus program that takes 2 years. no clinical/leadership streams lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes you feel better, there's someone else in the same situation as you. I have many friends who did the 2 year msw program right after their undergrad and they had no complaints. For those who get waitlisted from U of T, is it simply because there aren't enough spots, or is there something we are missing that the accepted applicants had? I am noticing a couple people getting accepted right out of their undergrad with similar qualifications to mine, yet I was waitlisted. I am hoping some people reject their offers so I have a chance of getting in this year, but it is kind of disheartening to see people who are almost of equal qualifications to you getting accepted. Makes me wonder what exactly U of T is looking for. foxstock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 Year MSW Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I was honestly expecting a lot more people to hear back today because there are a lottt of people who applied to laurier's 2 year program. Like someone said earlier, maybe just people with scholarships got notified? SW Sevante 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
