thank you so much!! And no problem- im happy to help (i look to hear for all of my information!!) I have accepted U of T's offer I am from Toronto, so it was my first choice to stay where I have already laid my roots. I happy that this will open up a spot to someone who is waiting though!! Once I figure out how to decline! Best wishes to all

I have also been accepted to U of T's 2 year MSW but my York myfile has also told me that I am "unsuccessful", Also a little puzzled as I did my MA focusing on Equity/Social Determinants of Health, at York which I thought was the style they geared their MSW program towards (also two of my references are profs at York). BUT I am MORE than happy to accept my offer at U of T!!! This was by far my first choice Good luck to everyone!!!

For all of those waiting on York... just found this very recent update on their Twitter account: (i will now be obsessively checking my myfile account! lol) Graduate SocialWork @YorkUgradsowk 33m . @bookluver1965 Offers usually take Admissions a day or two to process. MyFile is updated instantly. Letters then mailed. Graduate SocialWork @YorkUgradsowk 2h . @bookluver1965 The plan is to make a first round of offers, in the two-year MSW program, today.

Thanks so much!! I am ridiculously happy! I will definitely have to celebrate this weekend. I think everyone can relate to the stress and anxiety this application process/ waiting game has caused!!! That sounds like fantastic experience and very unique which could definitely help you stand out. Here is a little bit about my personal experiences.. Bsc in psych GPA around 3.78 MA health policy and equity at York. About an A average Worked and volunteered in long term care homes/ retirement homes since first year university on and off Have been working as a research assistant and coordinator for 2 different research projects at York for the last 2 years (both studies involving health equity and the social determinants of health) I hope this helps! Definitely feel free to private message me if you were looking for any more input!! Good luck to everyone -

Just received my offer in the mail from U of T!!!! I am still on shock - didn't think I had much of a chance considering Carleton and Laurier both wait listed me. Just goes to show you that each school is looking for something a little different. Thanks everyone for being so supportive and positive this is truly such a great group. Best of luck to everyone

Thanks DreamingMSW I guess that is true! Can I just say that this forum is SO refreshing, everyone is so positive and encouraging. I applied to med school the past couple of years, and let me tell you.... those forums are AWFUL! people are so competitive and cut-throat!! Just so nice to see everyone supporting each other, makes me realize why I chose this field

Well I'm just being naive and hopeful lol. I did get the email from admissions saying I was on the wait list but my online status still says "under review" I'm not sure if this will ever update though? My first choice is u of t or York so that I would be in Toronto But the wait list at Carleton definitely discouraged me
