jammerz Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 I have also been invited on Acorn to UofT's OT program. I also got admitted to their master of social work program a month ago and it showed "invited" a few days early before the official notification. My ORPAS SGPA is 3.85 and I have a background entirely in social science, with no rehab volunteer experience. My strength was definitely in my personal submissions and academic experience engaging with disability from a social justice perspective (disability studies). I'm trying to figure out between a career in social work or OT now. I doubt anyone is in the same boat, but if you are let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it has to do with that! For other grad programs I applied to, even people who did not get in, were able to login to acorn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early "invited" for myself for social work ended up up meaning acceptance. For my friend who applied to OISE and geography at uoft, both programs also showed "invited" early on. newtoOT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my goodness, I do hope so!! Thank you so much I'm really hoping for Queen's or Western, hopefully this means my application is on the right track - though getting in anywhere would be so amazing!

Basically is me not hearing anything from the school mean I'm on a waitlist or nah? I'm not sure! I have only heard about acceptances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT1996 Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 We are almost at the finish line, going to find out tomorrow midnight!! What factors is everyone considering for which Ontario schools they would choose? I am trying to think about it now since we only get 2 weeks to accept our offer. For those that got "invited" for UofT what are your thoughts on going to the Mississauga campus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
