Incredible references from UofT graduates (professors) and directors, well-written statement and B+ statistics with over 10,000 hours employed in the field with a focused research plan....Not sure what they're looking for.

To the post below: I am still waiting to hear from the Sociology department. I think that they are still deciding and sorting through applications. If you haven't heard yet you can gain admission if a second wave is happening this year, be waitlisted, or denied. Just give it sometime and hopefully we all hear within the beginning of March.

Still waiting to hear and a little disheartened that many here seem to have heard in either direction. Anyone still waiting?

To the other criminology student below: thank you so much for the information, and I'm sorry that U of T didn't admit you. My GPA was less than stellar and one of my referees suggested I revise my statement of interest when I had already submitted it, so it was too late for me to do anything. Doesn't look too good for me. I hope you hear back from SFU soon, and my fingers crossed you get in! Don't lose hope!

Anyone heard anything yet? Applied before the early deadline. We're probably all going to get responses on March 3rd...

ROSI updated to "invited" on Feb 21. Received package via mail on Feb 24.

Where exactly on ROSI did your status change? On the Home Page?

Waiting on official letter, status on ROSI updated to "invited". I believe you can access ROSI/ACORN only if you were a previous U of T student. 3.66 GPA in final year, BEd and BSc, 2 years of teaching experience.

28K fellowship

Good luck to everyone!

Checked my application on the SGS website: "decision made". Nothing's changed on ROSI and no email has been sent. Is this going to be a rejection?? :(

To the other Toronto person - I'm not sure if being on a waitlist is a case here, as they haven't rejected anybody so far. It seems they have a history of sending decisions by snail mail to international applicants. My field is Contemporary Art.

To fellow applicant below, I applied a few days before the deadline too! My professor only submitted a few days before... im quite sad.. now am awaiting results from SFU too and they're more competitive!

Internal applicant. Pretty sure all acceptances for MA and PhD have gone out.

To the "snail mail" poster: still no news! Have we been waitlisted? I hope they aren't going to use mail as I'm currently in Italy! It will take ages and ages and ages! Anyway, which is your research area? Mine is Renaissance/ Early Modern!

Status on ROSI updated to "invited".

Checked ROSI, said "invited" Angela later emailed me and congratulated me with an offer of admission!
