Remain positive! I was selected and I’m currently on the course. You will have to keep waiting for correspondence I’m afraid, 2 days isn’t that long (I appreciate the anxiety as I had the same once I sent mine off) but yeah just keep waiting and if you are that concerned call them to just double check they have received your application.

Unfortunately, I can’t speak on if you will be selected or how many days as the application process for me was over a year ago now and with that said I had not yet finished my undergrad degree when I applied, I was in my final year so my application was based on predicted qualification. I know people have varied undergrad degrees, it’s more about how you present yourself within your application process in line with the Professional Capabilities Framework and that you understand the ethics of Social work practice, also showing that you have made some effort towards gaining some understanding to what the role of a social worker is and can state why you want to join the field.

My undergrad was within the Healthcare field but that’s not really relevant as I said there’s students from different disciplines, I know of people who have done Art degrees on this course however they have experience within the health and social care sector (as a requirement of the course). There are plenty of international students, Middlesex university has diverse students (within the Sw course too).There were approx 60 students on the course, but once again that shouldn’t really be an indication of anything as they may increase or decrease students within future cohorts. I advise you to search up the old thread for Social Work Ms applications for the 2021 as you will find all the answers there! I hope this has been helpful and good luck 😉
