NoMoreABD Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 Good luck aber_leider! Keep us posted. I'm going crazy I see other international applicants getting answers from other PhD programs in the schools I applied to. I know each program is different, but still, it's nerve racking... I think I might contact them next week. Will probably consult the forum about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aber_leider Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 And so the weekend passed and I got to call the graduate assistant... to many international applicants, bla bla bla. Well At least I won't be waiting for Canadian decisions anymore. Already was accepted to Waterloo. Any of you can give me some info about UW reputation on applied math? It has a very strong reputation in Mexico, but I wish to know how Canadians view it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poppet Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I called the University of Toronto today regarding my Masters application to the Department of Political Science - They said that the admissions committee met last week and were to submit their list of probable applicants today. This list is expected to be finalized by Friday, with the first round of offers going out early next week. Applicants will be notified via email. Fingers crossed!

Does every program have a different adcom each or is there just one adcom for all programs? Peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtncffts Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Does every program have a different adcom each or is there just one adcom for all programs? Peace. The former. Each program or department has its own admissions committee. From what I gather, it's usually five faculty members, sometimes a grad student, often 'headed' by the graduate program director, and representatives from each subfield (I guess this depends on the discipline).

very_cool_orangutang Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Anyone here has any idea about Physics applications decisions? Anyone heard back from the departments? Any idea when the results may show up? Seems to me that all results are coming out...but few or none from the Physics department. Peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finance Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Has anyone heard anything from UBC (Sauder) MSc Finance program? I saw someone posted that he/she got admitted to the program. Does anyone know how much they usually admit each year? Thanks so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poliscijunkie Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi all, I have heard from UBC MA political science - rejection. Was my first response on March 7 via email. Still waiting to hear from: UVic UT UWO SFU To the poster above with UWO acceptance, was it PhD stream or MA? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calum Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Canadian schools are especially frustrating. They don't have any obligation to notify us in time for us to make decisions by April 15th and they seem to be TERRIBLE at keeping applicants up to date. Some of my schools only notify by MAIL, others only use the online notifying to post acceptances and rejections, not where they are in the admissions process. One of my schools won't even be getting back to applicants until MAY. UGH!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahhhhhhh ok well here is hoping they are accepting PhD prior to MA. Yes, I have been checking my student centre at least once a day (if not more so...) That is very quick turn around for your acceptance though! My app was due Feb 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoMoreABD Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 Woke up to find an email from UBC (I'm 10 hrs ahead of the school). The first response I get and it's a rejection [sCARP PhD] I feel awful. I thought this was the school for which I had the best chance of being accepted. I'm completely discouraged right now. Good luck for the rest of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck for the rest of you. Don't despair! Maybe the department sensed that it wasn't the best match for your interests, or that it wouldn't end up being high on your list of priorities? At any rate, it still sucks, and I'm sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Bean Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) Is it okay to email the grad secretary of a Canadian institution to enquire about admission status? I've received admissions from USA schools and the reply deadline for one of them is 3rd April. Looking at previous years, decisions from my programs have ranged from anywhere between 10 March to 25 May (there were only 5). It's a masters program and Ph.D applicants started hearing 3 weeks ago.
