    Ok so I haven't received any snail mail from U of T (OISE), but I got an email yesterday, concerning residence..... here is how the beginning of the email goes:

     

    "Dear [my name],

     

    Thank you for your recent application to the School of Graduate Studies, University of Toronto.

     

    We are excited to let you know about an easy, online application for on-campus residence!  In order to apply for on-campus residence (including student family housing) you need to activate your JOINid (details below).   Since on-campus residence space is limited, you are encouraged to complete the application as soon as possible. Blah blah blah"

     

    So my question is, did anyone else receive this email? This is my second round of applications and it is the first time U of T has sent me this kind of email.

    Hey guys, just heard from Ryerson today. Got the sad news. By the sound of it I may also be expecting bad news from OISE (clinical and counselling Psychology).  :(

     

    Out of curiosity, has anyone heard from University of Ottawa (educational counselling program)?  :ph34r:

    when you call, one person tells you something, another tells you something different. All I know is last year when I applied to Ottawa U, I overheard a girl during our Honours conference in May, saying that she had been admitted to Ottawa U's clinical psychology program. So who knows when they'll decide

    I am still waiting on a UOttawa application for the Masters of Education... I saw that someone got in for Educational Counselling (the most competitive concentration) but I was curious if anyone else had heard anything from them. I called a few weeks ago and the person said that because they had double the number of applicants that they had extended the date for decision making until late April/ early May... Any news would be appreciated!

     

    hey there,

    so I got an email from the admissions officer saying that they did not admit me to the M.A (E.D) program but were however prepared to consider my application for the M.ED education counselling stream. Gotta call her tomorrow to confirm.

    Just a quick question-

     

     

    Did the rejection email from Waterloo come directly from your POI, or was it a formal rejection email?

    I'm just dying to hear some concrete news from Waterloo, Ottawa and McGill. 

    The rejection came from a formal rejection email. Sent, let's see Queen's was sent on the 6th Feb, Waterloo on the 15th of Feb just to give you an idea. 

     

    To be honest, I have not given up on Ottawa. No-one anywhere on the forums has posted anything about them (not even in the results section). Even on StudentDoctor nothing from those who applied (to clinical psychology program). Maybe it is because I have all my eggs in one basket, but I am not giving up that this week someone may contact me. 

    I'm not giving up either. This application process is very slow this year compared to last year (this is my second time applying). Everyone has been saying the same thing. So don't give up hope because of what people supposedly heard. 

     

    Story of the day:

     

    Hey, so there was this "dilemma" that happened to me last week. I had applied to Ryerson's clinical psychology program. completed all of the materials and sent it via email as a pdf (as they had asked for) way before the deadline. However, as I began noticing on my my.ryerson.ca account there were still outstanding materials, such as the english proficiency test and some supplementary materials. I called in just out of curiosity and they said that I hadn't completed the statement of interest ??? Luckily I had a computer nearby (mind you i'm at work, this was not lunch time. I had to ask permission to spend a good 15 minutes on the phone with this person) so I checked and lo and behold, of course I had sent it in. So I told the lady on the phone to re-check again. After a couple of minutes of searching, she said "nvm it is here." WTF!

    Oh and as for the english proficiency test, they voided it (obviously, seeing as I grew up in Canada all my life, with documents to prove it). SO FINALLY they sent my application to my profs of interest. 

    they told me that professors at Ryerson will be looking at applicants and will make a decision either by next week or by the beginning of March.

     

    this hasn't been the first Ryerson screwed me over. Last year I had to call (NOTE "I")  them at the end of May to see whether I had been rejected or waitlisted because I hadn't received ANYTHING from them. Obviously I was rejected, the woman who I was speaking with apologized for the lack of communication on behalf of the graduate studies and asks if I wanted them to snail mail a letter of rejection to me. Can anyone explain to me what is wrong with these people? why would I want a letter of rejection if I already know that I'm rejection, especially late in the year! 

     

    Anyway, enough with my rants.

    Deep inside, i'm hoping that this news about uOttawa is wrong. I really don't want to move out of the city, but if I have to then I will. Here's to maybe hearing from a prof this week??? :S

    I received two rejection emails from Waterloo and Queens.
