  1. Thanks! At the MPhil level I took a social/cultural geography approach to study. At this level though, I intend on focussing a bit more on political geography--specifically immigration policy and diasporas.
  2. Hi All, I am writing with some GREAT news! Over the Easter weekend I sent a note to the Grad Coordinator at Wilfrid Laurier enquiring as to when applicants would be notified of results.The next working day I received 3 emails one after the other. The first notifying me that I was accepted to the PhD Geography programme! The second the letter to provide to the High Commission to obtain the study permit. The third...CONGRATS on my award of the Ontario Trillium Scholarship!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm thrilled beyond words!!!!!!!!
  3. Anyone knows if Wilfrid Laurier PhD Geography application results are going to be out anytime soon?
  4. This is Crazy....what happened? I'm sorry I didn't get into U of T as well :/ so it goes. Waiting on my 2nd app result. I'm not too surprised at this. The POI advised from the start that they "usually" take just two international students each academic years simply cause the fees are too much.
  5. Thanks for the response autumnreads--I check the results search religiously :/ Unfortunately, my job requires that I be in front of a computer for most of the day--so i'm constantly checking...time I guess...just time!
  6. Guys, this waiting is really doing a number on me. Aside from me checking my email and admissions portals 101 times per day, now i've been DREAMING about it -- as you can imagine, I get up tired :/ PhD Geography applicant here-- U of T and Laurier (any word or inside scoop)? I want to call/email the Offices but I don't want to seem like i'm bombarding them--i'm thinking to wait until the 1st March, which seems like a reasonable time, as applications closed off only at the end of Jan. Thoughts? Also, any suggestions as to how I can help control this anxiety? I'd be grateful Thanks!
  7. Hi Breaks, thanks for the response. Finance--It is quite worrisome when making these decisions. I have applied for a couple grants/scholarships--so i'm hoping there. If I have a choice though, I would choose Laurier simply because my potential supervisor's work is spot on with mine, and she's pretty well recognised all over. But then funding is the issue. I wish you luck in making this decision. Please, let me know which direction you've taken. Thanks!
  8. Hey guys, Recently found this forum. It's so good to find a community that shares the anxieties and happiness as it comes. I applied to 2 Universities for the PhD Geography 1) U of T and 2) Wilfrid Laurier. Does anyone know when they are expected to send their decisions? Thanks!
