I'm not sure I would say it's more or less likely for them to accept it. If they're holding on to it, then it's likely they have a more preferred school and haven't been accepted there yet (or are waiting for funding info). So, they keep their current offer as a backup plan, but don't want to jump the gun. If they've got multiple offers, then one would hope/think they would decline all but the best offer they've received so far. I'm also in the wait-list boat (looks to be my only shot), but I generally wouldn't expect to know your fate until April, unfortunately. That's when funding information will be released, and when people will need to start making final decisions on their offers, so there will be a lot of shifting around in terms of wait-lists/offers - hopefully enough to push us to the front of the line!

No idea what it could mean. It still says "Received by administrator" like before, just with the updated date. It might just mean that the decision has been reached for that school, but not the others?
-
Congratulations! Good for you, and so nice to hear a success story even after a lot of rejections. Encouraging

Hmm.. Looks like that happened to me as well (just 1 school). Odd.
-
I'm assuming other people got an email this morning saying their CGS M application status had changed, only to enter the portal and find that everything is the exact same? >:(

Ah - sounds like it just depends on the prof then. Sorry to hear and thanks for the info!

Question for you based off your signature - were you interviewed at U of Regina? You have it crossed off, but orange like for the other places you interviewed. I'm waitlisted there, but was told I would be interviewed only if I come up from the wait-list.
-
Well said. Likely won't be applying there next year if I'm not accepted anywhere. So disorganized and uninformative (including when I sent questions to the graduate office) - felt like throwing $100 down the toilet! Good to know, thanks!
-
Me too. Saw it yesterday. Not even a rejection letter filled with the usual platitudes! :/

Email from POI - was told I would be interviewed if moved up from the waitlist. I never received any official confirmation/letter though and application status is unchanged.
-
Shot in the dark - is there anyone here who was accepted at either U of Manitoba or U of Regina and is not/probably not accepting? Please have mercy on the waitlisted!
-
I didn't even end up applying to Concordia (but made an account and was considering it), and I was getting these annoying emails. Unsubscribed

Crickets from both.

Hmm... I just checked the results page for last year and it looks like offers were going out around this time last year. Perhaps we will hear back soon after all...?
-
I don't even know if I want to attend there any more, but has anyone heard from Lakehead University by chance (which seems to have the least popular accredited clinical program in Canada - haha)? I have heard absolutely nothing, and seemingly no one has discussed it on this forum either. The application has said "under review" for months now...
-
I do - she is now a very successful/respectable clinical psychologist (wait-listed and admitted at SFU). Granted that was 20-ish years ago, but still... I am also on two wait-lists - trying to be prepared for both outcomes! Also, what this person said
-
I am in the same position as you, so I can't exactly speak for those who have been offered entry, but I would strap yourself in for waiting until April. This is when the results of CGS are released, and many people who have received offers may themselves be on a waitlist for a more preferred university. It sucks having to wait so long
-
Imposter syndrome to the max! No, I'm pretty sure the vast majority of people starting out in clinical programs do not have an MA (and looking at program stats for certain universities that provide enough information, most people are entering from the BA level). You're worrying too much, and it seems to me if anything getting in from the BA level would be more impressive than from the MA level

Thank you for the info. That is very weird. Maybe they've wasted so much time on the technical problems that they've just given up on doing anything else admissions-related XD

Sorry to hear I know positive thinking only goes so far (and it's only natural to have some lapses), but I do think we need to try and keep things in perspective - being waitlisted means you are a good candidate. I learned earlier today that my honours thesis adviser attended her university after being admitted off a waitlist, so there definitely is still hope!

Waitlisted at University of Manitoba. Disappointed would be an understatement. Anyone know if it's acceptable to ask about waitlist length/rank? I don't want to pester, but also don't feel I can handle spending another 2 months in the dark.
-
Sorry to hear - at least you got accepted somewhere though (based off your signature)
-
Ah. What a tease that would be!
-
Yeah, now that's just one more thing to obsessively check every few hours! I did see something odd though - someone was supposedly accepted to U of M before the application deadline, so that makes me sort of question the accuracy of some of the reports, unless it's some sort of delayed admission. I digress...

Thank you! I... had no idea about this :/
