Just received a call from McGill as well; my application still says 'in review', however. They did say it should change to 'application recommended', so I guess it may take a while for the change to show on UApply.

Hello SLP friends,
I've been reading through these forums for about 3 years now. Like many of you, SLP is my passion. Not a day has gone by that I haven't thought of SLP. I view all of my work, life and educational experiences through an SLP lens. This is my second time applying to SLP. Last year's refusals gave me motivation to push forward and do everything I could to improve my file. I've come a long way over the last three years since discovering this career. I am proud of what I have accomplished, all of the improvements I have made to my file and I really, really  hope that the McGill admissions committee will recognize this!!
It is so encouraging and inspiring to read through everyone's posts and see how passionate you all are about this field. 
I'd like to remind everyone who may receive refusals over the next few weeks, that this does not define your potential to be a great SLP one day. There are so many awesome applicants and such a limited number of seats available. Strong applications are rejected every year. 
A little word of encouragement: Keep your chins up! If you are refused admission this year, don't dwell on the disappointment. Use it as motivation to push forward! Grades do not define everything, experience counts and improvement can always be made.  I strongly believe that applying a second or third time shows character and commitment. 
I hope that everyone gets admitted to the program of their choice!
 

At around 2 pm Montreal time! And thanks!! Still pinching myself ahah

Hello hopeful SLPs! I'm a current second-year student at the McGill SLP program. We just got some info that I thought this thread could benefit from. I don't know if this information has been publicized yet, but I wanted to make sure it was out there ASAP.
Quebec has changed some laws to do with criminal record checks, and it means two main things for our program, as I understand it:
- The program has CLOSED applications for international students, at the very least for the 2018-2019 school year but possibly longer.
- Practicum placements for the 2018-2019 school year will be delayed until the Winter 2019 semester for first-year students. This is a huge change to the practicum schedule and to be honest, I would not want in on this.
This is all to do with having to have a criminal record check from Quebec, for which you need a Quebec address.
I've passed this along to you guys because if I was an incoming student, I would very much want to know this for making a decision about which school I would attend. In my book, this would be a dealbreaker.

Very wise words! I was rejected twice before finally receiving an acceptance on my third round of applications. It was definitely frustrating, but it means so much knowing that I'm now in the program that I worked so hard for.
