Does anybody want to add me on Facebook so we can start a group for ualberta slp? Send me a message if you are interested.
Edit: Group is live. Look for "University of Alberta Speech-Language Pathology - Class of 2020"

Is anybody else for sure going to the U of A next year? I officially accepted my offer from them. 

I received an email with an offer from UBC yesterday too, but I will be declining to attend UofA.

I got an emailed acceptance this morning

Got an emailed acceptance to McGill this morning. However, I will be attending the U of A, so a spot should open up for someone on the waitlist. 

By looking at previous posts it appears that they do it over 2 days more or less !

To anyone still waiting on their official letters for UofA, I called Vicki this morning and she said not to worry about it and that it is still coming for those who got an email. She told me that very few have gone out so far and that different people are handling processing for successful applicants with names in different sections of the alphabet, so we shouldn't worry unless it doesn't come by the end of the month. They're also doing their year-end for the department so lots going on there.

@sprklinthe I get that this can be a sore subject, but that's actually why this thread was made. I didn't get in anywhere last year and it hurt. Luckily, there are multiple places to discuss that (and the worry when waiting) on this forum. This thread was specifically created so that there would be a place for those with admissions to let off stress without making those still waiting feel bad. 

Best of luck with your programs! Hopefully, you'll be joining us in worrying over the decision process soon enough! <3 

You guys all being picky when you got admissions with funding when most of us won't even get a single admission...

It is very likely since I already live in Edmonton
 

Mine isn't up yet but hopefully in the next couple of days...

I applied to all three Ontario schools. I'm also feeling very nervous for next Friday when we find out about McMaster interviews. Fingers crossed for all of us who applied!!

For those people panicking about not hearing from the U of A: 
1. Make sure you're checking your ualberta email address if they gave you one (I don't know if they did since I did undergrad there so I had one already).
2. One of my friends who is in second year SLP at the U of A said that the majority of his cohort received acceptance in late March. So you still have an entire month!

I know that this is like the opposite of a problem, but I'm actually finding it quite isolating to be accepted to a school so early. Normally I would share this news on Facebook and tell more of my Ling friends, but I know that like 97% of people are still waiting and I don't want to stress them out.
