    SLPwug got a reaction from maroo7 in 2019 Canadian SLP Thread   
    Hey @maroo7!
    I am a first-year SLP student at UBC right now and was accepted as an out of province applicant! I am from Manitoba! There are 36 students in our cohort and about 7 of us are from out of province. There are a few of us from Montreal, Manitoba, and Alberta, so they do reserve some spots for us, which is great. 
    Hope that helps :)

    Just got an acceptance letter from UBC! That means a spot will open up on the waitlist for Dal  
    Also, words of advice for 2nd/3rd timers applying...I know rejection hurts but being rejected by 4 schools last year made this acceptance sooo much sweeter.
    Any other UBC goers?!

    Hey, I rejected Dal by the deadline (Apr 7) and I received an automatic e-mail response saying they will be out of the office until the 14th. So, hopefully waitlisters will start getting emails then

    Just wanted to put some more positivity out there! Last year, I was rejected by four schools...
    This year, I applied to U of A, UBC, Dal, and Western(again).
    I have received acceptances from UBC, Dal, and Western! Rejection from U of A...I see a lot of people posting their acceptances and if you are someone who didn't receive an acceptance this year...try, try, try again! Please don't give up because I know that there were times I felt like I wanted to...just try to focus on working harder to impress admissions next year!

    I AGREE 100%!! This is my FOURTH year applying and I was finally accepted to a couple schools and still rejected from others. But I'm happy to say that I'll be starting my education in the Fall and in 2 short years I'll be an SLP! Don't give up if it's really something you want to pursue! You can do it!

    I would say email them and ask for clarification! I know I'm going to DAL so I didn't think to much about it. I've emailed questions to admissions before, they're very friendly and helpful!

    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!

    hey everyone!
    I thought I would share my experiences from applying to schools in 2017 & 2018! Just in case it could help anyone. I applied last year to McGill, Western, McMaster & U of T. I was still still finishing up pre-reqs when I applied. I did not get accepted to any of them, however, I did get invited to the interview at McMaster. It was a tedious and nerve-wracking process, but I am glad I went through it! I tried again this year, got the GRE done and am now in a few pre-reqs for U of A and UBC. I applied to Dal, U of A, UBC, and Western this time around. I just received my 'informal' acceptance letter from Dal this morning! So relieved! Still waiting to hear back from the rest. My U o A application still says pending!
    Congrats to everyone who received acceptance letters! And good luck to everyone else waiting to hear back!
