I am still waiting out on my ECE Ph.D. application for Fall 2018, although I contacted the ECE department and they told me there is a grim chance to be offered an admittance at this point, but they are not going to reject us until mid Jun, in case someone declines their offer. So, I am considering 2 scenarios the first is that I will be rejected hard, because no one is likely to decline an offer from a school as prestigious as UoT. The other one is that someone should got in to better schools and will deny eventually. However, I don't know why, but the first one seems more likely and realistic.
