Has anyone accepted UBC's offer? Is there a Facebook group? I'd like to get to know my cohort.

I'm wondering how everyone decided which program to attend. It's almost April 15, I am still over the fence. I ended up attending SU open house and having a private tour of UB. Both have pros and cons. I was very impressed with SU's clinic and UB's research labs (and the very friendly personable profs at UB). How do you make a decision that will dictate the course of your career?

I've been waitlisted at UWO. I'll probably tell them to take me off the wait list since I have been accepted to other programs. So if you're put on waitlist at UWO, you might get a lucky phone call after April 15 since there is one fewer person to compete in the candidate pool. I'm still deciding between UBC and a couple other US programs. I toured both programs in the States last week and I have to admit that it made the decision making process more difficult. More didactic courses and clinical experience are very tempting, as well as all the opportunities as a student and clinician. But I am worried about student loan I'll graduate with as I am not 24 year old and it will be easier for my husband to move with me. So, I am very likely to accept UBC's offer in the end. If you're planning to attend UBC, holla at me. ?

I have been accepted to UOP after an interview. But I'm probably not going... Too expensive for me without any funding. ?

Congrats! I'm still pretty torn between UBC and another US program, which offers me a grant to cover 2 years of tuition. I'll be pulling my hair until April 15 for sure. Who knows, maybe we will be classmates!

So... UBC has released their decisions. Good luck everyone! I'm admitted to UBC and still waiting for UWO. I have also been accepted to three US programs so I have a lot of thinking to do!

I did. It was the same prof who interviewed me. I'm speaking with her next week.

I made a last minute decision to attend the Open House at Syracuse University next weekend. Since I live in western Canada, it's a big trip. But I wanted to meet my potential faculty and cohort before I make a commitment. If you are also going, give me a shout out! I'd like to connect! P.S - Has anyone heard from Louisiana State?

@libAuD I got the same email today. I was expecting it but I am still disappointed. I am contemplating to contact Dr. Lee to ask where I am on the waitlist. If there is little hope, I'm going to have to take an offer from another program. Good luck with the waiting game. I'll keep you posted. Hang in there!

@Meghan Pilkington Hi! I'd really love to go to the open house and meet the faculty and look around the facilities! But I can't fly down there because I have a full time job. Would you mind sharing your experience when you attend the open house? I wouldn't mind snow since I live in Canada.

I hope we still have a chance!! I'll keep you updated when I hear from them. Good luck!

I did pay through the university website and I even got a receipt. I emailed the Admissions Office with no luck so I contacted the department a few days ago. Last Friday, Dr. Lee, the program coordinator responded that the committee was reviewing all the applications submitted to CSDCAS (later I found out that they had actually sent out admission letters at this point). Dr. Lee also CC'd the person who can shed light into the matter. I'll have to contact her again since I haven't heard anything from her. Luckily, I have been admitted to three other schools but I was really hoping to get into USF.... I feel disappointed and frustrated for sure that I might not have had a chance for a review.

Thanks for responding!I had a feeling that they would release decisions on Friday. I haven't heard from them so I think I am either waitlisted or rejected... Or they didn't even review my application since their website says I didn't pay for the application fee so they can't process it. Well, I'm not sure if I should email them or just wait for my rejection letter. Feeling quite confused!

Congratulations! May I ask how you found out? Did you get an email or did you check your status on their website? Many thanks in advance!
