Sitting on the waitlist for Dal!
Any current students or folks with more insight know the size of the average Dal SLP cohort, and how many people they might put on a waitlist?
Hi! No idea about how many go onto the waitlist, but I know there are between 25 and 30 in the class!

Is there anyone who has already graduated and finished all the prereqs for UofT that got an acceptance from UofT? If so, can you please message me. I've actually already graduated and finished all the prereqs, but in my letter of admission it said that having my degree conferred with a minimum of a B is outstanding (both of which things I have already achieved). So, I was wondering if people similar to me also have this problem?
It's possible they just have a standard letter of admission and that's why that condition is being stated even though you've already achieved that?

I just accepted an unconditional offer at UofA this afternoon 3pm Alberta time! I will be declining at McGill after work today.

To all the Dal acceptees, does anyone know if you can bypass the foundation courses if you already have taken the equivalent (as a prerequisite for another school)?
I shadowed an S-LP who graduated from DAL about 6 years ago, and she said that she was exempt from Phonetics for having taken the course during undergrad. That was a while ago obviously, so I don't know if that's still the case, but there's definitely a history of it!

Thanks for sharing! I emailed the grad admin when I got my letter asking about funding opportunities so I’ll let you know if she says anything you haven’t already mentioned.
I think my first semester I’m just going to try and survive, forget “top 5” ._. I wonder how many cohorts there are in the program though? Seems like there’s quite a few on gradcafe so Dal’s SLP program may be bigger than most grad programs (pure speculation).
Yeah let me know! And actually, Dal is one of the smallest programs, with about 30 students! I guess just a weird proportion of us have found this site!

Got my acceptance this afternoon as well for Dal! Congrats!! Do you know anything about potential funding? I didn’t apply for the thesis option so I don’t know if there’s any funding allocated for non-thesis students.
To those of you waiting, I hope you all hear back soon. I’m sending good vibes your way ❤️
I tried to look into funding options a few days ago, and it seems like they're pretty limited for non-thesis students (I'm in the same situation as you). Apparently there are also merit-based scholarships awarded after the first year of the program, but I am not sure how much those are for (not to mention that banking on having one of the top five GPAs in the program sounds stressful as heck)

Hi everyone! Just discovered this page last week and i'm not sure if it's been helpful or made me crazier. Anyway, I applied only to Dal, because I only switched into Linguistics in third year and did not have time to take the necessary prereqs for other Cdn schools. Yesterday I emailed to ask when we would hear back, as I have a job offer for the fall that I wasn't sure what to do about. Marion got back to me and said they had JUST submitted their decisions to her, and let me know that I'm in! Yay! So I imagine they will be contacting people tomorrow or Friday with their unofficial offers! Good luck to all ?
