  1. Congrats everyone who got accpetances!! Sorry for the lazy post
  2. Hi, I think a masters degree is a big commitment so if possible, you should check the profile of current phd candidate in your top choice school or better yet reach out to them for information before commit to that. I do agree with @instajar that research fit is the most important and if you can get a research project going you can reach out to the professors of that uni from platforms like research gate. You can also check for conferences where you have the chance to network with the faculty of that uni Im sorry you got rejected but the admission process is quite biased and complicated so don't feel too down.
  3. Anyone heard from UBC PhD per OB adcom? I saw a result post saying they sent interview email last ween
  4. that' natural, but let's cross that bridge when we get there, no point worry about it just yet
  5. I think on their website they said you are encouraged to let the adcom knows if you need an earlier notice, maybe try writing them?
  6. take this with a grain of salt but Im pretty sure PhD and masters normally dont have the same deadline, also Laurier adcoms work on rolling basis so if she applied earlier it is natural that she gets a callback before you .
  7. I saw someone got an interview invite from UBC. the nerves are kicking in
  8. Oh yeah I feel you Im refreshing my emails 10 times a day and stalking the result page obsessively
  9. Applied to Toronto, UBC, Mcgill for OB - I also tried to contact POI but no respond. Finger crossed and good luck to everyone!
  10. Thank you for the positive note. How were your interviews? All good I hope. Well its frustrating to wait like this but lets hope no news is good news
  11. You never know. Don't feel down just yet.
  12. wow, 13, that must have been a lot of work, yeah I also think I should have applied to 3 of the less known uni just to be sure. well no point crying over spilt milk. But good luck on your applications, hope you get callback for your first-choice program
  13. @maverick__ yes good luck to you too, it's so frustrating not knowing any deadline of the reviewing process but as you said, at least we have fellow applicants to encourage each other
  14. out of curiosity, how many applications do you guys think one should make? I only made 3 and I'm feeling like I should have applied to more programs to have a plan B
  15. I haven't heard back from Rotman, I applied for OB but the survey on gradcafe made me thinks they would send out invites by mid Jan or end of Jan.
  16. @grace1234 thank you, wish you best of luck and admission to your 1st choice school
  17. Thank you for the post, my first journal article won't be published before April and it's not aligned with the research interest of the programs I'm applying (as I'm just assisting my supervisor with his research) so I was a bit concerned.
  18. IMO, if you already stated your research interests in you SOP, they just cut you off cause they already read about it (and liked it) and prefer to ask other information. My supervisor does this all the time. No need to concern there. Also, I doubt they would interview you if your research interest doesn't align with that of the POI or the department.
