  1. Would it be easier if we made Facebook groups for the different schools? That way we have a way to post on the group and chat as well? Not sure if it's a good idea, but I saw the thread last year did that?
  2. I got accepted into UofT and McMaster - both showed up on my portal as "Offer"!! Yay
  3. In regards to the Mac MMI interview, do we need our cameras on during the writing component? Seeing as there is a slight dress code, I don't want to show up in pjs at 8am hahah
  4. How was your interview? Mine's tomorrow so I'm super nervous about it, but any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated!
  5. Hi everyone!! I just got an interview for Mac so they should be sending it out today/soon
  6. Did UofT add the interview component just this year? I could have sworn that it wasn't required in the previous years...
  7. Yes, me too! Except when you log into your ORPAS account, are you also receiving the "We are currently processing your application" message despite receiving those 2 emails?
  8. Hey everyone, we finally made it! Is anyone else getting the message "We are currently processing your application" after submitting? Is that normal, because I got an email from ORPAS stating I have successfully submitted my application along with the purchase receipt... I'm just unsure of whether there needs to be a different message.
  9. Hi everyone, Will you be writing 1 huge paragraph for the statement letter, or will you be dividing it into separate paragraphs over ORPAS? I know that spaces and breaking up paragraphs counts as a character, but I was wondering if anyone knows what is preferred by admission teams. Also - to those applying to SLP and AUD, are you writing a completely different letter or leaving it roughly the same?
  10. Hey!! Both my referees are from when I completed courses online. For my university, however, we were required to attend class over Zoom so I had the opportunity to use my webcam and voice during sessions. That way, we got to know each other just as well as we would in-class. I don't think the admission board will be too harsh over this, seeing as a pandemic is something completely out of our control... Maybe try reflecting on courses you did really well in, and if you had the opportunity to meet/get to know the professor? I personally don't think it'll matter if you choose to ask a professor pre- or -post pandemic.
  11. Does anyone know if it is alright to abbreviate Speech-Language Pathology to SLP in our statement letter? Not quite sure if that seems a bit unprofessional... It's just that it gives us much more space to write more characters?
  12. Hi everyone, I'm not sure if anyone else is having this problem when inputting their prerequisites, but even though I have finished inserting all of my required prerequisites for a given school (e.g., University of Toronto), it proceeds to give me the option to add more. Do I need to keep adding courses until this option is no longer given to me? I checked on the admission website and I have all of the required prerequisites, I just don't understand why it is asking me for more...
  13. https://www.ouac.on.ca/guide/orpas-western/#csd-covid I think you still have the opportunity to describe any volunteer experience! When looking at Western, for instance, the website says, "clinical volunteer hours will not be required, but you will still have an opportunity to describe any other volunteerism or relevant paid work already completed." I guess they may skim over your volunteer experience, assuming you have already completed hours in the past?
