  1. Hey everyone! I'm a first year SLP student at UofA. I found this forum super useful last year, so I thought I'd try and reach out to you all this year to see if I can help. We're in the middle of midterm season rn so I am a quite busy, but please feel free to PM me if you have any questions about the school, application process for any of the schools I applied to (see below), McMaster's MMI, etc. and I'll try and answer as soon as I can
  2. I'd like to add on that I know some people in the group were still debating between schools when they joined a few weeks ago, and so some of them may have ended up declining UofA but not left the group yet (I know of at least one like this, so there could be more). So, there definitely still might be more spots opening up. Past forums show several people usually getting accepted places in May, and some even all the way until August (although that's much more unlikely) but there's definitely still several weeks left where it's likely more offers will be sent out.
  3. Not me (as I had already been accepted) but there's been a couple people join the Facebook page we have over the last week who say they got accepted off the waitlist, so there has been some movement! I also know for UofA there's no deposit, so some people might be holding onto an acceptance there and then might end up declining if they choose to go elsewhere. I hope you hear back soon and get in!
  4. Congrats to both of you! I'm excited to meet you both If you haven't already, please feel free to join our Facebook page here --> https://www.facebook.com/groups/4145976932101730
  5. Hi everyone! There should be some movement for Western, McMaster, and McGill as I've declined those offers, as well as I've asked to have myself removed from Dalhousie's waitlist. I'll be attending UAlberta in the fall. Congrats to those accepted, and best of luck to those of you waiting to hear back!
  6. Hi everyone! I've declined my offers at Western, McMaster, and McGill, as well as I have emailed Dal to please remove me from the waitlist as I have accepted my offer from Alberta. Congrats to those of you accepted, and best of luck to those of you still waiting to hear back!
  7. Just went back through some emails/portals/letters to try and organize all of the dates/times/deadlines...lol. Here's what I've got: McMaster -offer expires 11:59pm EST on April 15th plus $500 deposit by July 15th (as seen in email containing offer of admission letter) Western - offer expires 11:59pm EST on April 16th plus $500 deposit due by June 1st (as seen in offer of admission letter) McGill -accept by April 15th with $500 deposit due by April 15 as well (as seen in offer of acceptance) Alberta - offer expires April 15th, but I can't find a time or deposit info (as seen on GSMS portal) Unfortunately I can't speak to UBC, Toronto, Dal, or the French schools, but if anyone else knows and wants to jump in here it might be useful! I'm also not 100% sure what they mean by "due by.." like McGill says, either, whether it means before tomorrow or sometime during tomorrow. I'm planning on accepting my offer sometime today, just to be safe. Also is anyone able to confirm that there's no deposit for UAlberta? I'm worried I'm missing something.
  8. Hey! In the email they sent me with the PDF of the letter attached, it says "Your deadline to respond is Thursday, April 15, 2021 at 11:59 pm EST". It doesn't say this time in the letter itself, but it's in the message part of the email they sent with it. I hope this helps! Also congrats on receiving multiple offers which schools are you debating between? Edit: Just adding that the above info is in relation to McMaster, I'd have to look into the other schools to be sure about them.
  9. So I noticed on the ORPAS website, on one page it says provisional acceptances for SLP/AUD become firm on April 30th (https://www.ouac.on.ca/guide/orpas-dates/) but on a different page for FAQ it says they become firm on April 20th (https://www.ouac.on.ca/faq/when-do-provisionals-become-firm/) I'm pretty certain it should be the 30th (it makes the most sense and this is in line with what they've done in the past) but I just wanted to point it out in case anyone is confused or is in that situation and might want to just triple check with ORPAS!
  10. Hi! The FAQ near the bottom of this page might help you. https://www.ouac.on.ca/faq-application/orpas/page/3/#:~:text=A provisional acceptance means that,to choose between the 2. Basically, it's sort of like you get an extended time to make a decision as you'll be able to stay on waitlists for other schools until you hear back, at which point you'll have to make an official decision. It says you can't hold two acceptances (provisional or firm) at the same time, so I'd assume this would really only work if you've been accepted to one and are on the waitlist for another (or more). If you've been accepted to two schools right now, you can't provisionally accept both of them now, you'll have to choose one.
  11. Not sure! But their email says they won't answer any emails about waitlist position/probability inquiries, and also that there is no particular order for their waitlist, which is interesting.
  12. Me too, I still haven't heard anything. But since they contacted more people today, I'd imagine we should definitely be hearing soon, especially with the acceptance deadline next week for the other schools.
