  1. Also, current UBC student here, open to questions if anyone has any - please feel free to DM
  2. Hello! I'm just wrapping up year 1 of my master's BC, Canada. I'm really interested in Vocology, especially working with singers (rehab or optimization). I know some schools in the States offer specialty tracks but unfortunately I don't think any schools in Canada offer anything like that. Would love if anyone who's done a post-grad certificate in this area (or something similar) could share where/when/how you liked it. Particularly interested in programs that don't send me south of the border, including online, but open to anything!!
  3. I think I've seen this shared elsewhere in this thread, but FYI for anyone wondering: -Last year UA sent out acceptances March 26 and 27 -UBC sent acceptances on April 7 -I got my rejection letter from Dalhousie on April 7 too (but they were pretty all over the map with when they sent both acceptances and rejections out) Not sure when they'll be sent out this year of course but I hope that helps anyone wondering!
  4. Can you give more context? The only time I recall hitting a submit button last year was when I submitted the application itself but not sure if they've changed anything
  5. If I recall correctly the status on the portal either wasn't updated at all or wasn't updated till quite late in the review process last year. Things can change year to year but I wouldn't spend too much time checking it haha
  6. Hey - yes, I did (but also got a couple rejections) Feel free to shoot me a message if you want any more information
  7. For UBC, ORPAS, Dal, I don't think any of my references made any reference to the particular programs in their letters (I didn't get into Western or Dal but I did get an offer from UBC). One of my references did say that she altered her letter slightly for UA as I mentioned their EDI initiative to her. In general, I think the admissions officers know that the reference's job is to write a letter about you and your job is to know about the programs. I hope that helps!
  8. Also, hello everyone! I'm a first year student at UBC. Happy to answer questions about my experience with applications and talk about the UBC program so far, feel free to shoot me a DM
  9. I discussed this briefly in my LOI! I can't imagine it would ever hurt to spend some time explicitly explaining why the strengths/attributes you've described in your letter make you an especially good candidate for their school
  10. I can confirm this! Those classes count towards your credits for admission GPA calculation for UA and I think Dalhousie too. So I took P/Fs on a couple classes and of my 61 credits (just the way the terms worked out) only 55 of them were actually used to calculate my admission GPA
  11. Yeah It really didn't work in my favour either, it sucks!!! Yes exactly - So it would be like you got a B in 3 unspecified courses
  12. Unfortunately they don't exist for the purposes of GPA calculation, so they'll go further back Also note that if they reach a 'school year' boundary (Usually April, if your school offers summer term it's considered its own thing) and need fewer courses than are contained in that year they'll average the entire year (usually sept-april) and weigh it down to match the number of remaining courses. Let me know if that makes sense
