Hey!
I want to say congratulations to all those who have received acceptances, it is well deserved. For those still waiting to hear back, hang on tight we got this.
As April 1st is slowly creeping around the corner I'm both anxious and excited!! Since I live in BC I will most likely will find out my applications result at 9:00 pm PST on Wednesday, but I don't know if I'm the only one that's gonna do this, but I don't think I will check until Thursday morning. Mainly because no matter what the verdict is I will not sleep the night I check. Hopefully my curiosity doesn't get the better of me and I can hold off until the morning but I don't know at this point!
Good luck to everywhere still waiting to hear back!!
Pav!
Oh god, it’s the opposite for me! I will have to wait even more as I’m in India right now. For me midnight would be 9.30 AM on Thursday.

Thank you for that. Was your WES evaluation for a credential, i.e. a degree or was it just for some courses taken over the course of one year, for example?
It was a course by course evaluation for my Undergraduate program. Although the result of last two semesters was pending then so they could only evaluate the first three years of my degree. If or when I get admitted for my postgrad, I will have to get the rest of the courses evaluated, as well! But that would just be an add on.
The first thing they do is ask you for the credentials that you want to get evaluated, and then you got to choose a plan for the same.
You can always make an account and see if it would work for you, considering they ask for payment at the very last stage. You will get a better idea that way! Hope that helps!

Hi there, Thank you for the reply! My uni lists exchange as just a pass, but I know I need to include all transcripts, and I want to include my exchange year anyway because I did very well, and the courses taken during the exchange year were credited towards my major, and are important for my sGPA. There is pertinent information on page 6 of https://www.ouac.on.ca/guide/orpas-transcript/#assessment Here it says, "Whether you are a Canadian or non-Canadian applicant, you must have your international transcript assessed by WES if:
* you have not met the minimum course number criteria using your Canadian data
* you require inclusion of your international education data
I would be very interested in hearing from anyone who used WES for assessing some courses done on an exchange year.
Hi,
I got a WES evaluation for my international transcript. It was time consuming, however, I was satisfied with the result until I went through this forum and found that it might not be enough..

Hey guys,
First off, I want to congratulate all those who have been offered Interviews for Mac! For those who did not there is still time so do not lose hope just yet. Also, we have yet to hear from all the other schools as well. I know its easier said then done because I too am feeling the anxiety and stress of the verdicts to my application get to me. But despite what the verdict is I need everyone here to remember that this does not define who you are. I know we get caught up in finishing school in a timely fashion and all these other things, but school is just one facet of our lives. So, if you do not get in this year please do not feel upset. This gives us more time to figure ourselves out and become better for the following year, I know its hard not to feel upset and defeated but I truly believe that we all have our own paths that we need to follow to get where we need to be. I know I am rambling on, but I know for a very long time I struggled with the uncertainty of where my life was heading and that I know a lot of you must be feeling the same way and it sucks. The constant worrying and nervous breakdowns all suck but worrying only means we suffer twice. So, try and relax and don’t forget to destress every now and then! I believe in us and we have got this!
I love how kind and supportive everyone here is! You’re right. Need to find some way to detoxify and just chill..

Also, for those of you who didn't receive an email from McMaster yet (or who might not receive one at all), I just want to say please don't let this discourage you from your chances with your other applications!
I think it's really important to keep in mind that McMaster is the school that values grades more than anything else, seeing as they don't require the GRE, CASPer, letters of intent, references, clinical experience, or any way to demonstrate skills outside of academia. So with that being said, if you're someone who might not have the highest GPA but do have good supplemental experience, letters, referees, etc. then you definitely still have a strong chance at some of the other schools who value those aspects!
Basically, don't let McMaster using one number (GPA) for this part of their selection lessen your confidence in your applications for other schools. We all have different skills sets, and I wish you the best of luck with any of the schools you may have applied to!
Oh god! Really needed to hear this. I didn’t receive an email either.
Congratulations to everyone who received their invitations!

As a sidenote - You should be able to find your subGPA on ORPAS (https://www.ouac.on.ca/apply/orpas/en_CA/user/login) under 'document tracking'. Good luck!
Since I have an international Transcript, it doesn’t show ?

Hey guys!
I just wanted to introduce myself. Feeling extremely relieved to see so many of us on the same boat. My story is a little different. Being a Canadian, I had to move to India for a few years. I completed my undergrad from here, the program here is called Bachelors in Audiology and Speech Language Pathology. Im in my fourth year as of now.
I have applied to Western, UofT and McMaster for Postgrad in SLP.
Even for my prerequisites and Transcripts, I had to get everything converted via WES. My cgpa came to be 3.53, however, I’m not sure of my Subgpa or how that will be calculated. Super stressed about that!
Also, I have only recieved an email from Western regarding my application. Nothing from UofT or McMaster. Any thoughts why?
TIA

Feeling so disheartened after my rejection from Western. Not sure about U of T either..
