"Thank you for your application for admission to graduate studies at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto. We regret that an offer of admission cannot be made at this time. The department received a large number of applications from well-qualified candidates, but only a limited number of spaces were available. Your name has been placed on a waitlist. We realize being on an admission waitlist often causes problems for people needing to make decisions concerning their future. While it is not possible to enter into discussion or correspondence about your position on the waitlist, we will make every effort to contact you as soon as possible should a space become available. If you have not received an offer of admission by mid-August, it would be safe to assume that all student places have been filled for the academic year and an offer of admission will not be forthcoming. Meanwhile, should you make other plans or wish to have your name removed from the waitlist, please advise the department directly as soon as possible. We appreciate your interest in graduate studies at OISE and extend our best wishes as you pursue your educational goals."
