  1. Hi folks! For people wondering when Dal would start sending out applications again: Just wanted to give a heads up that I was accepted to the Dalhousie University SLP program on Tuesday this week! Good luck to everyone ❤️
  2. For sure! I’m very confident in my ability to be an excellent SLP but I honestly would have never imagined that I would get in! I struggled a lot in my second year (I had a fall term GPA of 2.6) and for a long time I wondered if I would even make it through my undergrad. But it goes to show that it’s never too late and to never give up on your dreams! ❤️ My stats are: First time applying CUM GPA: 3.8/4.3 or 3.6/4.0 (according to ORPAS) SUBGPA: 3.89/4.0 (according to ORPAS) B.A. First Class Honours in Psychology and minor in Drama with distinction I graduated in 2021 (I took a gap year this year to work on a project related to my undergrad thesis.) Research experience: Honours thesis, ISRG, independent study, and research assistant for three projects. I TA’d for three classes I was a tutor for an early language intervention program. I help lead conversation circles for people learning English in my community. I worked as a Behaviour Interventionist for an Autism centre. I only had a bit of shadowing experience (31 hours) I also have some diverse experiences not really related to SLP that I think may have helped: touring actor and director for a bilingual theatre company, Psych society prez, Rotaract prez, Student senator, swim instructor/coach ect…) I really don't think that their is a blueprint for a perfect SLP applicant. I feel like they are looking for diverse experiences in their students. But I hope this helps
  3. Thank you! And it's no problem at all! It's in the late half of the alphabet. Good luck ❤️
  4. Totally understand I received a call first and have yet to receive an email. But they informed me that they would send a follow up email (I no longer remember if they mentioned when the emails would be sent, sorry I was so excited!)
  5. Thank you so much My application portal did not change! They mentioned that it wouldn't change yet(I think she said at least for a couple of days)
  6. Hi Folks! Just got a call from McGill to say that I've been accepted! Good luck to everyone ❤️
  7. I'm sorry to hear that! I hope you we're able to figure something out! Thank you for letting us know decisions will only be made next week! Now I can stop constantly checking my email and obsessing over this forum...at least for a couple of days haha?
  8. Okay great! Thank you Just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something haha! I've been doing the same strategy. And I've been reading up on issues in health/SLP. But it really feels like it's one that's hard to prepare for! Let me know if you'd like to do a call and practice some questions together!
  9. Hi! I was just wondering what sample questions you were referring to? Does McMaster supply any sample questions for MMI prep?
