Did you email them and ask them what to improve on? Considering if I should do this as well haha

Hey I reached out and was told by the advisor that they sent out most waitlist offers last week and that if we don't hear back by the end of April, it is likely all the spots for the cohort are filled

Has anyone been accepted off UofA's waitlist recently?

Hey, I PMed you!

Is anyone thinking of declining their UofA offer? Trying to gage how much their waitlist will move

When you say you got in "earlier", do you mean today or the 28th?

I got waitlisted with a 4th quartile casper score and I know someone who got an offer with a 2nd quartile score last year, so I don't think there's that much of an emphasis on it, but that's just my opinion!

I know that a few people got rejection emails yesterday, so I would definitely reach out to them!

Yup

I also believe it has to do with the fact that the deadline was Feb 1 this year, whereas historically it's been Jan 15

You can email mscslp@ualberta.ca

Around the last week of March, I believe

We can add/remove documents up until the deadline, I believe! Not sure if we'd be able to after Feb 1.

I believe they just want you to name the document a "Resume" but a CV should work. I've heard from some people that it should be 2-3 pages, but I also know people who've been accepted that had longer ones, so not too sure if there's a strict rule on it.

Are you accessing your transcript through MyCreds? If so, what I did was share the transcript to my personal email and from there I was able to download it and save as a pdf, which I submitted for the application.

For the UofA Statement of Intent, what font size are we supposed to write it in? Or does it even matter as long as it's under 2 pages?

@SquidSLP It wasn't too bad! Doing the practice exams was the best preparation for me and helped me prep for what kind of questions I might get. Good luck on yours!

Hi all! This will be my first time applying to the SLP program this year! Excited and nervous 😅 When is everyone planning on writing the CASPer? And for those who have already taken it, how did you find it? I'm going to be writing on September 14th!
