Hi, if someone is currently in the UofA program, can you please PM me? Thank you!!

15th April

I can't find it

Mine says before 10th of May! And I have ongoing courses maybe that's why. They'll need to confirm the number of people accepting their offer and send it to the faculty of graduate studies! The faculty of graduate studies will be the ones who update the portal and make changes to the system so that we can pay the deposit.

is there a group for ubc that I can join? Also anyone got accepted to the Victoria cohort? I wonder if it's been approved or not

I am likely declining UofA's offer and accpeting UBC's!

SHE LIED TO ME ABOUT MONDAY I got into UBC too!!!!!!!!!!!

I talked to the UBC advisor and they’ll start releasing SLP results on Monday! I hope that’s a relief for those anxiously waiting

I just got back from Western too, they told me which quadrant I'm in. I am in the 1st quadrant, which is likely to get accepted eventually based on what people said in the previous years. But I am pretty sure I'll only go for either UofA or UBC! So good luck to everyone who's waiting for acceptance from Western :)))

Anyone who applied to UBC Aud heard anything??

It can be due to a lot of reasons. One of my friends believes that he got rejected for a master's program (not SLP) because of the reference letters. He kept a copy of them because he ended up not applying to one of the schools. Sadly one of the referees whom he took a class from and got an A+ literally expressed her confusion as to why my friend would look for a reference letter from her. She didn't say any good stuff about my friend. This can be part of the reason. It can also be about what every school values the most. For example, UofT and UBC value research experiences more, UofA values EDI experiences and overall profile more, etc. From what you said, I think your profile is pretty competitive, so I have no idea what has gone wrong. BUT, from someone in another thread, being rejected doesn't mean you're not good enough or SLP isn't for you. Sometimes you're just unlucky, with a lot of highly competitive applicants applying in the same cycle.

I think you can email the graduate program advisor @earmouth@uwo.ca

Of course!! According to ORPAS my GPA is 3.68, which is ok but definitely not competitive. I worked as a BI for 2 years, volunteered in a pediatric clinic for 2 years, volunteered at a senior residence for few months, worked as an RA under a language acquisition lab for 1.5 years, and worked as a private tutor for 4 years!

Got waitlisted for Western! I was expecting a rejection because my GPA wasn't good at all and I wrote my personal statement literally one day before LOL. Congrats to everyone who got accepted!

ORPAS said April 3rd, it's probably a more general release date for applicants who applied through ORPAS. Western will probably send out emails and update their portal on April 1st.
