@everygirl at the bottom of the page... Key: A: American; U: International, with US degree; I: International, without US degree; O: Other; ?: Unknown. This person had an 'A' there. but who knows if it's true. :S When I got my first rejection I was pretty down for a few days. I think it's normal that it stings a bit... I hope everyone gets some (positive) news very soon! -
but thanks for the words of encouragement. it's funny, I saw you applied to Ryerson-I almost applied there too but chickened out at the last minute! It's such a good comm school. And yes, I am the poster from March 17th. I got an email, still haven't gotten a formal letter.. and I'm in Ottawa. The email didn't mention if they were sending one.
I'll let you know...

Ughhhh I can't believe they lost your transcript! It doesn't surprise me. It's a good school but when I was doing my undergrad I heard about the admin doing that crap all the time. A friend of mine was told by an academic advisor once she has all the credits she needed to graduate only to be told 2 weeks before the end of her last semester that she was missing a course. :/

Glad to hear I am not the only one who hasn't heard back! Only because it reassures me, not because you are all being tortured as I am It could be because they are updating? Mine still says "We will review your application over the next few weeks" blah blah. Having dealt with Infoweb throughout undergrad I found it's not the most reliable site-it goes down for maintenance at least once a month. In a past experience where I had applied for a second undergrad (which I didn't end up doing), Infoweb updated with the acceptance DAYS before I got an email. Which is why I've been checking mine compulsively as of late! I wonder if everyone will find out in April? I have a few friends who are currently in the program so I will ask them how long until they waited. A friend of mine got a rejection letter from another school in AUGUST last year. I would die! No news is better than bad news, I guess. Like you said, maybe that one mystery accept was simply a stellar individual with perfect grades and lots of experience! I am so glad I found this forum. I think my boyfriend would've killed me if he had to hear me complain about this process one more time. Good luck to everyone! Please keep me posted and I will do the same! -
I got my rejection from Carleton on March 17th (St Patty's day; what a nice excuse to drink LOL) so I think that's good news for you
I'll let you know if I hear anything from OttawaU. Good luck! -

Soooo..... it's April 5th and I've heard from one of two schools I've applied to for an MA in Communication. Carleton rejected me. Heard nothing from Ottawa U but I saw someone posted on the results board they received acceptance last week. The individual indicated they were an American student (I'm Canadian)... Any thoughts on whether an international student would hear back earlier (due to funding possibly)? I called a few weeks ago and was told they will be sending out emails at the end of April. But since the aforementioned individual heard back already I have a feeling the first round of acceptances went out. Possibly rejected or waitlisted I thought I had a slightly better chance at Ottawa U since I did my undergrad there and my recommendations are both from professors who currently teach at the graduate-level there. Oh well. Just venting. I can't stand waiting. I wish they would just let me know already! I gotta get moving on my Plan B but don't want to waste money applying to a college program in case I get into grad school. This process is soo much more stressful than I had anticipated. At least I will be better prepared for the emotional rollercoaster should I choose to go through this process next year!
