  1. The email with the JOINid was only sent to students who were interested in housing at U of T, don't worry!
  2. I do not have my hopes very high for McGill, but MAN am I ever anxious for this next week to be over! I'm checking all the time!
  3. I can't imagine someone writing that without being sure you're getting in. Congrats
  4. Yeah, I think it's around March 15 or just after, whether or not you get accepted.
  5. OTs have a very similar outlook and pay to SLP. It is also really competitive, but I would say a bit less so than SLP, in some ways. I applied to 3 schools for SLP and 3 for OT. For those schools OT acceptance rates are like 6%-11% and SLP are 9%-13%. Despite that, it seems like lower GPAs are accepted for OT. McMaster did interviews last year for people over 3.5 GPA, I think. CDA is different. The job outlook is pretty good, but it isn't a nation-wide career yet. I don't think it's very common to see CDAs outside of Ontario and Alberta. They make around $20/hour. OT applications were due in January. I think some CDA programs are still open, but they've started acceptances already. And backups are great, but it's worth working on getting into SLP for a few years, if it's what you really want.
  6. Congrats Hopefully neither of us ends up there, but it's a nice feeling to get in!
  7. I got into both of my backup college programs! CDA and Autism and Behavioural Science. It's a nice confidence boost, and hopefully will help me get through the next month and a half a little easier
  8. Does anyone know if the programs value honours degrees a lot higher than general ones? I already have a general BA, and am enrolled in a second BA, this time an honours. I won't finish it this year, but found out that I can finish a general BA this year. I'd like to do this, because I think I'm done with undergrad regardless of if I get in this year, but I don't know if it will hurt my chance of getting in. I probably will just email my top choices and ask them, but I think they'll probably give me super vague answers.
  9. Mine too I figured that they might do that, but was hoping they wouldn't. It dropped mine .03
  10. Eeeee!! My McGill application changed to 'In Review'! ANXIETY
  11. I'm not sure if I'd actually go into the other programs or not, but I have applied for backups. I applied for occupational therapy and a few college programs, a CDA one and one for autism and behavioural science.
  12. Get them re-sent! It seems like most of the Ontario schools are accepting references/transcripts until the end of the month!
  13. One of my references was sick last week and didn't write my letter until like yesterday. I only spoke to U of T about it, but they said it was ok as long as it came in by the end of the month! So don't worry about that school, at least.
