WTH, I can't log in the web browser won't open This happened last year as well, ugh. I agree with Chantalilly, this might save me from refreshing the page all day but it certainly won't decrease my stress levels Chantalilly 1

2019MSWToronto Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Hi Everyone, I've been a long lurker of this forum, and decided today to join in! I am so excited to hear of everyone's acceptances! I have applied to the 2-year stream at the University of Toronto. I wasn't too certain of all the programs I wanted to apply to, but I knew U of T was one of them so I put all of my eggs in one basket and am hoping for good news! ? Congrats to all who have heard back, and everyone who has applied. It's such a long and grueling process, so I applaud those who have completed multiple applications to different schools. It is no easy task!

Anniemsw Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 My acorn says: Course data unavailable. That wasn't there before. I'm going to take that as a rejection. My SGS server is not letting me login.
