I read earlier in the post that it took a while before everyone heard back, but yes it is entirely possible to hear back today- hopefully. this waiting game is not fun at all. Goodluck!

2019SLPApp Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Hey guys, best of luck to everyone waiting and everyone on the waitlists.

chqq Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Hi everyone! I got accepted into Toronto, Western and McMaster. I will be accepting Toronto so I hope that opens up a spot for those on the waitlist at Western and Mac! Best of luck to everybody!!! slpleaseletmeintoslp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any way to accept the waitlist? 2) ALSO they said they would begin calling waitlist people in late April if any spaces become available. Anyone have an idea/previous experience with what exactlyy they mean by late April? Is it at all possible that they could contact us this week or next week? Hey there! I know in my western acceptance letter we have until Tuesday, April 16th to accept our offer. So hopefully you find out soon after that! They also called this morning to congratulate and asked if I was accepting (which I will be), I'm guessing they wanted numbers for those on the waitlist! Wishing you all the best xo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachyspeachie Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I just firmly accepted to Toronto. That'll open up another spot for someone waiting on Western and Mac Ps. Has anyone else firmly accepted an offer?? I got way too excited haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know at Western open house they said tuition is $5000 a semester, for a total of 6 semesters. I am not sure the cost of Toronto, but hopefully this helps a bit!

peachyspeachie Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) Hi all, I remember reading posts about many people being worried about their cGPA in the final admissions process. I must admit I was too. But I want to give hope to those who are in self doubt. I was accepted into 2/3 schools and waitlisted at the other school with a cGPA 3.00. This is obviously very low but I showed improvements in my subgpa which was a 3.76. That being said, don't give up if you dont have a high cGPA. Try to make your subgpa as high as possible to demonstrate that you are an intelligent student that can improve. Everyone has those times in undergrad which they don't do their best, and mine were because I came to a point that I didn't care and that affected my gpa greatly. To make up for this I did a 5th year, so that's always an option for people looking to improve their subgpa. Also- to those who are worried because they had to repeat a course: I took stats in second year and did terrible, and then later when i realized I wanted to pursue SLP I retook a different stats course (it was a socsci stats instead of the science stats which was much harder). I also repeated one anatomy credit because I got a B the first time (need a B+ to apply to UofT). I really just wanted to tell my story to give others hope!! This is for the people who doubt themselves because they've come across bumps along the road. Don't give up, this experience has taught me that you don't need to be a PERFECT student to gain admission. You just need to be a hard working one.
