Has anyone heard from York yet?

Nothing yet! But Friday last week I got an email from the grad program secretary asking about some parts of my application for clarification, so I would assume the admissions committee are just getting to looking at them now. But not positive!

I interviewed there previously and know people in the program, so I wanted to mention that not all faculty are doing interviews on that day. It’s just the ones belonging to the clinical health research centre. If you want to know which POIs are interviewing on those days, I can ask my friends. The majority of the faculty conduct their interviews individually throughout January and February.

okay thank-you! can you please let me know which faculty are doing interviews that day!

Western's in-person interviews will be on Feb 8th! The faculty will be meeting next Tuesday to discuss in-person invites.

I think they are just starting their preliminary interviews. I had a phone interview with my POI earlier this morning. She indicated that they have been given a bit of a short window to contact applicants

Can someone explains Mac's program? Their site is vague.  I didn't know they had some off-label, unaccredited clinical program until recently--why would anyone apply there (not being shady, actually curious)

Is Mac short for McMaster?

Any news from McMaster or OISE?

I haven't heard anything from OISE yet... but based on previous years, they seem to contact applicants in the last week of January

It's brand new and definitely needs some improvement, but it is VERY research intensive (way less course work than other schools). It also does not require the GRE, so some people apply if they have good grades but a less than stellar GRE score (like me). McMaster is Canada's #1 research university so the odds of it becoming accredited is very likely, but again it is a gamble.

Hmm less coursework...are they trying to get accredited by PCSAS?

Congrats to the person who was accepted to UofT! Would you be  willing to share your POI details? Also was this for OISE or UTSC? :)

I am wondering the same!

Also... weird "smell man" post lol. I'm a little confused!

Western PIs are already reaching out? I thought their website said that they wouldn’t reach out until Jan 25... Did your PI say if all faculty was doing so? Btw congrats on the interview!!

Thanks! I don't think all PI's are reaching out. My POI indicated that they have a faculty meeting next Tuesday to discuss as a group about applicants before sending out in-person invites
