nocoffeeforme Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I just had my interview with a theory prof. He told me that starting from this year U of T's MSc program no longer accepts international students, so they will consider me for PhD direct entry instead. merlinyx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GokuUI Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 From the looks of the front page of the search, it seems like if the option unlocked means you didn't get through. It's one guy so I'd take it with a grain of salt, but this doesn't look good ?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaoJu Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Well I applied to MSc in Human Computer Interaction... I contacted my POIs but neither 2 (Grossman, and Munteanu) replied... I don't think I really have a chance, though. Don't think my profile competitive. GPA 3.86/4(3.91/4 in final year) from an ordinary Univ in China, GRE 161/165/3, Merely a DIS (2nd author), and all 3 LORs came from mainland China/HK. I was a summer intern at McGill in 2017, but Jeremy isn't writing a LOR (He's on sabbatical...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weldon_m Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I think the changes in the Research Area and PoI shouldn't be a big problem. Fact is that my Research Area is always changeable ever since I submitted my MSc application form. And I got an interview yesterday. So be relaxed.

Also can you please let us know your research area? It would be helpful to identify the departments that are issuing the interview requests. Thanks in advance.

timkartar Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Hey Goku, I see u have applied to waterloo too. Any news from them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsmythe Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 For those interested: I have been told that last year there were about 220 domestic applicants for the MSc program, of which about 70 received offers. There were slightly less than 900 international applicants for the MSc, receiving about 40 offers. Of course, if international applicants aren't being considered for the MSc this year - and given that we received an email stating that there are an unprecedented number of applicants this year, I'm not sure how helpful this is. merlinyx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
