overcaffeinatedslp Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Sitting on the waitlist for Dal! Any current students or folks with more insight know the size of the average Dal SLP cohort, and how many people they might put on a waitlist?
SLP2019please Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 I am on the waitlist for McGill and I emailed this morning and apparently there are no spots open? I don't know what that means for the people on the waitlist, but we are not ranked because of this! I also don't understand how there are no spots when people posted about declining offers

Does this mean there's no longer a waitlist?
BobthebuildersWife Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 I don't think what SLP2019please says makes sense. Mcgill says they wont tell you where you are on the Waitlist. And they also say they wont give you any information if you email them. Sounds like you need to relax and follow instructions. Maybe post the reply you got and we can help you understand what they said. slp.dreamer 1

Hello, I emailed because this is a torturous wait, I didn't break any rules and they didn't have to answer me, but they did. They said, and I quote "at this time there are no spots available, therefore, applicants on the waitlist have not been ranked". To which I asked since there are no spots available will the waitlisted students be sent a rejection letter or will we remain on the waitlist just in case until June. To which they responded and again I quote "your name will remain on the waitlist in the event of persons withdraw from the program". I don't know why you are being so rude, we are all anxiously awaiting.
BobthebuildersWife Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Sorry I didn't mean to come across as rude. I believe tomorrow is the date to have your decision In regarding acceptances. If you look at the 2018 SLP tread you'll see that on the 18th is when all the phone calls went out for the first round of the waitlist. I think they don't know until tomorrow how many people have declined. Anyways all the best I hope it works out for you. Thank you for the info

slpbc Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Accepted off the waitlist from U of T this morning, but I will be declining their offer to attend U of A. Hopefully that opens up a spot for a U of T hopeful on this forum!
