SmallBean Posted March 10, 2020 Author Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) @TenH I applied to the one year stream... in retrospect I think I was a little over-confident in doing that but here's hoping! Also, I received my official acceptance to Queen's University this morning ? I wasn't able to find the deadline in the email or decision letter though - how did you find out we have until July to accept/decline? Edited March 10, 2020 by SmallBean
TenH Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 @smallbean I had some discussions with the department where it came up! But I would ask to be sure

allyvs132 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Congrats to you both!! Hoping we all hear from UofT soon so we can start making some decisions (I'm trying to determine whether I should register for summer courses for a post-degree diploma program I got into). Have either of you heard of anyone else getting into the MIRHR program yet? I'm so curious as to how many offers have gone out already - I wonder if they've just sent out a few here and there or if they've actually sent out quite a few by this point ?
SmallBean Posted March 10, 2020 Author Posted March 10, 2020 Thank you @allyvs132 !! I'm really curious about UofT as well, I wish more applicants were active on this thread so we can gain some insight. My app is still under review - no change yet. Congratulations on getting into the post-degree diploma .
allyvs132 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) My application is also still under review @SmallBean - it's funny because even though I know we would hear back via email I always check the admissions page ... because that's where I expect I would hear a no! Regardless, I think it's a good sign that we haven't heard back yet. I think the admissions process runs in stages, and they're probably still in the early stages. Edited March 11, 2020 by allyvs132
SmallBean Posted March 11, 2020 Author Posted March 11, 2020 @allyvs132 I check the admissions page frequently as well! I actually applied to a different (pretty unrelated) graduate program at UofT for fall 2020 entry as well. I was rejected on Monday (expected it), they send an email that says "a decision has been made regarding your application" and when you log into SGS application page they attach the rejection letter there. @TenH I contacted the MIR program office, they said we have a safety net of about 4 weeks to accept or decline our offer of admission.
TenH Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) @SmallBean thats so weird! I was told July. I haven’t gotten any word yet either way from UofT but will maybe reach out soon given that now it seems I need to reply more quickly to Queen’s. Edited March 11, 2020 by TenH

And when I email the uoft program they aren’t very forthcoming with info
TenH Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 Thinking of emailing them next week but maybe thats too soon?
SmallBean Posted March 14, 2020 Author Posted March 14, 2020 I'm gunna search old threads for UofT MIRHR to see around when they were accepted... maybe it'll give us some idea. I'm getting increasingly concerned about how the university closures and covid-19 might factor into a delay of admission decisions. I don't want to wait too long and lose my opportunity for Queen's.

Yeah I was thinking of you both on this as I'm sure administration units within universities are working remote/closing which may delay any response. I hope that Queens understands that there are delays happening everywhere and provides an extension for your 4 week deadline.
TenH Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 @SmallBean @allyvs132 Im going to toss Carol at uoft a quick email tomorrow just asking how this may impact admissions! I can report back here if that would he helpful

allyvs132 Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 Hey @TenH - have you heard anything back yet? I'm wondering if I should send them an email to see if we should expect any delays. Cheers!
TenH Posted March 18, 2020 Posted March 18, 2020 @allyvs132 We should hear by May 1 either way and thats still the case thankfully SmallBean 1
