SmallBean Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 @TenH Thanks for joining the discussion and congratulations on Queen's! When did you submit your applications & receive your offer?

TenH Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 @SmallBean My application was fully submitted last Tuesday and I got my offer Thursday. I have about a 93% average my last two semesters, 86% cumulative for all 4 years. Happy to answer any questions! SmallBean 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallBean Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 @TenH thank you for sharing! I'm a bit worried about my cumulative GPA - I'm wondering, did you have any professional experience in IR/HR, and what was your undergraduate major?

TenH Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 @SmallBean Queens is very accepting of any major!! On the webcall I joined in on in the fall they had a drama undergrad who had joined the program. my degree is in Family and Community Social Services. How about you? No professional experience just some volunteer (remote though/web based) HR assistant work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallBean Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) @TenH I'm relieved to hear that! My major was in Psychology. I'm surprised at the fast turnover between your application submission date and acceptance date. I'm sure your application was very outstanding! I will be on the lookout for an e-mail hopefully soon, my application was fully submitted on Friday, fingers crossed! ?

TenH Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 @SmallBean Thank you!! Im super surprised too - confused even! Its all just a little overwhelming though, having a date to reply by for queens, yet waiting on uoft, and waiting on ogs results for both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallBean Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 @TenH I can imagine, how long did Queen's give you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenH Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 @SmallBean Until July! More worried about ogs results since thats a big factor in my choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallBean Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 @TenH did Queen's provide any funding? I'm checking my emails neurotically you guys, I might unplug for a bit and check again in 2 weeks...too much stress! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenH Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 @SmallBean just a small amount (which also makes it more confusing why I heard back quickly). I totally understand the feeling. Im refreshing over and over especially knowing offers have begun to go out for uoft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
