I also applied to a few US institutions that gave me until April 15th...does anyone have any advice or experience asking for an extension for the notification date? I want to have it extended until April 15th so that I can make a decision with all of my schools and information (although McGill is definitely a top choice, I love Montreal!). Congrats!!! Which stats and experiences did you apply to McGill with if you don't mind me asking

angelazy Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 Has anyone got the final decision from McGill's GPS? My uapply is still showing in review after I get the recommendation letter on March 5th.
moonjar Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 For those who are still Under Review for UofA, does your portal show this "Offer Response Due Date"?? How are we supposed to respond when we haven't yet received an offer ?♀️
BoxingAndMPH Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 Hey guys, I applied to UofT epi, and the deadline was Jan 18. My university did not give me my updated transcript in time (which included my Fall 2020 grades). I just used the one I had available. Is that okay?

I know they updated it and its confusing to navigate, but the previous BearTracks showed the status of your application as well. If not, then it'd be best to email the department and ask about it. moonjar 1

I've looked all over the new beartracks and haven't found that section. Looks like they removed it to avoid redundancies between Launchpad for undergrad and GSMS for graduate. moonjar 1

Yeah, that should be okay-- they look at your GPA from your last 20 classes (I think they calculate each course as 0.5 credits so that's 10 credits). Ideally they want your most recent marks, so I'm guessing they'll be asking for an updated/final transcript for those who are graduating in spring 2021. BoxingAndMPH 1

I believe they look at your last 10 credits tho, may be wrong

I also have April 15th deadlines for the US programs and I'm worried I won't even hear from U of T by then.. I'm currently debating between Columbia, Johns Hopkins, and Tufts (joint Nutrition masters). What about you? I was worried I wouldn't hear from McGill by then, but I literally just found out today so I wouldn't lose hope just yet! Also, it seems Canadian schools want an answer sooner than US schools, so maybe the later the notification the better lol

Which stats and experiences did you apply to McGill with if you don't mind me asking I'm applying straight from undergrad with a 3.61 GPA from an American university. I have over a year of research assistant experience, plus public health internship experiences mainly in the communications/education realm. I didn't know if I met the minimum stats requirement since I had a B in my one undergrad statistics course but I got in so maybe that wasn't everything!
