2nd year Dal Student Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I just got off the waitlist for Dal! Funny enough, they never contacted me so I didnt know I was on the waitlist. For those who havent heard from them, youre probably on the waitlist too! I already accepted else where, so I will be declining the offer, opening the spot to someone else Loly694 and Luck26 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would anyone be interested in a Discord server instead of a Facebook group? (would be neat to have organized channels!)

Mousse Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Does selecting "After Degree Conferred" for final transcript options on ORPAS also serve as proof of prerequisites completed (since I'm doing 2 this semester) and proof of graduation/diploma for conditional offers? slp20210 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustSpeachy Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I just recieved my offer from McMaster for SLP (I was waitlisted). I was declined at Western. I only applied to Mac and Western. I have a 3.9 sub-GPA for those who are curious. Very little volunteer experience and none directly related to the field. But I guess at Mac you just need to have the grades and perform well enough on the MMI. Anyway, I am probably going to accept. I didn't think I was going to get in to be honest, and I was starting to lean more towards Audiology for next year's application. But I am still very interested in SLP, and given how hard it is to get in, I think it would be foolish to decline, especially since there are very few Audiology programs (and I would probably only apply to Western, if I chose to go that route). Anyone have any thoughts/advice? I'm still a bit stunned. The news hasn't really sunk in yet, but obviously I feel very fortunate to be accepted. Good luck to everyone and don't give up hope if you are on a waitlist. 2nd year Dal Student, Mousse and rmaam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to everyone and don't give up hope if you are on a waitlist. Congrats! How much time do you have to accept your offer? Also do you know what number you were on Mac’s waitlist? Definitely take the time and try to speak with people who work in audiology and SLP, try to think about which one aligns with your personal goals & interests the most. I worked with an SLP and she told me that essentially everyone who gets into SLP has “an SLP major” and an “audiology minor” so you still get to learn about both fields as they are intertwined. I’m sure you’ll make the best decision! Also western aud (I’m waitlisted rn) really cares about your grades & volunteer experience almost equally, so if you wanted to go for it, you would have to take this year to try to volunteer with aud clinic to get those hours. Good luck and congrats again! SpeechieAlly and Wugs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me (as I had already been accepted) but there's been a couple people join the Facebook page we have over the last week who say they got accepted off the waitlist, so there has been some movement! I also know for UofA there's no deposit, so some people might be holding onto an acceptance there and then might end up declining if they choose to go elsewhere. I hope you hear back soon and get in!

Good luck and congrats again! Thanks for your response. I have to accept/decline the offer by before midnight this Sunday, so very soon. I was number 32 on the waitlist at Mac, so I didn't think my chances were that good. I definitely did not expect to receive an offer this soon. The biggest concern for me is that I have no volunteer experience in SLP or Audiology. I only started becoming interested in them last year. I was in teacher's college and realized that teaching is a terrible profession for me, so I started looking into other things. I would have loved to volunteer but it's nearly impossible because of Covid. So, I'm worried about going down another path that isn't good for me, and a lot of people have talked about how volunteering/shadowing was a huge factor in helping them make their decision.

MiaSLP Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Hey everyone! I received a first round offer to UofT and was waitlisted at Western, Dalhousie and McGill. I was in the first quadrant of the Western waitlist and ended up recieving an offer. I also received an offer to McGill as well. However, I will be attending UofT. Good luck everyone! Stay positive ❤️ Amy251 and 2nd year Dal Student 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
