I know that in the past people said that they got in from the second quadrant and maybe people get offered from 3/4th quadrants b/c posts on the forum seem to fizzle later in the summer when those offers might go out. In can't find it rn but someone on a thread last year said that they were told by Janet that there are 100 people placed on the waitlist. I would assume that would mean 25 people in each SpeechieAlly, slp20210 and Luck26 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It obviously could have changed but just thought I’d mentioned it! Luck26 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it would make sense to have 52 people on the waitlist for 52 seats! That is how McGill does it as well. They have 20ish seats and around 20-30 people in their waitlist!

I definitely read that Janet said that there were 100 people one year, but also very possible that it was an exceptional year or that they anticipated really high turnover for some reason Edited April 3, 2021 by neuroling SpeechieAlly, thespeechdream, coco_SLP and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thespeechdream Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Hi Everyone! Congrats on all the acceptances and waitlist offers as well! For those who did not receive an offer this year, please do not lose hope! You have all worked so hard and good things are waiting to come!! I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be accepting UofT's offer and declining Mac's and McGill's offer so I hope this helps out some people! Good luck!

thespeechdream Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Hi Guys! I just had a quick question regarding final transcripts. UofT's offer letter said that you need to make arrangements ASAP for ORPAS to receive your final transcripts. Does anyone know how that process works? Do we have to put in another transcript request to ORPAS or is it done automatically for us? onaspeechcrayz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also under the impression that there were 100 people but I’d much prefer if it were 52 haha! If anybody asks Janet please PM me with the info if you’re comfortable. I have a bit of a suspicion that the waitlist this year may be longer than average due to the unpredictability of the pandemic. Trying to cover all their bases ?
