CanPlan Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 (edited) Accepted from the UBC wait list! I accepted another offer already, but I'll be awkwardly forfeiting that deposit. edit: I'm not on social media so I won't be joining any of the groups for incoming students. However, I've lived in Vancouver for 6 years and immigrated to Canada from the US. If anyone has questions about the city or moving across borders, definitely reach out!

McFrench Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 For anyone who extended their decision deadline at UCLA - have you heard back on any additional funding yet? Also FYI for anyone waiting on waitlist decisions from Berkley, I heard back on Friday (officially rejected). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got their email too but I'm still on the waitlist. The long wait is killing me! Anyway, do you mind sharing when is your UBC offer acceptance deadline? I'd like to speculate on when might I hear back from them again...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if/when they'll send out notices that we are officially denied?

yellowsurf Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Looks like someone on the Results said they were accepted off the waitlist on April 21. Oh well, things don’t look so hot for us, but fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anxiousraj Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 On 3/23/2021 at 3:18 AM, Vancouver Planner said: I did not! I'm based in vancouver and am really able to move for a variety of reasons. i'm older (29), have a masters in history from NYU (with applicable academic experience), work as a management consultant full time and own a company that i operate on evenings/weekends. no direct planning experience or fields of study (other than what i did in history). 3.95 gpa in my masters, 79% CGPA from western (much higher average in upper level courses). think i flubbed my interview, but would love to know what successful applicants profile is like? will definitely be re applying next year and hoping there's things i can accomplish between now and then to make myself more competitive also - does anyone have any insight into whether the interview was really the critical component of the application? or just another part of it? many thanks everyone, and again my heartfelt congratulations to those of you who were accepted!!! Hey! I got in and I would love to answer any questions you may have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlanneDesign Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Has anybody on the waitlist for either UWashington or Columbia heard anything yet? Washington said the latest would be mid-June, but I'm not sure if anyone's heard back yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad to hear they're at least moving on the process - so hopefully I should hear back a definite answer soon. If you don't mind me asking, did they offer any funding? I've been holding out for Columbia, but only because of the *very* minimal chance in my head that they may both (1) accept me AND (2) offer funding.

No, based on what I know about GSAPP, they don't offer any funding to international students... Since you are students in the State, what I got might not apply to you.
