There are two concentrations listed Human-centered Computing and UXD, not sure whether that mean I could choose or something. Will the funding info comes in sometimes recently? I applied in early Jan, emailed Andrea two weeks ago since I got another offer due at Mar 15th and they kindly started reviewing my application immediately, and the results comes in fast Expand Congrats! The concentrations on your letter don't mean anything, ( I asked Andrea about the same ) and you are free to choose any once you enroll into MI. You probably mentioned these 2 while filling up the application hence they appear on the letter.

Mine was under review around the same time as yours but Im too nervous to ask. And what's your background if u dont mind sharing. Expand I asked about the expected timeline, was surprised with a decision lol. I am currently doing a bachelors in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Ropar, India. Will graduate this summer.
gdkan Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 I THINK (?) I got in! I got an invite for the Masters program on ACORN - not sure of when I'll get an official email/status update though

tkirstein Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 I got an offer yesterday! I applied in mid-January (although my references weren't submitted until the end of January) to the Archives and Records Management concentration. I have a BA Honours from the University of Saskatchewan in Classical, Medieval, and Renaissance Studies and my average was 87%/3.8.

My final year GPA was a 4.0 (according to the UofT GPA scale) and my cGPA was a 3.3 (didn't do great in the first and second year lol). My application turned to under review in late February and I got an offer on March 12, so I guess I waited around two weeks? Edited March 14, 2021 by a_car
bunmocsuon Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 Hi guys, I'm currently an international student in the U.S and I'm planning to apply to UofT Master of Information. Since I've never been to Canada and not sure about the UX job market there, is UofT MI program with a concentration in UXD good and recognized within Toronto and Canada?
uoftstudent2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 any offers / rejections? waiting super anxiously

I’m pretty sure they sent out a round of acceptances at that time. You should probably reach out to Andrea if you are still waiting!
sherbeaar Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 I just got an invitation to enrol in the program on Acorn as well!! Super excited! Agreed that it’s best to reach out to Andrea if you’re really anxiously waiting to hear back
Hello66 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Are you a domestic or an international applicant?
Hello66 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Did you get an invitation on Acorn or Did you get an email before? I heard only students studying at UofT for their undergrad get it on Acorn first.
sherbeaar Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Nope haven’t gotten an official email yet, I basically just checked Acorn and the invite showed up - I checked yesterday too and it wasn’t there at the time haha

Hello66 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 An invite on acorn means are you accepted. Im confused because there is no official email from them yet!
