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 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkirstein Posted March 13, 2021 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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?

bunmocsuon Posted March 15, 2021 Share 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?
