speech_123 Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Hi guys! Does anyone know if McGill is done making their calls? I see that two people got accepted yesterday, but I still haven't heard back. AlwaysanAssistant and RLSpine 2

AlwaysanAssistant Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 I've also heard that in the past they only called some of their accepted students and emailed the rest... Does anyone know if this is correct?
speechenthusiast Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Does anyone know if Dal will email, mail or call? Email is ideal for me currently but i'm not sure how they do it, or if they do all three
MELSLP99 Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Just got the call from McGill!!! Good luck to everyone still waiting, I know it’s hard but you got this!! ???? speechiestudent, AlwaysanAssistant, ewdavid and 9 others 12

I can't remember if this happened last year as well, so I'm freaking out a bit cause it's not April 1st yet. DM me if that's more comfortable for anyone. hey so my friend sees the tab and he clicked on the tab and it said 'Invited' does that mean he got in???? so weird because he's applied 2 times before and never seen the tab before AtBatts 1

speech_123 Posted March 22, 2022 Posted March 22, 2022 Got my call from McGill this afternoon that I have been accepted! Different people are calling accepted students so I don't believe they are going in alphabetical order. Good luck everyone speechiestudent, sophiaSLP, RLSpine and 3 others 6

aud_hopeful6 Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 For those of you that got accepted, do you guys mind sharing your stats? ?? Caitlin SLP Applicant and sophiaSLP 2
Caitlin SLP Applicant Posted March 23, 2022 Posted March 23, 2022 9 hours ago, damaei said: For those of you that got accepted, do you guys mind sharing your stats? ?? For sure! I’m very confident in my ability to be an excellent SLP but I honestly would have never imagined that I would get in! I struggled a lot in my second year (I had a fall term GPA of 2.6) and for a long time I wondered if I would even make it through my undergrad. But it goes to show that it’s never too late and to never give up on your dreams! ❤️ My stats are: First time applying CUM GPA: 3.8/4.3 or 3.6/4.0 (according to ORPAS) SUBGPA: 3.89/4.0 (according to ORPAS) B.A. First Class Honours in Psychology and minor in Drama with distinction I graduated in 2021 (I took a gap year this year to work on a project related to my undergrad thesis.) Research experience: Honours thesis, ISRG, independent study, and research assistant for three projects. I TA’d for three classes I was a tutor for an early language intervention program. I help lead conversation circles for people learning English in my community. I worked as a Behaviour Interventionist for an Autism centre. I only had a bit of shadowing experience (31 hours) I also have some diverse experiences not really related to SLP that I think may have helped: touring actor and director for a bilingual theatre company, Psych society prez, Rotaract prez, Student senator, swim instructor/coach ect…) I really don't think that their is a blueprint for a perfect SLP applicant. I feel like they are looking for diverse experiences in their students. But I hope this helps SpeechieAlly 1

Also do you see a list of courses on your account for MHSc on acorn? I don't so I am curious if that was a default status for anyone that applied to UofT specifically

Did I miss an email from them or something? I know Western will send you an email asking you to set up your Western ID but I've never gotten anything like that from UofT in the past, just the "thanks but no thanks" email on decision day ?

It's pretty much UofT's student services centre, I'm guessing those that can see it are already UofT students in another program. I am not one either, so we do not get access to it AtBatts and SLPrettyPlease 1 1

I do not see a list of courses it's just the tab saying invited. Could easily be the default or some glitch in their system tbh.... 2 hours ago, SLPrettyPlease said: I am lost - I also applied to UofT but I have no idea what acorn is?

And same last year, I didn't get any response to sign up for anything at UofT; just the rejection letter lol SLPrettyPlease 1
