I was hoping to connect with any students currently in the SLP program at the University of Toronto? I know this isn't the best place to find current students, but if any happen to see this I just have a few questions - thank you so much in advance!

flyforyourlife Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Hi all! I wondered if there are any current students in Ontario SLP programs who could tell me if they think it’s possible to work part-time while in the program?

forevertallulah Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Does anyone know if entrance scholarships are given at the same time as an offer of admission, or are they typically offered later?

HopefullyASoonToBeSLP Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Hey everyone! This was my first year applying for SLP. I received my rejection letter from UofA on March 29th and was devastated. However, yesterday I received an acceptance from UBC! I am over the moon. Let me know if there is a Facebook group chat for UBC, I would love to join as I have just sent off my acceptance email. 😊 Looking forward to meeting you all this September. 2nd year Dal Student, SoaringSLP, 15itspossibleslp and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered if there are any current students in Ontario SLP programs who could tell me if they think it’s possible to work part-time while in the program? Just trying to plan out my life haha I'm currently an SLP student at UofT and work part time on the weekends. It's doable but was quite difficult in the beginning. Anything more than just working weekends wouldn't be feasible, especially considering how we were in classes every day of the week for our first unit. Our second unit we had Fridays off but I still elected to keep that as a study day. I'm glad I kept my job and I'm managing but everyone is different of course. 2nd year Dal Student and flyforyourlife 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just trying to plan out my life haha UofT student here as well, I've been working from home up to 20 hours a week (including weekends) but would definitely not recommend. I still got very good grades but I barely got any sleep to catch up on work or readings. I do also feel like that my learning and enjoyment of the program were affected a bit, so unless you really need to make some money I'd avoid it, or work max 10 hours/week Edited April 8, 2023 by Owl.on.a.Slide 2nd year Dal Student, SoaringSLP and flyforyourlife 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechiegal Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Hey all! I’m wondering if anyone knows if Dalhousie reserves a certain amount of out-of-province seats for admission? I’m trying to gage what my chances are as someone who doesn’t live in Atlantic Canada. Thanks in advance:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard great things about both schools, but McMaster University has a very unique way of teaching that is very problem based, which I definitely prefer to more standard lecture work. (Also my boyfriend and I are moving in together and he is working around Hamilton, which made the decision a lot easier as well hahah). I would recommend maybe reaching out to current students at both schools and talking to them. Of course they will both be biased, but it will give you some more insight. I truly don't think theres a bad decision though! Hey I am currently a Mac Student feel free to message me I would love to help as I chose Mac over Western and couldn't be happier! pangolin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddieee Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Has anyone who applied to UBC not heard anything yet or have any insights? I haven't heard anything and wondering if there is still a glimmer of hope. Those who have already been accepted/waitlisted, are you from BC or out of province? Thanks  and congrats to everyone who has been accepted!
