@PeachesSpeech Under choices/offers, nothing there yet for me though. I was waitlisted at western last year and it never updated in ORPAS, not sure why it does for some and not others.

I got accepted into UofT. I only applied there for SLP. They didn't send any emails yet but it was a Firm Acceptance on ORPAS right at 12:01am, under offers & choices. No updates other than INVITE in ACORN too. ORPAS sent me an email after I confirmed my acceptance & it says "

my roomate got in uoft and mac! it seems mac emailed sometime in Feb to set up a grad portal account so look for that but she got an email at 12:25 saying a decision was made and to log in to the portal. We think mac is having some issues w ORPAS (we're here for undergrad tho so maybe thats why??)... but yea check for an email from SGS Admissions McMaster about a grad account

Congrats! Did you get the acceptance right away at 12 AM or did you have to refresh it a couple of times?

I was accepted to Western!! I'm assuming no one else has received an email from them yet? Planning on firmly accepting. I also want to mention that my sGPA was not extremely competitive (3.71) so please do not lose hope if you are waitlisted or reapplying next year ❤️

I  logged in right at 12:01 am, and it was there. But now my ORPAS says "processing application," so I can't log back in to see it.

Does anyone else still have no updates on their ORPAS Choices/Offers? Nothing has changed on mine at all. Does this mean no offers of admission?

When you say you got in "earlier", do you mean today or the 28th?

28th. I also got a rejection email from Western about 10 mins ago. 466 applicants is crazy!! congrats everyone

Got waitlisted for Western! I was expecting a rejection because my GPA wasn't good at all and I wrote my personal statement literally one day before LOL. Congrats to everyone who got accepted!

Can I ask what your GPA was? Did u have other aspects of your application like volunteer and research?

I got an offer from Mac but it isn’t on ORPAS so it’s possible it just hasn’t updated. The email said to log into the Mac portal.

Does anyone know if people still get offers of admission later on.. specifically UofT after people have gotten their acceptances right at 12..

Of course!! According to ORPAS my GPA is 3.68, which is ok but definitely not competitive. I worked as a BI for 2 years, volunteered in a pediatric clinic for 2 years, volunteered at a senior residence for few months, worked as an RA under a language acquisition lab for 1.5 years, and worked as a private tutor for 4 years!
