Hank Scorpio Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Hey, all! Accepted an offer from Ryerson for my MA in Philosophy...excited to move to Toronto for the first time, but also nervous! Anyone else headed that way in the fall?
Tr123456 Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 i'm still waiting to hear back from ryerson MA phil...really want to go...i'm from toronto but just finishing up school out east. do you mind if i ask what your GPA was when applying? i have a 3.58... not sure what my chances are!!!
Hank Scorpio Posted April 6, 2012 Author Posted April 6, 2012 I don't mind at all! My cumulative GPA was actually only 2.36...but in the final two years of my BA, my GPA was somewhere between 3.8 and 3.9. I'm currently in F'ton, NB. Where are you finishing up your BA?
Tr123456 Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 i'm at dalhousie. the last two years my GPA was only around a 3.6... i don't think my writing sample was AMAZING...and i was iffy about how my letters of recommendation would be. i heard recently that they MAY be making more offers, so I guess I will have to wait and see if more people decline! I hope so!
Hank Scorpio Posted April 6, 2012 Author Posted April 6, 2012 My fingers are crossed for ya! What area(s) of philosophy interest you?
Tr123456 Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 mainly policy ethics and philosophy of law. i'll be sure to let you know when i find out what happens!
Hank Scorpio Posted April 7, 2012 Author Posted April 7, 2012 Yes, please do! I'll be keen to find out!
