kckc Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 To those who have been accepted to U of T, did you get a call from faculty today? Yup same here! So sweet of them to call.
eej-slp Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Ah! On the waitlist for Dal! Anyone know how long this is/what the movement looks like? Congrats to all those on the Ontario/Mcgill acceptances lately! Enjoy the rewards of your hard work! This is my second year applying, so I'm okay with at least a waitlist.

How were you contacted about the waitlist?
SLP333 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I just found out I'm on the waiting list at Dal. They contacted me by email! Does anyone know how many people are placed on the waiting list?
penelope46 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Also waitlisted at Dal via email. My second year applying too.. sigh. Their email address is listed in the contact info.. I wonder can we just reply in an email or do we have to print off and sign the letter?
trejsi Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Waitlisted at Dal too! 3rd year of being waitlisted. Hope this is the year I get the call.

I wonder can we just reply in an email or do we have to print off and sign the letter? I was wondering the same thing! It looks like they want us to print it off though I think.
penelope46 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I was wondering the same thing! It looks like they want us to print it off though I think. Yeah I agree, otherwise why would they even bother attaching that information. I think I'll sign it, scan and email it..
kdot Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 to all those wondering if you have to sign the form for dal you do! when I accepted my offer I just emailed saying that I would accept and she said once they received the letter she would change my status in their system.
CDAtoSLP Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Did Anyone also apply to U of T for Occupational Therapy? I did and I haven't heard a thing yet. I would have thought I would get a rejection letter in the mail by now, sis I already got the Acceptance package for SLP Thanks
MtlGal Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I also got waitlisted for Dal, but I can say for sure my spot will be freed up, as it's my last choice! Does anyone else think Dalhousie seriously needs to update their application process? Did Anyone also apply to U of T for Occupational Therapy? I did and I haven't heard a thing yet. I would have thought I would get a rejection letter in the mail by now, sis I already got the Acceptance package for SLP Thanks I remember reading on ORPAS that OT/PT have a later date for sending out replies, some time in May I believe. Don't give up just yet!
SALY Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I also got waitlisted for Dal, but I can say for sure my spot will be freed up, as it's my last choice! Does anyone else think Dalhousie seriously needs to update their application process? I remember reading on ORPAS that OT/PT have a later date for sending out replies, some time in May I believe. Don't give up just yet! I am going to reject my waitlist position as I already got into my first choice. So hopefully that will give another person a chance to get waitlisted as well!
MtlGal Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I am going to reject my waitlist position as I already got into my first choice. So hopefully that will give another person a chance to get waitlisted as well! I'm considering doing it really old school and faxing it hahaha. I've never actually faxed anything before!
CaraL Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 I also got waitlisted for Dal, but I can say for sure my spot will be freed up, as it's my last choice! Does anyone else think Dalhousie seriously needs to update their application process? I remember reading on ORPAS that OT/PT have a later date for sending out replies, some time in May I believe. Don't give up just yet! Yes and no. I really liked that Dal allowed references to be submitted electronically, and their process (I found) much more comprehensive than the ORPAS one. I felt like I was actually able to present myself as a human in their app - I liked the essay prompt, being able to submit a CV, etc. With ORPAS it was mostly grades such a super brief statement and tiny descriptions of experiences. It was annoying to have to print out the documents and mail them for Dal though (I hate filling in PDFs...) so hopefully they update that soon!

I think being able to submit a portion of the application online, yet having to submit the rest by mail seemed strange. But yes, I totally agree with you, they seem to want to get to know you better as a person.
SLP121314 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Looks like a Dal has a long wait list ... anyone have an idea if the waitlist moves at all / roughly how many people are on it?
trejsi Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 CDAtoSLP: I did apply for OT at UofT and earliest date for offer of admissions is May 16th. Speaking of which, I got invited to the interview at Mac for OT, so that'll be something different!
emmer89 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Also waitlisted at Dal. Third year applying, second year on waitlist. waiting = the worst
princesspeech Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 hello everyone I've been accepted to U of T and Western but my Western spot should be freed up soon. I'm wondering if any of those at U of T have received their acceptance package in the mail yet?
