writethebeats Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) Waitlisted at UBC for the MA program! To be expected since it’s not the greatest fit. Will be emailing McGill again today since that’s the program I really hope to hear back from. Edited February 27, 2018 by writethebeats
writethebeats Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 McGill promptly answered back that they are still finalizing MA applications for any of you that are also waiting!
RainDays Posted February 27, 2018 Posted February 27, 2018 The Graduate Coordinator at McGill emailed me again today (by mistake I think, since she already responded to my email). She said that often the applications are still listed as "submitted" and not "under review" even though they are actually under review. She said Phd McGill applicants would hear back "soon". Lol. She said that all applications are now under review.

Or have only the acceptances gone out? WhatIsSleep 1
WhatIsSleep Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Accepted to Western for PhD, via email. Now I have to start taking the decision making process seriously. I want parts of all the programs ... I think most people here are waiting on UBC and McGill ... they seem to have sent rejections out first? Anyway, this is going on long now and we're all worn out. I really hope you get news today, or at the very least, this week. Fingers crossed for good news!!!

gemmi Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Has anyone heard whether McGill sent any notices this week?

BlessMeWithSnow Posted March 2, 2018 Author Posted March 2, 2018 Got an email that sent me to the acceptance on uApply for the MA at McGill!!! WhatIsSleep and writethebeats 2
gemmi Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Congrats guys! Did these acceptances in include funding?

writethebeats Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 16 hours ago, gemmi said: Congrats guys! Did these acceptances in include funding? No mention either. I will be emailing on Monday to see what the status of that is!
la_mod Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Finally heard back from Toronto after that cryptic email last week! They also offered a small scholarship, which was nice.
RainDays Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Anyone hear anything at all about McGill PhD English? Still no word and PhD's were supposed to hear either way last week...
RainDays Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Also question to all of you - is it bad form/annoying to email the graduate coordinator a second time with a request for a date of results when the initial date given has passed (twice now)? My other offer deadlines are rapidly approaching.....

My other offer deadlines are rapidly approaching..... I would say it's definitely not frowned upon. I emailed twice in two weeks and the DGS was extremely sweet about it. I also emailed the head of the graduate department at McGill about funding and received the most pleasant personalized response directly referencing my application documents and previous work.
olfactory Posted March 6, 2018 Posted March 6, 2018 Has anyone heard back from U of T for their MA yet? I'm an international student & worried about how slim my chances are, but still...
