Hi dextermorgan, got this from the GradCafe Survey.
University Of Toronto / OISE Teaching, Masters (F12) Accepted via Other on 20 Mar 2012 21 Mar 2012 Received on the same day both a letter in the mail (dated March 16) and an email from the dean. Good luck to everyone else!
chienkerwei, I think you should let OISE know that you've got your own funding (or you did already?).. it might help them make a more informed decison on your application. Good luck!
You're right, wheatGrass. In addition to having a prof advocating for your application and a very strong statement of intent, you also need strong references. Of course, your research interests have to be in line with those of your POI's.
Got accepted to the Ph.D. program in SLE via phone. Official acceptance letter will come in late March. Full funding for 4 years. So excited! Good luck to other applicants with their applications to UofT.
It's now the end of the third week of February and I still hear nothing. Has anyone been contacted for anything related to their application? The wait is killing me
I think it's a good idea to make initial contact with the faculty to see what they expect in a candidate. The competition as far as I was told is very keen at OISE, though. Good luck everyone!
