I know how you feel!! I'm so done with this unfair admission systemn Canadian schools are ridiculously difficult to get into and my only comfort is that I am not alone in this mess. This year I got waitlisted at McMaster OT and I am hopeful but I have zero faith in the system. It's causing me too much anxiety. I do have a full-time job but OT is what I want to do. I understand your frustration. Many people don't even know their career passion and I am glad you know what you want. So please don't give up and hopefully you will get to make an informed decision. Also, all the best for Dal OT. I'm rooting for you.

Hey, are you an OT or PT applicant?
-
I can understand. I am on the same boat with Western :/. I would say contact them. If you get a response then you might get an explanation. I say worth contacting them and take your chances.

Yes! Same. I got waitlisted at McMaster #1 lol rejected from UofT :S not even a waitlist offer. Seems bit odd. I'll be happy with any OT admisison offer. I just need 1 offer anyways.

Did you get an email offer from Queen's? Nvm, just saw your reply above. And congratulations!!
-
Anyone with multiple OT offers planning on declining McMaster's offer? Lol I'm #1 on the waitlist.
-
On May 18 right?
-
Not sure if this applies to all schools, when I got waitlisted for McMaster's OT MMI invite, I just remained on the waitlist and didn't have to confirm to stay on the waitlist. I'm sure emailing the school will help you remove yourself from the list. I only had to send a confirmation once I was offered an interview invite.
-
I'm #27 on the waitlist. I would like to know aswell. Thanks.

I thougt McMaster was strickly GPA based when deciding ranking. I have over 4000 hrs working with special needs children. I don't know what more I can do to boost my chances. I still have few more schools to hear back from. Fingers crossed. All the best to you.
-
Omg. My GPA is 3.76 and I didn't even make the waitlist cut how does McMaster decide their ranking?
-
March 16th this year. I emailed Mac directly and that's the date they told me about. 9 more days!
