    HopefullyPT2019 reacted to pt to be in Student Line of Credit Physiotherapy students   
    Has anyone been successful in getting student line of credit without a cosigner and without a solid job history. I would really appreciate if some one can talk about their experience of getting student line of credit for Ontario/Canadian PT schools.

    Hey ya'll! I figured I'd start a similar thread for OT applicants for UBC. Since the PT interview invites were sent out yesterday, ours will be coming out in the next couple of weeks. It looks like last year they were sent out on February 27th.
    (Thanks to @HopefullyPT2019 for the inspiration!)

    From what I remember, all the e-mails I got from UBC in the two years I was part of the admissions process it is usually later in the week (Thursday or Friday), so try to stay calm until at least then... 
    I've heard they take the lowest end also, and that was what I used to calculate my UBC GPA, but I do feel like they have to take into account each school's grading scale. I also found this on the UBC website, although it isn't perfect it can maybe give you a ballpark area of where you might be at!

    I personally think that the department would take everything into consideration when looking at applications, but I cannot say for certain if that is how they will calculate your GPA. My best guess is that they would take the mid-value within the range, but I could be wrong!

    Current 1st year here: Last year we got our invites around 4pm actually, but do note that we found out about one week earlier than most years have, and the department just had their accreditation review process so the chances of them being delayed are probably pretty high because administration was busy doing all those interviews, etc! 
    Don't forget to breathe!

    UBC is very very secretive about how they weigh out everything, so even after decisions are made there most likely won't be any information on cut-off, weight of different things etc., even being in the program now I have no idea how it works! 
    All I know is that the CASPer is being used to help get a better sense of who you are before the interviews!
