Ill let everyone know if/when I hear back! I got waitlisted this morning too and asked if they could disclose how many people are on the waitlist but they said no =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marblestatue Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 For those of you on the waitlist, it's moving! I received an offer to nominate to GPS yesterday. Good luck everyone! ju_OT17 and hopefulOT2019 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ju_OT17 Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Just curious - do all of you who have nominations, have at least functional competence in French? And if not, do you see that as a concern in doing the program? I ask because I'm just a beginner in the language myself and worried about being functionally communicative for the fieldwork portion if I happen to get in the program.

wangxian Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 1 hour ago, hopefulOT2019 said: I do not have a basic/functional level of french, english only. I’m not worried about it, my brother goes there in the PT program currently and he has been fine. They try and get mostly-english placements for those that need it. The one time he was placed in a more-french setting he had to communicate with his placement preceptor that he needed translations, etc. and that helped a lot. That's interesting to hear since I've heard some others say you need to develop functional French. Do you know if it was easy for him to get english placements, or were they pretty limited?

McGillOT Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 Hi I accepted my offer for OT today! Please message me if you're going to OT too I'd love to get know everyone! I also am a beginner in French so glad to hear someone has not been having a hard time in the PT program. I hope to improve my French over the summer.

Anonyme123 Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 I've been wait listed since April 12. I've been reading that people just got waitlisted this month. What does that mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, I wasn't on the waitlist until last week, if you've been on for so long you should've gotten in by now. I'd try contacting them and seeing if you get an update atleast.

So Anonyme123’s theory is plausible.. I was also waitlisted for McGill last week and haven’t heard anything yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was waitlisted and got an acceptance in a few days after the weekend so I don't know what that means. I was given a week to accept so maybe on Monday the list will start moving with people finding out about Ontario schools. Please have faith! I would try contacting them too about how many spots they have left. Maybe they'll say something. I hope this helps and good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I applied for PT not OT at McGill, I don't know if there is a difference in the admission process Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
