PEP2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 I was offered normal waitlist today... hopefully there is lots of movement this year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acaringdocwannabe Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 I received a high waitlist position. I was wondering what the chances are of receiving an offer from HWL? Also, is it safe to assume that there will be no waitlist movement before May 29th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In past years, the high waitlist has tended to clear fully. Whether that will continue this year is to be seen. The waitlist in previous years did not start to move until at least 2 weeks post admissions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyanlater Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 is realistic for Western to reach the middle of the normal waitlist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernstmach Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 I am also on the normal waitlist this year, fingers crossed for lots of movement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopedthepants Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 In the 2018 entering year, 99 people rejected their offers (22%). It's still hard to say how many people on the normal waitlist will get in, since we don't know the size of the high waitlist, but stay strong!

betterlattethannever Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 Has anyone in the past ever gotten into the London campus off the normal waitlist before? Or is it just Windsor for the normal waitlist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isitlunchtimeyet Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 For everyone who's as neurotic as me i compared last year's dates to this year and came up with these as predicted days for waitlist movement: May 31st (friday) = high waitlist June 4th (tues) = normal waitlist DNM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife decided to look at every year she could find. She read back far enough that people were waiting for letters in the mail and asking what the envelopes looked like. I can't imagine having to wait for physical mail to arrive. From past cycles, she found a couple recent Thursdays where they got started with waitlist offers. 2017: Thursday 2016: Thursday 2015: Friday 2014: Friday 2013: Friday 2012: Monday 2011: Tuesday Obviously we're no closer to knowing when things will start to move, but I guess it helps to stay busy, right? isitlunchtimeyet and CHG 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yohohoy Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Is there any chance of getting off the bad waitlist by June 10th? I was fortunate enough to get into McMaster off their waitlist on Tuesday and I'm pretty set on accepting that offer but I wanted to ease my conscious a bit by convincing myself I had no choice anyway lol (because there's no chance I'll get off the Western waitlist in time, if it all) I was leaning just a bit towards McMaster before May 14th (60/40) anyway so I most likely would still choose Mac. Someone please just tell me there's no way I can get into Western off the bad waitlist by June 10th so I can just accept and appreciate the offer I have and be at ease lol. (also just a read a bit up the thread and learned that the lower on the waitlist you are the more likely you are to end up at the Windsor campus? That's different from Mac and would solidify my decision further) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
