I only got Western sign in info. I wouldn't say that! We won't know until tonight so don't give up hope! Acorn can be glitchy, there's still a chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What U of A considers an Albertan applicant, and what U of S considers a Saskatchewan residents are a bit different. If cost of living is important, check out the differences between cities. I'd love to be on the west coast and go to UBC, but a) I don't have physics and b) living in Vancouver is not within my budget. You may not have a lot of extra time when in school, but if there are activities that you love to do, like kayaking or skiing or biking, check out their availability near the schools you're most interested in, or if there are local groups that you can join. It makes it a bit less intimidating to move to a completely new place. Plus, with all the stress of school, we all need a little bit of fun. You got this! This is great, thank you for the help! Do you know if UBC accepts courses like biomechanics as a substitute for physics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammerz Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Hey everyone! This is a bit off topic. But I would love to know why people who applied for OT want to pursue that career, and also what your perceptions of OT as a profession are in Ontario and Canada, in terms of the demand? I keep reading online that the field is shrinking and being utilized less and less o_o OT-InTheMaking-2020 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newtoOT Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Mine says MSOT2 as well - I hope it's not UTM! 2 hours left - the SUSPENSE!! @jammerz , where did you read that? I feel like I've only read the opposite, and that the employment rate in Canada is something like 95%. Would be so interested to see if any current practicing OTs or OT students can comment! Edit: Tried to remember where I saw that statistic, it was from a post by CAOT: OT-InTheMaking-2020 and JC9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
