excitedforfuture Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Hey guys, I got waitlisted this year for U of A OT. Just wanted to start this forum so people can maybe see if the list is going to make any movements. I’m not sure if I’m in the top or bottom of the list.

If you email asking if you’re in the upper or bottom half they will tell you and the waitlist usually moves by half! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saskhopeful Posted April 24, 2020 Report Share Posted April 24, 2020 I have been placed on the Saskatchewan wait list. Does anyone know about what movement on the sask wait list has been like in past years? Best of luck to everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureOTHopeful Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 Hi! I got wait listed too but emailed them and they told me I am in the top half! Where does everyone else stand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasky Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 I'm in the upper half of the SK waitlist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsoluteDingus Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 They only told me I was in the top half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OT0213 Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Unfortunately I was told I was in the lower half. Hoping it’s the top of the lower half. AbsoluteDingus and ShadesofCyan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saskhopeful Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Has anybody heard anything from UofA yet? I know that today is the first day that they can offer people spots from the waitlist! I'm starting to get anxious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rehabhopeful Posted May 11, 2020 Report Share Posted May 11, 2020 I just declined my offer to U of A so the waitlist will be moving by at least one spot I think! Best of luck! FutureOTHopeful and AbsoluteDingus 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT0213 Posted May 19, 2020 Report Share Posted May 19, 2020 Nothing here. Been wondering the same. Haven’t heard of any movement. I’m sure once the Ontario schools come out it will start moving. jamz_883 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saskhopeful Posted May 21, 2020 Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 I received an email from the university on May 15th offering me a seat in the program! I was on the Saskatchewan wait list!

AbsoluteDingus Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 So I emailed them today and they told me there's still been no movement. Hopefully things still work out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsoluteDingus Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 I have not heard of any movement last time I checked, I wonder if it's because they're slow to open up? I'm certain that at least some people must have declined their offer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always call and ask the office about movement but for those of you who are anxious, the Facebook group for the first years has 95 members not including upper years so that would leave at least 25 spots for people on the waitlist provided all those who were accepted joined the group as was recommended.

I suppose you were right; I just received my acceptance for u of A's OT a few hours ago! Thank you all for riding it out with me and I wish you all the best of luck! jamz_883 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTAlbertahopeful Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 I've been accepted to UBC, but U of A is my first choice! Does anyone know whether there is more waitlist movement near the end of the summer? A few weeks ago they said I was around #25-35...I'm anxious as I'll have to decide soon since I'd need to move to Vancouver if U of A doesn't accept me. I'd be okay with Calgary campus as well! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! Hi! How did you find out that you are 25-35? Did you ask your standing and they gave you a range? Wish I could help with your question but unfortunately I don't have the answer (or even the slightest clue). Congrats on getting accepted into UBC but fingers crossed you get into U of A!

OTAlbertahopeful Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Hi! I actually emailed asking if they could give me an idea of where I am on the waitlist, and they gave me that range. They said they'd only respond to one waitlist inquiry per month and that the waitlist is only moving slightly. Thanks though! I'm nervous to move to a new city during a pandemic, but I guess I should start mentally prepare myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
