MedicineLCS Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 Typically it looks like French and English offers go out on separate days. There are logistics behind sending an offer (OMSAS, accounts, etc...). The offer response deadline is June 15th for this round, BTW. Good luck to everyone who is still waiting, it's far from over!

littleduck Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 I just wanted to come back on here and give a big thank you to @newmy88 for created and editing the spreadsheet which has helped everyone so much! I want to thank @BingBop for creating this group! I also want to thank @MedicineLCS for always supporting and helping everyone during stressful times in the forum! Lastly, I want to thank everyone who has been positively rooting for each other, because without the support you all provided it wouldn't have been been possible. Another thank you to @grepefruit12 for stressing alongside me LOL! Congrats to @WuhanClan, @MedicineLCS and @grepefruit12! Looking forward to next year! The waitlist seems to be moving so I am exciting to hear some good news in following days from you guys! These past weeks have been stressful but this forum has been the most entertaining thing ever... you guys are amazing! newmy88, askingforforgiveness, greysweater and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grepefruit12 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 For those who are still waiting, there is definitely still hope! According to the email, it seems that each school in Ontario receives a report from OUAC which lets them know which students haven't accepted an offer yet. That could explain why there wasn't any movement last Thursday/Friday and suggest that offers will may be sent earlier in the week on Mondays.

Just to clarify do you think it'll now be a wave once a week until the "class full" email? Or rather that we could have waitlist movements that are restricted to the start of the week (i.e. Monday-Wednesday and just not Thursday-Fridays) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offers have been sent on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, etc... I wouldn't hold onto any hope of a specific day (although you're very close, so maybe by the end of the week?) The acceptance letter has 9 pages of requirements and forms, many needing to be emailed, so there is definitely a logistical lag to sending waitlist offers if you need to also manage questions/accepted paperwork.

Yeah that definitely makes sense--thanks for explaining. Chantal and the team are definitely dealing with a lot rn so the randomness is expected. I'll definitely keep busy with other stuff to help push the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmy88 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 OH MY GOD CONGRATS EVERYONE!!!! THIS IS THE KINDA MOVEMENT I'M TALKING BOUT Y'ALL. So happy to see more people get in. Praying that there's more to come though! Even if it trickles... let it trickle! Hope is not lost until that class is full e-mail goes out. An optimistic thought to everyone waiting - maybe so many people declined their original offer that they felt comfortable enough moving the waitlist early because there were so many spots. We'll see!

greysweater Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 After the 2020/2021 admission cycle changes at UofT today, really hoping for a life line from Ottawa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedicineLCS Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 You should be fine. I looked back a couple years and it appears that Ottawa always clears the top waitlist bin and starts to get into the next waitlist bin a varying amount as far as I can tell, usually in early June. It's not over until registration day (end of August). greysweater and newmy88 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greysweater Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 @MedicineLCS Thank you you have no idea how much that helps @Ganglion They've reduced the wGPA calculation to reduce 2 full lowest courses MAX rather than drop 1 full course per year UG completed.
