NSapp Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 Hey everyone- I just wanted to post my stats now that I've been accepted for applicants for the upcoming cycle! I know I personally found seeing where I stood in comparison to students from the previous cycle to be very helpful in the application process. Applied: Dalhousie OTAccepted: Dalhousie (off the waitlist)GPA: subGPA 3.77 (4.3 scale)Perceived strength of essays/interviews/references: No essay or interview for Dalhousie- one reference was my undergraduate research supervisor and the other was the department chair for my major- both wrote very strong references. I was a Nova Scotia applicant. I believe the reason I did not get accepted in the first round was my GPA. Hopefully this helps those of you who might be applying this year with similar averages- there is definitely a chance that you will be accepted!

hotwheels_11 Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Is it just me or does it look like people who relatively lower GPAs were accepted to Queen's, whereas people with high GPAs were rejected? Is it because Queen's looks more at the personal questions? I'm applying for 2015/16... any tips would be helpful!

Faith123 Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 You know the GPA cut offs for McMaster, UofT and Western are all 3.75+++? Hey, I just wanted to know how you know that? Do you know about Queens? I know all the schools are competitive, I am working on getting my GPA up, I'm only at 3.39 right now.

0zero0zero Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Applied: Mac OT, Western PTAccepted: Mac OTWaitlisted: Western PT (lower end of waitlist 120-180)cGPA (OMSAS): ~3.7 subGPA (OMSAS): 3.85 Perceived strength of essays/interviews/references: Western required a personal statement (PS) and two letters of recommendation (LOR), no interview. For the PS, they asked three questions, of which I think one answer was strong, and the other two were really weak. LORs were also really weak. No PT experience at all. For Mac, I did not have a stellar interview. I thought it was mediocre. Can't wait to meet the other Mac OT students! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
