Pt/ot Accepted/waitlisted/rejected For 2015 Cycle

[dalOT_hopeful]

Hello, for anyone accepted off the Dal waitlist how long did it take to get the offer from faculty of graduate studies after the letter from OT saying you were recommended? Do you get an email or just actual mail? I got the email telling me I was recommended today and that graduate studies will make the final decision.

I got one for PT. It takes about a week for the FGS to email you. From that point, they will recommend you to the Registrar for confirmation and you will be mailed a package. It takes about two-three weeks tops for the whole process.

 

Hopes that helps and hopefully I run into you this Fall

Has anyone heard anything about U of A's OT waitlist movement?

[Futurept]

Just wondering how often it's okay to email about the wait list for physio? on the 15th I found out i was in the top 3, and it'll be 2 weeks this monday. Is it okay to email them again? Obviously i don't want them to get annoyed, but I'm really curious if it has moved in 2 weeks.

of course what have u got to lose. good luck.

I'm assuming this is about Queen's? 

 

I got an email on the 28th saying the class is now full. Doesn't mean you don't have a shot. There's no enrolment deposit for Queen's so if people decide to bail in the next few months, you'll get a call. Good luck!

thanks for letting me know!! Were you already accepted into the program when they emailed you telling you it was full? or were you on the wait list?

Applied: UBC, UofA, Western, Toronto, McMaster, Queens (all OT) 

Accepted: UofA

Rejected:

Wait Listed: UBC

GPA: 3.7 

Strengths: Very strong essays/personal statements. I have extensive course work, volunteer work and research in Occupational Therapy, so I'm sure that was a large contributing factor. My references are also very strong: an OT and a professor that I did OT research, who also used to be an OT professor at Western. I will be accepting UofA, so the UBC waitlist will be getting shorter:) 

 

 What number were you on the UBC waitlist?

Someone on U of M wait list should be hearing from them any day now good luck!
