hopefulPT000 Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 Hi everyone, I've been placed on the waitlist for Queen's PT and was wondering if anyone knows how many people are on the waitlist and how much movement there typically is? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyMPT Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 I'm curious too. I'm #11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayraaawwrr Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 I'm #65 but this is for OT. Do you know when we hear back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newuser Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 @OTerapista how did you find out your waitlist number for Queens OT? I'd like to know mine, the suspense is killing me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinmccluck Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 I got waitlist at Queen's (#36) too, but unfortunately I don't know any more information than you do. Hopefully someone else can help us out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conham Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 Queen's historically sends out more acceptances than they have seats, predicting that a certain amount of them will reject their offers. This means they will not go down the waitlist as much. How much they go down the waitlist depends on how many reject their offers. Varies year to year but sometimes they don't go down the waitlist, other years i think they go down the waitlis like 5-15 spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehab4Life Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Waitlisted at Queen's as well. Who knows how it is year to year, but I think I remember reading somewhere that someone got in a couple years back after being #23 on the waitlist. Hopefully someone with some experience can chime in. It's odd how schools make such long waitlists yet they never intend on going down so far.

PTWorld Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 My friend in Queen's PT class of 2018 said his mate got in off the waitlist at 30 something last year. Hopefully, it's something like that this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was # 15 on the waitlist but Kathy said I moved up to #9 (guessing 6 people above me opted to be removed from the waitlist). Hopefully, you hear some good news in the coming days-weeks!!!

Rehab4Life Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Anyone else get off the waitlist since last Monday? I heard they were potentially making more calls today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopefulPT000 Posted June 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 Received an email regarding the waitlist yesterday night. Class is now full and waitlist has gotten up to #28. I'm #29, so I'm really trying to be patient here. Does anyone know the likelihood of someone changing their mind last minute? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damnnnnn, that's stressful. I got the email too. I was originally in the 40s so my hope has ended. From what I gather, it's not necessarily likely; however, I've heard there can sometimes be 1 or 2 people that bail right before their university program starts (all programs, not just PT). I would guess if someone couldn't get the funds, had a change of heart or some sort of emergency. Are you close enough to move if they called you last minute? Like the week before classes begin, or maybe the week of, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm from Vancouver but I would be willing to fly and move there whenever I get the call haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person I spoke to about this once said that it has happened in the past, but has usually happened last second type of thing. Good luck to you too, I hope you get in!
