Got rejected (IP, OOO, wgpa3.93). My stats will probably be the same next year, should I even bother applying? EDIT: to clarify, applying to ottawa again

 

I got an invite with 3.92 (3.918) OOP English, no Masters/PhD. I have no pubs, and no crazy EC’s. I probably did well on CASPer. You can definitely get an interview if your GPA is higher than mine. Just work on your CASPer!

I heard through the grapevine that people have been calling in, and that some of them did get interviews - it seems like a technical problem.

Not surprised - these bulk do it when you are gone approach seem to be prone to failure. 

Stressful for everyone - good luck for those that haven't got it yet if invites are in there as well!

Anyone still waiting for confirmation from admissions that they received our acceptance to the interview?

I don’t think they confirmed that they received our confirmation last year! I remember having a conversation about it on here, haha. As long as the email is in your sent box, you should be fine! :)

I did get an email confirming my confirmation ( sounds weird) this year. I think they're just a bit busy atm, so give it a day or two, and you'll probably hear back.

Does anyone know the number of interviews this year and for how many seats?

 

Not sure if this helps - last year when I didn't receive an interview from Ottawa, the rejection email said they would interview approximately 575 people for 164 seats. I assume it would be roughly the same this year! This year however, the numbers weren't stated on my invite to interview, so I can't say for sure. :)

4293 applicants of which they will interview approximately 575 for 164 positions (from the rejection email)

Not sure for the exact numbers, but is about 100 French Stream applicants and 475 for English stream.

For french stream I believe 48 get in out of 100

For English stream it is 116/75

 

Someone correct my numbers if I am wrong!

I believe there are 90 french interviews with 48 spots reserved, with 8 of those spots being reserved CFNS (so 40 IP/OOP (QC)) spots, according to information @Donald_Duck provided.

That is correct there is only 40 spots, typically they interview about 90 for those.

Mr Duck

I'm slightly confused.  Are there only 40 spots for CFNS + French IP/OOP (therefore only 32 spots for IP/OOP)  or 40 spots for French IP/OOP + 8 spots reserved for CFNS for a total of 48? Thanks!

Has anyone who received an interview invite received the e-mail with the interview day details? It was supposed to be sent out 24-48 hours after the invite, but I still haven't gotten it yet.

Haven't received anything either. Hang tight, they're probably still getting through the e-mails they received after invites went out.
