bruh Posted May 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Does this mean the class is pretty much full already?? Every year they go through a whole interview score from 3.99GPA down to 3.88 and this year they haven’t even got to 3.93. Maybe an unusually high number of waitlisters accepted their offer this cycle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe an unusually high number of waitlisters accepted their offer this cycle? I'm pretty sure uOttawa sends an email once the class has been officially filled. However, I am unsure if they send the email when the entire class (both French and English) is filled, or when a specific stream/language is filled (the stream of the applicant).

Or maybe an unusually high number of people with low 3.9s didn’t post online this year... Or maybe an unusually high number of people accepted their original offer this year...

Yeah for sure lol, 4 course is still full time at Ottawa tho (not like western full course load), just wondering if a 3.98 is better with a year with 9 class then having in the low 3.9...

I am pretty sure that to apply, you must be taking 10 courses during the year in which you are applying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlameGrilledChicken Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 Just wanted to let people know, got an offer few days ago, but after some deliberation, will be declining it!

PokemonTrainer Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 For those who were accepted off the waitlist last week, when is the deadline to respond to the offer? I just wanted to have an idea of when we can expect another round of waitlist movements. Maggie19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medhopeful7748 Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 For me it says June 4th! Good luck to everyone still on the waitlist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whyudodistome Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 Okay I called them to ask what is going on. It was Diane who replied and she says she is not sure if the first wave of calls/emails for the people on the waitlist is done or not. I asked specifically for CNFS and she said she does not know, because it is Chantale who takes care of this stuff. She said Chantale has been gone since Friday and only comes back tomorrow. She also said that they will be sending an email to the waitlisters once the class is entirely full, but NOT after a specific stream is full. So say CNFS was full, we’d only know when the entire class is complete. She really wasnt much help since she is not aware of anything. erythrocyte, Maggie19, TheApiarist and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of highlights the point that while everyone here is super focused on all of this stuff etc, often delays etc are simply because of something going on elsewhere that has nothing to do with the admission process. No invites for awhile? Maybe someone is on vacation. Does make it easier to relax I know overall but maybe just a bit perhaps. The office staff at the schools are not insensitive to students demand for more information but they also have their own lives. If say their sister's wedding is during waitlist time then they have to go (as a made up example etc). Maggie19 and -D- 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
