I wasn't able to make the cut-off for Mac's MMI so I'm just really worried about my GPA! Hi!! Mac's OT (first round of offers) last year 3.72 and this year 3.77. Queen's last year was around 3.3. Western 3.7 for waitlist and don't know specific cut off for Toronto but it's probably around 3.7 for waitlist aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can imgine the heartbreak I felt and the anxiety it's causing me this year. I applied to more OT schools this year to improve my chances. I am more hopeful this year since I was able to make the cut-off for Mac's MMI. And thank you. All the best to you as well. I really hope this is your year!

I totally know the frustration of not being able to meet the cutoffs but don't give up if you know what your dream career is. The system is unfair.

On their website, it says they will review all applications that meet the minimum 3.0 required, however, they follow that by saying it is "extremely difficult to get an offer of admissions with less than a 3.5-3.7." On another page, it says the average admission GPA was a 3.7 for previous years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the school websites have a “minimum required” sGPA to apply but the reality is much higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OThopeful2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 has anyone in here applied to the U of M OT program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PThopeful23 Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Good luck to everyone tomorrow! I wish everyone could get an offer! I accepted my offer to the MPT program at UBC which was my first choice so I will be declining any offers (if given an offer) from Ontario Schools so hopefully that gives everyone a better chance! For those who are unsuccessful this year, don't give up on something you are passionate about! Many of the students that were accepted into the MPT program at UBC this year were 2nd and even 3rd time applicants! Don't give up! Best of luck everyone :)!
