Accepted/Rejected/Waitlisted??? (for current applicants)

[Guest Ian Wong]

Hi all,

 

Here's a quick questionnaire regarding the admissions process at U of T. We ran this questionnaire last year, and I'd like to keep it going on an annual basis so we can generate some profiles of applicants who have been accepted, rejected, or placed on a waitlist for each school. If you are applying this year, please take a few minutes to fill out the below questions.

 

Please keep all replies focussed as answers to the below; I will delete any non-answers in this thread. If you have any questions, please start a new thread so that this one stays on topic. Please check out the big thread in the General Premed Forum as well to let us know which schools accepted you, and which ones waitlisted you or rejected you: pub125.ezboard.com/fpremed101frm0.showMessage?topicID=648.topic

 

If you can copy and paste the below form, and fill it out, that'd be awesome. If you want to contribute your GPA and MCAT stats in addition, that's great too.

I'm a (Province) resident in (undergraduate or graduate) studies. My GPA was (XYZ) and my MCAT scores were:

 

Physical Sciences: (x)

Verbal: (y)

Biological Sciences: (z)

Written Sample: (z)

 

I was (accepted/rejected/waitlisted) by U of T. This is my (first/second/third/more than third) time applying to this school.

 

Of all the schools I applied to, I'd like to attend (XYZ Med School) as my first choice.

Hi all,

 

I received my UofT acceptance this morning at around 10:30.

 

I am a 3rd-year undergrad living in Toronto. I will accept the offer and attend UofT, the only school at which I was interviewed.

 

Just so I don't have to post this later -- the envelope was white, regular-sized, and bulky.

[Guest makhamboy]

i am from markham and did receive an acceptance from u of t. all letters are regular mail, so dont worry about what news is coming. the envelope is NOT brown, it is a regular white envelope like the ones the interview letters came in.

 

Im sure you will be fine. I am declining U of T for U of O or UWO (????) so there is another spot open.

 

Best of luck, but im sure you will be fine (markham does give rise to world leaders you know )

 

Cheers,

[Guest melissa]

I'm a Quebec/Ontari resident finishing a Biochem degree at Queen's.

 

I was accepted by U of T. This is my second time applying to this school.

 

I also got accepted at McGill and UWO. I was rejected with an interview at Queen's and without an interview at McMaster. Queen's would have been my number one choice, but I will accept U of T.

 

I think McGill used to be the best Canadian school, but the treatment and funding of English institutions by the local government truly scares me. If it was not for them, McGill would have been U of T/ Harvard of Canada. I remember when my parents immigrated to Montreal, I had to move to Ontario so that I could go to an English-based school (immigrants' children have to go to French schools?!). U of T seems to have it all: history, academics, as well as future - worth every penny.
