Imreadytogethurtagain Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 Interviews just past but based on how early offers were sent out last year, I am on edge this month... Anyone else feel like they're going to drop it on us early again this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do feel like they will notify us earlier than the beginning of May (or at least I hope so!) - they sent out invite invitations earlier than expected this year too. Hopefully this rollercoaster ride is coming to an end soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heme Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 I am actually having nightmares about my interview now. The closer it gets to May, the worse my sleep! What are you guys and gals doing to distract yourselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imreadytogethurtagain Posted April 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 Since last year's offers were sent out on Friday, April 20th, my money is on Friday, April 26th this year since the Friday before is Easter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATG4B Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Has anyone heard whether they will come out this week? Patiently waiting .... NOT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avotoast Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Based on the trends in the last two years, I think they will come out on a Tuesday since we got our interview invites on a Tuesday. So if not April 23, April 30 will likely be the date that the offers are sent out. Or May 7th... ATG4B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or what if they come out today? I don’t think university offices are closed on Easter Monday... only Good Friday is a STAT holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MountainAmoeba Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 I think they will send them out when they are done and they have finalized the lists. I don’t think they wait for a “Tuesday” because it’s Tuesday. ThatCanadianGuy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottermum Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 Every time I get an email notification it's an emotional roller-coaster, first anxiety and then disappointment when it isn't Calgary... but then also glad it isn't in case it is bad news.

caspase-3 Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 They posted an update on their website under the 'important notices' tab saying that decisions will be released in early May. https://www.ucalgary.ca/mdprogram/admissions ATG4B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed them without seeing that If you get any new information please post it here. I still wonder if early May actually means early May, or could be any day now. Last year Dr. Walker had posted at the end of March on his blog that he expected offers would be sent out before the end of the first week of May. They ended up being sent on April 20th.

ATG4B Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 I know the whole thing is a bit of a mystery ... I wish they would just give us a date like other schools do ... If I find out anything, for sure I will post it here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdy21 Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Nobody will find out when offers will be sent out until they are actually sent out. I repeat- nobody. Unless you are on the admissions committee, there is no way to know - and nobody from the admissions committee will tell you. I don't think there is any special day that they decide, I really think it just happens when they've made the final decision and are ready to contact applicants. It sucks but that's just how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMislove Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Treat this like a real life exercise. Every job offer I was waiting for in my career, it would be like "Sometime in the next two weeks". Okay cool, but what if I get another offer from that other interview next week and nothing from them, hard to get a full week of extension to accept (only reason to do that is if you're waiting for something better) and can sour a relationship before it's even started. With that in mind, good luck to y'all. I know the waiting sucks, but that's how it works as @psychsohard has mentioned. Enjoy life as much as you can in the meantime. birdy21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolo_marie Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 Just received an email saying that offers would be sent out no sooner than mid to late next week. Just about had a heart attack seeing the ucmedapp address! Occam, Bobaizlyfe and targaryen 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 Lol which one of you badgered them enough that they had to send out the email? But props to them, I appreciate the information. So sick of waiting though. i8aSS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But props to them, I appreciate the information. So sick of waiting though. Agreed! I think it’s also worse because offers came out early last year, so everyone was secretly hoping for the same this year. I have a feeling they may be trying to time it closer with UBC and the Ontario schools so that they can give a quicker acceptance deadline and try to move the waitlist faster, since classes do start at the beginning of July.

yyc Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 I am glad they sent the email out. It would be nice if it was like other schools where you knew far in advance that it will be a specific date. Calgary has had admissions offers sent out between April 20 and May 15 over the last decade. That’s quite the range, so I think it’s understandable that people get anxious waiting and wondering. Fingers crossed they do come out next week. The wording of the email makes it sound like it may actually be later then that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heme Posted May 2, 2019 Report Share Posted May 2, 2019 We have to consider that they interviewed more applicants this year and interviews were later than in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
