OTAPPLICANT026 Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 Just wondering if anyone is heading to GCU for OT/PT? Thought it would be a good idea to have a place to ask questions and discuss the process of moving from Canada to the UK! OTdokie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be going to GCU if I don't get in anywhere on May 17th. Were you given an unconditional offer? I was given a conditional offer, so I have to complete the Negotiated Learning Module.

I will be going if not accepted in May as well! I have a conditional offer too but I don't have to complete the learning module! They are just waiting on my grades from winter semester!

PTPT2020 Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Hello, I was accepted to the Physiotherapy MSC program starting in January 2020 and just sent my confirmation to attend yesterday. Are there any other Canadians that will be going next year? I am from the Toronto area and not sure if I want to live in residence or get an apartment.

PThopeful18 Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 I sent in an application for PT on the 2nd of april, got confirmation on the 4th but have yet to hear back, my cGPA is 3.5ish, while my sub-GPA is 3.85 How did it take you all to hear from them?

PTPT2020 Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 I applied at the beginning of March and had an interview roughly 4 weeks later. I received an unconditional offer two weeks ago. Is GCU your #1 choice abroad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking into the student housing, but most won't know about availability for January until after the semester starts in September Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since there are no application fees abroad, I decided to apply pretty broadly in the UK: Birmingham, Robert Gordon, Glasgow Caledonian, Brighton, East Anglia, Brunel, and Southampton U...all for MSc Hopefully though i get into Western or Queen's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTPT2020 Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 I have a 3.6 GPA and decided on GCU because a lot of Canadians are accepted into the Physiotherapy MSC program. Plus the reviews from recent graduates are very positive. I am also looking forward to living in Glasgow for a couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh good to know, if I do get an invite, would it be cool if ask you about how the interview went? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTPT2020 Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Sorry I took so long to get back to you. Interview was roughly 30-40 minutes and fairly laid back. Asked the standard questions, why do you want to be a Physiotherapist. Volunteer/work experience. Why do you want to attend GCU etc. Nothing out of the ordinary.

PThopeful18 Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 2 weeks as of today from my interview, I haven't heard back yet but on the portal, it says confirmed now instead of Applied. Would i be looking too much into that to be drawing a conclusion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would i be looking too much into that to be drawing a conclusion? Firstly, thank you to OP for creating this thread! I recieved an unconditional offer to GCU for Jan 2020 and am excited to hear from and meet other Canadian students potentially considering the program. @PThopeful18 I'm not sure if this is any help as I don't recall having access to a portal to see the status of my application, but I heard the results of my interview via email exactly 1 week afterwards! The lady I interviewed with had also told me that if I didn't hear back approximately one week after, that I could contact the admissions office to find out the status of my application. I interviewed back in March though so i'm not sure if the admissions office is swamped during this time and just operating a bit slower. Fingers crossed for you!
