Also, I applied to another masters program as a backup if I didn't get into OT, and the same invited prompt showcased on acorn for me three days prior to my actual admittance email.

My overall is 3.93 and sgpa 3.92 But, this is my second time applying and last year I didn't even get past casper, even with the same gpa. I believe that this last year has helped me grow a lot, do some introspection on what I want and, in turn, how to get there. I read books (highly recommend Growth mindset by Dweck), got a job as a personal trainer, and volunteered at 2 hospitals. So, even though gpa is important, it only opens the door.

ptmandem Posted May 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Just to confirm for PT in Ontario, will we find out about decisions on May 29th at midnight (12:00am)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pls_OT_12 Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Hey guys, Also a recent graduate from UofT. I haven't seen any update on my Acorn yet! Sometimes Acorn can be glitchy, so don't worry yet if you haven't seen any 'invites'. We won't officially know until Friday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OT-InTheMaking-2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 Haven't really looked at past forums (relating to early acceptances) but are all accepted applicants shown an early invite on ACORN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just activated by account using JOINid information UofT sent me 6 years ago. All it tells me is "You are not currently enrolled in any programs." Did you (or anyone else) receive anything when you logged in? Not sure if I am looking in the right account or place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just asked ORPAS, I applied for OT, but they said it really depends on when the schools send in their offer files - they can start appearing as early as midnight but continue to appear throughout the day - so I guess any time on the 29th!

Hey, when I was activating my account I remember it asked for my ORPAS number? So I’m assuming it’s the right account. But I also have that message on my account!

I tried activating my account from 5 years ago but for some reason it wont let me activate it. Did you apply for an undergraduate program back then?

I can tell you though that it's in the first page that comes up when you log in, the Dashboard, in the lower left part of the screen under Academics. It says Degree Registration Status and under that, PT 2020-2021 Invited Hope that helps. As some people said, if you don't see it, don't worry. We don't really know how they're updating these things.

Thank you! I see invited as well! Has anybody who received "invited" in the past not gotten in when official acceptances came out?

OT1996 Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 For all of the people who applied to Ontario OT schools have you decided which university you will attend if accepted on Friday? I applied to UofT, Queens, and McMaster and I was wondering what factors people take into account when making their decisions. Thanks!
