Premed12345 6 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 I'm OOP and waitlisted (3rd quartile). I won't reject an offer unless I get off the U of A waitlist. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littleappythatcould 7 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 Hi everyone! Congrats on getting this far. Just wondering how long accepted offers have to confirm with the College that they are in fact accepting. Anyone know? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CoffeeandMedicine 15 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 I'm IP waitlist, first quartile... not sure if I should expect to get in or not but I'm very hopeful. I will NOT be rejecting my offer if I get one Congrats to everyone accepted!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tallshirts 36 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 I am wracking my brain trying to figure out if 4th quartile is the top or if 1st is. My cursory look at wikipedia makes me think that 4th is the top of the ranking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

zoxy 203 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 1st is top of the ranking and fourth is at the bottom. My OOP clearly states so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tallshirts 36 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 Ah yes, I see that reference to "starting with the first quartile" in my IP email as well. What a rollercoaster. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BobSmith777 3 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 @zoxy what quartile were you if you don't mind me asking? I'm OOP waitlisted, in the third quartile Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littleappythatcould 7 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 In province also waitlisted 1st quartile. Rollercoaster indeed! trying to see how much Waitlist moved last few years but not really getting a clear picture... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kylo Renin 7 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 I’m out of province, 4th quartile unfortunately. Not holding my breath aha, oh well zoxy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tallshirts 36 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 FWIW, I was waitlisted last year (they didn't say rank), and I wasn't notified until July 31. They had apparently been contacting people at the bottom of the list (indicating rejection) well before that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CoffeeandMedicine 15 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 Just now, littleappythatcould said: In province also waitlisted 1st quartile. Rollercoaster indeed! trying to see how much Waitlist moved last few years but not really getting a clear picture... I know a couple of IP applicants who got in off the wait list in mid-June in the past couple of years but I also don't have a clear picture. Regardless, I'm sure we won't see much, if any, movement until after the deadline to accept for the first round of offers. Such an emotional rollercoaster Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zoxy 203 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) I posted this in the other thread as well but I thought I'd post it here as well. My OOP 3rd quartile email says that due to the uncertainty I should make alternative plans. Does the OOP 2nd quartile wait list email say the same thing? Edit: Was answered in the other thread.

Cactus93 2 Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 Did they tell you how many they put on your waitlist? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
