Maybe they are using these numbers to give an indication of where we are on the waiting list without disclosing the total number of people on the waitlist? I'm just confused why we were given a different list length Is this for u of a PT?? Weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTtobe1 Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Hi everyone. I am still deciding but am looking for clarification on when Western's OT offer needs a response. The letter states 5 business days (which would mean by end of business day Thursday - tomorrow they want an answer) but the ORPAS website says the offer is good until May 29th. I am wondering if any of you guys know when we need to respond by? I contacted the admissions at UWO a few days ago through email but no response, and they are not taking calls now. Thanks!

ilyPT Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 I read in last years forum that "it's common for waitlists to move 40 or so spots". Does anyone know if there is any truth to this??

It's possible that the waitlist was at 50 on the 7th, and then went down to 30 in just over a week later, but that would mean 20 ppl got off the waitlist in just over a week which is so many. If this is true, then it seems likely that another 20-30 ppl could get off the waitlist in the next couple to few weeks, which is almost everyone on the waitlist if it did start at 50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So another spot will open for Western and Queen's, and I will get off many other waitlists. If anyone started a McGill PT facebook page let me know! Are you in province for mcgill QY PT? I still haven't heard anything from them but I am OOP. Has anyone else OOP heard back either good or bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to being on the waitlist, should I accept UofT for now and then wait to hear back from Mac? What does this process look like? Curious to know why you're leaning towards Mac if you're open to sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance. Hi! I have. I got in this round for OT at UBC, Western and U of A. I don't recall UBC or Western saying on their websites that they show preference for students who take full course loads, but U of A definitely did so I'm surprised I got in. I never did 5 courses in one semester. I did 4 courses per sem during my first two years and then in third and fourth year I did 2-3 courses each sem. Hope that helps!

OTOT2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 Has anyone waitlisted for U of A OT been accepted? There's quite a bit of movement on the PT waitlist but I haven't heard of anyone receiving an acceptance off the OT waitlist yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
