My spot is 3, however on the out of province waitlist. I’m not sure how many spots total are taken my out of province students? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulia Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 Hi, i'm a BC resident and i'm second on the waitlist, so fingers crossed. I didn't realize there was a separate waitlist for out of province Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume they will contact us by email, but I guess it's possible for them to phone us since we provided phone #'s on our application. Could you please let me know when you hear something since you're one spot ahead of me? Good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FutureOT2023 Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 Hi everyone, i suspect the waitlist could start moving soon as UofA has released their first round of acceptances. Has anyone heard of any waitlist movement? I am #6 on the UBC waitlist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gigi for OT_21 Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 Greetings fellow hopefuls! Do we know how long UBC's waitlist (in-province) is?--that is, how many people are on the waitlist? I know U of A is 150 people, but I'm not sure if that includes Saskatchewan seats etc. At UBC Is there a separate list then for international students? a separate list for in-province, and a separate list for out of province?

Hi! I'm pretty sure that the waitlist for in province is 20 ppl, out of province is 5, and i'm assuming 5 for international?

What do you mean by the in province waitlist will be exhausted before the OOP waitlist begins? After speaking with David and to my understanding there are 2 separate wait lists and regardless, the program this year has 5 seats for OOP applicants.

After speaking with David and to my understanding there are 2 separate wait lists and regardless, the program this year has 5 seats for OOP applicants. I received this from David this morning: Due to some confusion surrounding the OOP waitlist that has been brought to our attention via email we've decided to provide additional information regarding the OOP waitlist situation. As you are not currently on the OOP waitlist I am providing you with this information as we believe the confusion may have stemmed from not expanding on the previous answer you were provided. Out of Province applicants can only be admitted if there are two conditions met. As our program can only accept up to 10% of our domestic seats as Out of Province (meaning 5 seats), they can only be offered admission if another OOP student declines their offer of admission. If they are next in line on the waitlist. What this means is that if no OOP students currently admitted declines their offer then we exhaust the regular waitlist first, which was the intention of my reply to your email. However, the two waitlists exist together and all OOP students are also assigned a regular waitlist number. As such I may have been in error by leading you to believe that the spots would be distributed in the order of 20 in-province then the remaining OOP. A more appropriate way of responding to your initial email is that the OOP waitlist does not take precedence over the regular waitlist, as in, an OOP waitlist candidate is not automatically admitted if an OOP student declines their offer. Hopefully this expanded answer helps clear up any questions you and other applicants may have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
