FF20 Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 I think the class is probably finalized, I wonder why they don't send us the rejections and why they are keeping us on the waitlist or at least shorten it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadpremed Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Does someone wanna email admissions and ask if/when Round 5 is going out and when the WL will be shortened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no email yet that the class is finalized (including to those that were admitted), so hopefully that’s not the case.

Fig Tree Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Hello. Did people get an email from ubc regarding transcripts yesterday? Was it addressed to all accepted/waitlisted applicants or just applicants who are have taken coursework this past year? I’m wondering if the fact that I did not receive that email means I have been cut from the waitlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I’m not sure if they were sending emails only to those that didn’t submit one or sending only to those that would remain on the waitlist.

I imagine they only sent an email to those who they haven't received a final transcript for. I didn't receive the email, so I checked my OAS and it says received for my final transcripts. It might have been an automated email sent to all those with status 'not received'? Probably nothing to read into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why this round has been delayed, last year they released it a day after the Round 4 acceptance/decline deadline passed. They’re definitely going to shorten the waitlist this round (based on previous year), so I wonder if that process is what’s taking longer.

premedsurr Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Super strange! They’ve been on top of it the past few application cycles so it’s odd that this cycle has been unpredictable. Anyone else feel like they forgot about us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgannn Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 Hello fellow hopeful waitlisters, I’m a bit late to this party as I am actually no longer on the waitlist. I received my offer for NMP on the 4th round on June 7, very unexpectedly!!! It is my first application cycle so I’m not sure where I ranked in everything. I did not have a super high gpa from undergrad (around 82%) but I am just finishing up a course based masters program with a 3.92 (maybe that helped?). I have been working for a while in academics as well as in health care and have pretty solid (in my opinion) volunteer experience as a firefighter- both structural and wildfire. My mcat score, the 4th time, was a 502, but I showed improvement each time which I’ve heard is something they look for. I honestly felt like I bombed the mmi…but felt a lot better about the northern/rural interview. Grades and mcat score are not the only things that matter! I have a little bit of guilt because I know there are so many deserving people who will make wonderful doctors still on the waitlist. Don’t give up! If it’s your dream, you’ll make it happen!

soccermed123 Posted July 15, 2022 Report Share Posted July 15, 2022 Accepted an offer today from Vancouver-Fraser! Feels surreal to be even writing this. I had been making plans for things to fill my gap year and had given up on this cycle so todays email came as quite a shock. Feeling incredibility lucky and privileged to be at this place. IP application (non-rural) first application cycle MCAT: 510 (129/125/127/129) GPA: kinesiology 90.8% NAQ: I felt that this was the strongest part of my application with lots of leadership and diverse experience. Message me for any questions about writing entries! Interview felt average but enjoyed the experience overall. Morgannn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SourdoughLover Posted July 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 Sigh... What is going on this year? Lol I just want to move on with my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadSchool Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 I asked UBC MD and this is their reply "Thank you for reaching out. We generally post regrets once the first week of classes has begun, in this case it would be late August." So I guess there is no waitlist shortening this year. Can't believe they just keep you wait this long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torrens Posted August 12, 2022 Report Share Posted August 12, 2022 Anyone here still on the waitlist lol Apparently classes start in about a week, so I'm not sure why they're still keeping some of us on the WL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
