hmm that's interesting. I currently attend UofT and applied to OT at UofT too. I got the campus preference email to my UofT email, which is the same as my ORPAS email.

Just to clear my confusion, what do you mean by "it might mean something?" 

Yeah! Apparently UofT rehab programs (OT, PT and speech) tend to enrol their students a bit early; my friend saw she was "Invited" to SLP on her ACORN (UofT portal) account a few days before actual offers came out. Since that shows that the school begins setting up prospective students in their system before the acceptance date, she was wondering if her UofT email was being used because she was already being set up in the UofT system as an accepted student. 

It does seem a bit odd that they would use the email she hadn't listed on her application, especially to send an offer of admission! But it's all speculation. if there is a current uoft undergrad who has their personal email on ORPAS, and received communications to their personal email only (despite other Uoft undergrads receiving it to their UofT emails) then I would be more curious about it. In reality, it could just mean that they pre-separate all the current UofT students from the start of the application process, in which case all UofT undergrads would receive communications on their campus emails.

In previous application cycles, some applicants have also received notification on UCorn for the PT program as well; ahead of the results!

Has anyone received CAP instructions (for UofT PT) to login Quercus? I think we are supposed to receive it today!

I think people have been receiving their CAP invites. for uoft, but I didn't apply to uoft so idk the process. As for queens, there is no interview. selection will be based off gpa, resume, statement of intent and references. You should hear back from queens in may! good luck

Ohhh I see. Thank you so much!!

For UofT, I’ve emailed and received an automatic response that they’re away until Monday, April 8th!

Has anyone got the information to sign-in to Quercus for UofT PT CAP 2024??

[Davidzeept]

I just got an email from UofT this morning saying that the Quercus email is delayed and we should receive instructions on the 8th

Wondering if anyone is on the wait list for OT at UBC yet or has gotten formally rejected? Just wondering about timelines as a prospective student for waitlists just in case...

I see! I never heard this before, so good to know. I will now be checking my ACORN more often in case!!

I was notified of my position on the waitlist around the same time other people were talking about getting accepted. I feel like you should’ve heard one way or the other by now, but I can only really speak to when I personally heard back.

I'm on the waitlist for UBC OT and was wondering as well if anyone who got an offer has rejected it. Feeling so restless waiting 

Congrats to all those who got in and are accepting!

[physiowannabe123]

Apparently some UBC PT rejections were sent out yesterday? Does this indicate the rest should hear back soon? I thought UBC always sends all acceptances and rejections at the same time

I’m feeling the same way! I’m on the out of province waitlist so I’m trying not to get my hopes up, but I expect there will be more movement on the list in May when other schools start sending out acceptances.

They should come around the same time. Are you sure rejections went out yesterday? 

[UBCPT2024]

Ya, results usually come out around the same time, could you confirm if that's true?

Hey! I got a conditional acceptance to Dal OT this morning! I'm an in province student, wondering if anyone has any insights as to when final acceptance should be expected for the school of graduate studies/registrar? I assume it will be once my final transcript is sent in?

can't confirm as it was heard through the grapevine. best to assume it wasn't true

[trishOT]

Waitlisted at Dalhousie for OT!

Has anyone experienced getting off the waiting list closer to September? Just thinking ahead in terms of finding a place at short notice as I am out of province. 

[OT Queen]

Waitlisted for Dal OT! Congrats to those who were accepted and fingers crossed for those of us who were waitlisted!

Congrats!!! Do you mind sharing your GPA on your last 60 credits? I was waitlisted and I am wondering how close I am haha.

I don't know my SubGPA according to DAL but my ORPAS my sGPA was 3.68! I had extremely strong references (Dal Alum/Dean of my program) and a strong personal statement so i think that and the fact that I'm in province helped a lot! Best of luck!!:)

I was just waitlisted for Dal OT this morning. Does anyone know the likelihood of being accepted from the waitlist? I am currently out of province but completed my undergrad in Nova Scotia

Not sure if this helps but my understanding is that it really depends. You could be next up on the waitlist or you could be near the end. It looks like in past years some people have been accepted a week after getting put on the waitlist and a few people get accepted as close to a few days before classes start. So we will only know forsure that we didn't get in once classes start. I have no idea how long the waitlist for Dal OT is.
