Guest MC Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 I'm an Alberta resident who got a call this morning as well. They left a message on my machine. She said letters are all being sent this afternoon. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EB Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 monkey, do you have an answering machine or voice mail that you can call to see if there's a message waiting for you from Marlene? since phone calls are being made, maybe you could drop by the admission office this afternoon and find out in person... are you working in a lab on campus? well, today doesn't look like it's going to be very productive... i have yet to start an experiment, so i'm thinking i'll just head down to the powerplant and begin my celebrations :evil i noticed in one of the other forums (Queens, I think), that students who've been accepted are posting little autobio sketches of themselves... maybe we could try that here? in a class of 125, it may be a little difficult to take a guess at who "monkey", "shkelo" and "tommygirl" are :b EB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest monkey Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 hey i'm from calgary so it wont work for me to drop by the admin office. and i dont wnat to call them...they are busy as is. I would do what you're saying about the ans. machine, except i forget what the code is. arrrgh!!! just when i need it the most i go and forget it! so i am really hoping i have a call sitting at home. its just 3 hrs wait...u'd think after having an acceptance in one hand it'd be easier to deal with this...

Guest Puppy Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 I also received a phone call this morning (in Calgary) to let me know of my acceptance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EB Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 monkey, if you're worrying about the u of a acceptance, maybe that means that deep down, you'd rather be there than UWO... when I originally got my acceptance to U of C, all my worries about the U of A were gone... simply couldn't of cared if I was accepted or not... it truly was my first choice... after the bad news came is when i started stressing the u of a... basically, what i'm saying is that if the UWO/UofS acceptances haven't satisfied you, maybe you really would prefer to be at UofA...

Guest monkey Posted June 28, 2002 Report Share Posted June 28, 2002 EB, i dont think its the "lack of satisfaction" that is making me worry about UA. i think i'm anxious to know since this is the last school to hear back from. I'm getting an MD one way or the other. THAT is what i was and am focused on. Plus, i dont know about you, but I'm always anxious for other news, even if i've already gotten the best news in the world in your pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BC guy Posted June 29, 2002 Report Share Posted June 29, 2002 Yes, I am from BC so it is something special to be 1 of the 15 OOP acceptances. However, I have to think it over as the Ontario schools might be better for me in the long run. Had been asking around again re the Ontario vs UA....did not get too much new info except for the fact that the docs that I talked to do not think much of the upcoming UBC med school changes (this did not help the decision making at all!) Some of the docs just do not like to live in Edmonton it seems, which of course has nothing to do with the med school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DN Posted June 29, 2002 Report Share Posted June 29, 2002 Which Ontario school are you considering vs. U of A, BC guy? Good luck with whatever you decide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
