glboy2000 Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hey everyone! Do we have any idea a) how many people were offered admission to UWO and how many people are on the waitlist? My friend just got waitlisted. I've heard about 52 get offered admission. I figure another 28 would be on the wait list. Just my opinion. PLEASE CORRECT ME! Thanks and GOOD LUCK!

AllSmiles Posted June 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I called Trish yesterday and she said that 52 offers were made but she wouldn't say anything at all about the wait list....nothing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koft Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 no we interviewed approximately 200 students this past April. only 52 is being offered (i thought it would be 55), i am guessing that the waitlist will at least be 50 - 70 long (not official, my estimate), you don't want to be burnt by ppl dropping out at the last moment. My class had that happened, first week of class, one of my classmate got off the waitlist in meds school somewhere in Ontario. UWO had to go thru a waitlist like crazy to find a sub.! ________ Vaporgenie vaporizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllSmiles Posted June 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hmmm....that would be a hellish wait list.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glboy2000 Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I'm shocked that the waitlist could have 50-70 people. I would have figured it would be maybe two dozen tops. I just don't see the schools interest in shortlisting THAT MANY people. Hell, even if they put 52 on the admissions list and 52 on the wait list, it seems to be ridiculous to think that potentially your entire admissions list would refuse. Any other estimates of the wait list size??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllSmiles Posted June 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Well I asked Trish how long it is this year and she said she couldn't say...but i'm waiting on hearing from her what it was like in the past...so we'll see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwayner Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hey there, UBC I believe offers 40 spots and has close to 40 waitlisters as well. So all things being equal there should be about 52 spots in the waitlist at UWO. I assume since UWO offers admissions near the end they would have less movement however. UBC has moved about 15 spots already... D1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wishywish82 Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 UWO won't have a waitlist of 52 places, UBC only does that b/c they accept people so early and so many people want to go else where. Dal has 36 seats and a waitlist of like 6 so your logic can't be applied from school to school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adversary Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 The other thing is I found out that my colleagues actually canceled their interview offers from the Eastern Dental schools once they were accepted at UBC. Hence, that further contributes to the stark contrast in movement on the waitlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
