hiebs13 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Hey everyone. Just to let all of you waitlisters know. I recieved an e-mail about 5 min ago offering me a spot to my first choice site. I was given an offer to my second choice on June 13th. So there will be IP movement of at least one space. I'll try to make a decision asap so someone will hear good news soon! Hang in there!!

hiebs13 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Hi Dott, As I said, I was offered my first choice (june 26) following receiving an offer for my second choice (June 13). I had until today to make a choice. So there will definitely be one IP offer going out sometime after today. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dott Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I have a feeling that the rejections are going to arrive starting next week. Brace yourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlatan Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Well, past rumor has it that occassionally one or two student get accepted on the day before the first day of class. Such is the case for Dan the Tutor at UBC. And no, I did not see their acceptance letters with my own eyeballs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaka84 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 It is possible to get accepted a few days before classes start. There were two people who gained admission on the friday before orientation last year. the shaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biochemnerd Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 i remember I got mine off waitlist on July 15 last year. It relieved my mind and allowed me to plan my year accordingly. ________ TreneSexy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moltenflammingcore Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Hey I just wanted to write a little note of solidarity to you all. Last year I was on a waitlist for Queens (I didn't even get an interview for UBC) and it was so, so painful!!!!!!! And then I never got it. I really feel for you guys but it means you are totally on the right track right? I bet it was only a difference of a single point or so on the interview or something like that. So good luck! And I'm sure you'll all make it eventually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastwest Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 With respect to getting in just days before classes begin... does anyone know what the options are if you are living out of the country? And not able to move to Vancouver in just a couple of days? Would a deferal be possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dott Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 Sorry eastwest, I don't know the answer to your question. In other news, I heard from a friend that one of his acquaintances received a rejection off the waitlist via mail on July 11th. Now, I know this sounds questionable since this is not primary source material, but news is news is news. What I'm wondering is, was it via snail mail or email? Did his/her online status not change prior to receipt of the purported snail mail? Oh, the life and times and joie de vivre of a UBC waitlister...

Oh, the life and times and joie de vivre of a UBC waitlister... i would like to think they only sent these to the people who definitely had NO chance. my status has not changed and i haven't received any snail mail rejection as far as i know (out of the country right now). maybe there is still a bit of hope.

little rock Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 I just spam called the admissions office again and they said that no rejections had been sent out yet. They also said to hang tight until the end of July and that they couldn't tell me anymore information. Edited to add: This is nuts! It's already July 19th. Still no final word.

Biochemnerd Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Anyone know what's the chance of getting in from the waitlist aftert this wave of rejections? Maybe I should call the adm office to see how many people are still on the watilitst? ________ CumForMature cam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liz001 Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 can someone explain to me how it is fair that applicants who got rejected pre-interview received a breakdown of their NAQ scores, while people who got rejected off the waitlist only received overall file scores????? ubc is so full of crap.
