kenzle Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 after my interview one of the deans had mentioned that the waiting list is usually around 35-40 people. not sure how true that is because at others schools i've heard the waitlists can be over 100.

tooty Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 one of the deans had mentioned that the waiting list is usually around 35-40 people. I remember that as well. It's a very encouraging number imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esca Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Has anyone heard of someoen who was stuck on the waitlist and then rejected for UofA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xone Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 hmm, I think so. They generally put more applicants on the waitlist than they end up using, so the remaining ones after the class fills up do get rejected. atleast that is my understanding of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooty Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 When are they going to make calls and emails now that they've received all the notices of acceptance? Do they call and email or do one before the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esca Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I think they'll do it Monday. Just a hunch :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazzy19 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 For those on the waitlist: I just declined my offer of admission from UofA so someone should be getting a call early next week with an offer! And the deadline they gave me to respond was Monday at 10AM, so I'd expect offers to start going out soon after that! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooty Posted May 31, 2008 Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 And the deadline they gave me to respond was Monday at 10AM, so I'd expect offers to start going out soon after that! Good luck! Which Monday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boodog Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 just curious, i guess the deadline for acceptance is tommorow then at 10AM? this probably means waiting till tuesday for emails then...i thought the acceptance deadline was the 29th? probably doesn't matter at this point, but can anybody confirm?

KristenD Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Yep I thought that May 29th was the deadline, thats what the forms said! Maybe they give a couple of days grace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tus Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hi, I haven't been posting much, but I think I will post now to help provide information as I received a lot of help from this forum. I just got off from the waitlist!! I received an e-mail from Marlene around 15:40pm MDT. I'm OOP 4th yr. the e-mail says that I need to reply documentation by June 16th, which is being sent by mail. I'm not sure what that mail contains tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcana Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Same here! Accepted from the OOP waitlist on Monday at 5:30 pm EST. It's been surreal. I am definitely going here unless I get off some other waitlists! Good luck to all those waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1arm Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 that is a good question... i'm oop, 'butt' i haven't heard of much movement for either ip or oop lists here at U of A or at UBC (am also waitlisted there)... this is brutal!... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccer_dude Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'm happy to say that the IP wait list is moving because I just got accepted today. I still can't really believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esca Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Congrats! 2/3 year list or 4th year list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1arm Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 congrats soccer dude. are you totally stoked for the Euro like i am? it starts tomorrow! i can't wait. HUP HOLLAND! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccer_dude Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Thanks. I am a 2nd year, so either some precocious 2nd/3rd year was accepted at many schools and gave up his/her spot, or there is one big waiting list. I am stoked for Euro also, but Forza Italia. That is going to be quite the group of death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SometingCrazy Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Hi. Does anyone have any idea approximately how many people get moved off of the waitlist at UofA each year? Maybe it's just me, but it seems like hardly any 4th IP students have moved off of the waitlist. (I actually have yet to hear of any 4th IP getting accepted from the waitlist at UofA.) 2/3rd year IP and OOP students are getting accepted, so the waitlist is moving...Is there one big waitlist or several waitlists seperated based on applicant pool (e.g. 2/3rd year IP, 4th year IP, OOP, etc.)? Any ideas on this are much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodOldDays Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 I doesn't sound like any IP 4th+ years have been accepted off the WL. My guess is the 2/3 year and OOP WL are smaller, so they are sending out acceptances off those first?? Maybe after they are all done with those list they will tackle the larger 4th year IP?
