neuronix Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 So today is the 17th. Which means that they might start looking at the grad packages tomorrow. Does anyone have a clue when they'll start notifying us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkmedbound Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I believe the email said they will notify us next week... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkmedbound Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Yikes! I have a feeling we'll hear next week tho... good luck to you! Where are you doing your masters or PhD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry-mon Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Last year the deadline was Feb 15th, and I got invitation on Feb 25th for interview on March 29th. So relax, there's a good wait to be had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoingCrazy Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'm waiting patiently!!! Hopefully some good news will come our way next week! Good luck to all of us grad students. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sv3 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 for a grad student? I don't think I qualify anyway as I did a one year MBA and it seems Ottawa doesn't like the one year programs. ah well...... thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkmedbound Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Its hard to say... I know 1 year anatomy students who have sent in a grad package... I think any masters really looks good, and give you something 'different' from the lot of undergrad applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoingCrazy Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 So will it be tomorrow.. tuesday, or maybe even friday??? The wait is killing me! Ottawa is my only hope and i'm a nervous wreck! Deep breaths. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkmedbound Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 I hear ya... It may be a looong week if they don't get their act together before friday. hope its earlier tho. fingers crossed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnDakota Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 ^ From what I've read all the interviews are going to be done in March this year. We'll probably be offered interviews aroudn the same time as last year's interviews. I had mine March 29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuronix Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Alright, I say we all pool in $5 each and ask one of the med students (Jerry-Mon, Raed) to march in to the admissions office and ask when they'll be sending the bloody invites out. Everybody wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoingCrazy Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I second that Neuronix! I keep refreshing my inbox thinking that at any moment there could be an invite from UofO....i'm a nervous wreck these days with so many other things to worry about but with only this dreaded invite on my mind! My heart skipped a beat when I saw a new post on this thread. I though maybe just maybe someone heard some news. AHHHHHHH! I will continue screaming inside until the email arrives (or doesn't ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get an interview you're going to be stressing out for another 6 weeks afterwards, and then if you're waitlisted you could be stressing out until the end of august. You cant let this medschool waiting game run your life. There's more to life than medschool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody wins. I'm glad to see how this has finally resulted in monetary bribes. You should expect results this week. Obviously the time to associate the results from the adcom with interview slots and then finally with email notices could take longer... I accept cash, VISA, or western union money orders.

neuronix Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 maybe 5 bucks will refresh my memory... no..wait...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoingCrazy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Any news Raed or Jerry-mon? I'm assuming emails will only be sent out Friday at 5 pm.. but deep inside I am still hoping we hear earlier. If there are any charges for your services please put them on my tab.

GoingCrazy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 OMG! So Ottawa just called or emailed (i dunno) my supervisor to confirm that I will be done my masters on time! Good news? Bad news? Eeeeek! They are definitely reviewing them now... and hopefully sending invites SOON! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Dang, my supervisor/prof is away at a conference the rest of the week! I hope they are sending by email, if anyone else can confirm that, it'd put my mind at ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoingCrazy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 So.. my supervisor emailed me asking for some info for ottawa and although there was no forwarded message in his email, the title was Re: Info-My Last Name... suggesting that they emailed him. So don't fret.. all is good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuronix Posted February 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 why would they ask that again? Did your supervisor make it clear that you'll be done your masters in time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Yah, I'm wondering if I freaked out for no reason, maybe you're just an isolated case. Either way, can you believe that I didn't even sneak in a little "when will the notices be out?" when I called to let them know my supervisor is away? Sorry guys.... I just didn't have the guts to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoingCrazy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Maybe I am an isolated case... hrmmmm.. however, I know for a FACT that my supervisor wrote that I will be finished on time (by June 1st - their request). I don't know why they contacted him. It is rather strange...duh duh duh.. all we can do is continue to wait... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnDakota Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 hah.. that's funny. I wonder why they would contact the proff if he/she had specifically said you would be finished. I hope they don't contact mine, as he's stated in the OMSAS letter, as well as the supplemental package letter that I'm FINISHED, and if that's not enough proof my transcript will also show that.. heh =P My supervisor would probably ask; " ummm.. Can you read?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
