guys, my Minerva status changed to "accepted with condition". what kinda conditions?!:confused:

 

Don't quote me on this, but I think I remember reading that you need to finish off this term and pass what you need in order to get your bachelor's degree. I think it was written on the acceptance letter, which I received about 2 weeks later.

I also graduated 2 years ago!

 

I guess for both of us the school conditions have been met!

 

As for other conditions, your immunizations need to be up to date and you need to be tested for certain blood-borne diseases.

 

Since I got accepted, I've underwent a battery of blood tests. Thankfully everything is fine.

I knew someone who was refused into UofT dentistry because of their

Hep B status, but your Hep B status can change. Anyway, your family physician should be testing your

Hep B antibody level as part of your annual checkup so I wouldn't worry too much about this.

 

You can't have any communicable form of TB, but your status can change.

For Hep B, you must be reactive for the antibodies (generally shows immunity) or test negative

for the Hep B antigen (generally the former case results in the latter). I got both done just to be safe.

You can't be infected with Hep C.

You can't be infected with HIV.

Does anybody know how many IP waiting list moves usually. and how do they rank the waiting list???

 

last year it moved 3 spots, and I think the year before it 2. if you call patricia she'll tell you where you are on the waiting list. and I think the ranking is done automatically, the same way the ranked everyone who got accepted. good luck:)
