Exia Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 I'm a little confused as to what i should be doing for my acceptance. I am going to submitting my package (the letter, security check, money etc) this week, but I heard that the UofA automatically declines you if you accepted another school? Is it a problem if I keep myself on the waitlists at the other schools I applied to (waitlisted at Queen's/Calgary) until I finish up and confirm everything at UofA? or am I expected to move myself off the lists right away? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wut? Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Is it a problem if I keep myself on the waitlists at the other schools I applied to (waitlisted at Queen's/Calgary) until I finish up and confirm everything at UofA? or am I expected to move myself off the lists right away? Thanks!! Not a problem, but let the admissions office know as soon as possible regarding your final decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senorita~M Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Does anyone know if the admissions office will be sending a confirmation letter/email when they have received our deposit?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senorita~M Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Thanks for the response!! I'm guessing a confirmation email is in the works, since I sent in the deposit last friday!! Will call if I don't hear anything!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kines. Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 I handed mine in to the office in person and the admissions person told me that I won't get anything else until mid-July regarding Orientation week and vaccinations and such....But I expected to receive SOMETHING along the lines of "confirmation we received your deposit" either in the mail or email...guess we'll wait and see.

hello:) Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Will they be sending more confirmation emails today? I don't want to worry about it over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenzle Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 there are no set guidelines...just call and ask if everything is good to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rpuff Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 I express posted my package on Wednesday and called today since there had been no confirmation. They've gotten a huge influx of them so working through it slowly, but they said if they don't hear from you they'll call you before doing anything. Guess it's true that once you're in they do want to keep you. So everyone relax! haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kines. Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 I went in person today to confirm, and yes, like rpuff said they have *stacks* of files for every accepted individual and they basically have to go through each one, double check the documents and then confirm you're good to go...mine happened to be next on her pile so I asked for some verbal confirmation, haha. I also received an email today as well... So if you haven't heard yet, just phone and tell them you're making sure they've received it all and supposing you passed your criminal record check you're all but good to go.

Ninjaface Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Yes, I believe most of us are in that situation. I am anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jochi1543 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I sent in all my paperwork with the exception of criminal record check 1.5 weeks ago (Friday), and mailed my criminal record check yesterday morning, so it should have reached them this morning...no word yet.

Guest rpuff Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Express posted my stuff last Wednesday from Calgary, no word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senorita~M Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I xpress posted my stuff (except for the criminal record check, still waiting to receive that in the mail) from Calgary and it arrived two Fridays ago. I called yesterday since I was wondering when the confirmation email would be coming - as another poster mentioned, they are working through a bunch of acceptances, so don't fret, the email is coming. I was told that if anything was missing (etc.) they will call you!! So essentially don't worry they aren't giving away your spot to anyone else!!

Version 2 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I still haven't my package yet Though, I only got off the waitlist a few days ago, so that's probably okay. I've got till the 15th to get that in, but it's amazing how fast that goes by.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watts Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Sounds like it! Do you know when your stuff got to their office? Just trying to ballpark how much longer I shoud be waiting. I brought mine in on the Wednesday (the 19th), minus my record check which was in on the Monday (the 25th), and still have not gotten an email yet. They did credit my deposit though.

tooty Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I brought mine in on the Wednesday (the 19th), minus my record check which was in on the Monday (the 25th), and still have not gotten an email yet. They did credit my deposit though. Email received at 2:35pm tooty: We have received your confirmation of admission, deposit, and your criminal record check. You have met the condition of our offer and your file is now complete. An orientation package will be sent to you over the summer. Diane Baker They received my package last Wednesday and I also sent in my official transcripts last week, but I requested that they not cash in my cheque until this past Monday.
