FRC Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Congratulations!!! This may be a silly question, but if we firmly accepted another offer, does this automatically take us off the U of Ottawa waitlist and all others we may be on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj_star2004 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 A firm acceptance eliminates waitlist or offers from all other schools in ontario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SummerWaitin Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Got the waitlist email at 8:51.J.P.87, she also left a message on the phone.......... Yes, I am going crazy right now... According to Mimi, she got a message & email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SummerWaitin Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 I confirmed with her twice that she is doing both streams. She's doing it manually one by one so it's a lengthy process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj_star2004 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Lol, I read that message earlier and it didnt stick. Good to know she will leave a message. I thought they would send out a wave of waitlist like they did on may 15th but a manual process would be lengthy. Might hear tomorrow or friday still. Well we have become good at waiting, what is a couple more sleepless nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbo Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 do you know for a fact the first round is done or is that just an assumption? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 lets hope that since they have been slow to react thus far that they are continuing to le slow. maybe she wants to pace herself. she probably has other things to do on top of calling ppl like us. so lets hope there are more to come tomorrow. at my short count there was only one from this forum from eng stream. hopefully that rate picks up too!

SummerWaitin Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Ok, let's say there's room for 30 ppl and she called the first 30 ppl today. Let's say only 10 of those ppl answered the call/email and accepted. The rest have to call her back and have x amount of days to accept. She can't continue going down the list until she gets a definite response (which may or may not incl deposit). But since many are on summer jobs/away, response time is slowed down again. I imagine that everything has to be recorded, which again slows down the process. When ppl call to ask questions, it takes time away, and she surely has other admin responsibilities (i.e. meetings, reports, etc) which also slows down the process. I hope this makes you feel better and not worse. But looking at it from her perspective helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay14 Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 so, I got an email and a call telling me to call chantal asap, but the office is now closed. just wondering, what others got in their emails? Was it specific to being next on the waiting list or did it just say to call her back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewyyy Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Do you know what your wGPA is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay14 Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 I think my wgpa was 3.91. I got the email at 2 pm, don't know what time they called my house or my disconnected cell phone number. I'm in the English stream. BUT, my pessimisstic side cannot accept that it was for waitlist since she just said to call her back and did not give any details. I guess i'll just have to cross my fingers and wait until tomorrow morning to speak to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howard Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Why only to 3.87 wgpa in the 3.7 interview cluster? Threre are people below 3.87 that may have gotten 3.7 on interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
