Guest wAcKo Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 but i thought they start moving ppl off waitlist starting next week? sorry quite confused here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NeuroObsessed Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Wacko, I believe Aneliz is saying that they start CALLING in July so that they can start moving the waitlist faster (as in, if somebody has already accepted a spot elsewhere, they can just say that on the phone and then UWO can move onto the next person on the waitlist). This probably means that as of next week, once the first round acceptance responses come in, they will most likely be sending e-mail acceptances! Hopefully we get some good news!

Guest doctags Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 I thought that the letter implied that they would be calling because they were very definite that they nedded an accurate phone # or was that in prep for July last minute calls!! I guess time will tell..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aneliz Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 The waitlist will definitely move before July... however, they usually do not start calling before sending out an offer until July. So, people that get offers in June generally just get an email or a snail mail acceptance similar to the people that received offers in the first round. And those that get offers later in the summer get a call first to see if they are still interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest doctags Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 DOes that mean later today or sometime this week......Where did you get this info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chewb83 Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 i emailed uwo admissions and asked when would people on wait list be contacted. i'm hesitant to follow up with an email demanding a thorough evaluation of the word "shortly". So, in the mean time, I wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest doctags Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Thanks I hear you.. Did you email any other schools or only UWO.?? It was nice of them to reply so quickly...was it today that you emailed them?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chewb83 Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 i emailed friday after 5, so they replied today at 10 am. i only emailed uwo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aneliz Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 I would guess that the waitlist will likely start moving later this week... but I wouldn't bug them to define 'shortly'. You would be pushing your luck at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NeuroObsessed Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Considering the lack of posts, I'm guesssing there has been no movement on the waitlist. We're all still in waitlist purgatory... Good luck everybody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chewb83 Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 your post raised my hopes of movement, and dashed them thoroughly when i actually read it. waiting sucks indeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jonascarter Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Yeah, I guess you are righ, Neuro. Judging from the other Ontario schools' forums, it seems that no offers have been made yet. The wait continues..... Good luck everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NeuroObsessed Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Sorry chewb83... I guess we're all in that place right now, where every little thing results in an anxiety attack... the lack of work in our lab isn't helping... I'm sure that as soon as there is movement, someone will post! In the meanwhile, I guess we just wait, wait, and wait some more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chewb83 Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 i don't mean to be the bearer of bad news, but i just read in the mac forum that one guy got off the waitlist. so either western is slow on their part or the people in this forum, including me are all far from the top of the uwo waitlist. I certainly hope the former is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mcpherv Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Yeah, the former would be a lot better than the latter - in fact, thatd be great, as people ahead of us all waiting and posting might be taken by other schools first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NeuroObsessed Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 wow... every new post in this thread is giving me a heart attack because I'm expecting someone to say... "I got the magic call/e-mail"... but nothing still! Yeah, chewb83... I certainly hope that Western's just taking longer to process and it's not that all of us are really low on the waitlist... happy waiting everybody!

Guest jonascarter Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Chewb, what makes you say that? Is it just speculation, or do you have any evidence? (You got me worried now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WesternHpfl10 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I called the admission office this morning around 9:30 and was told that Western has not made any new offers. Once again, good luck to all of you out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
