sv3 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Hi, I know its early to post this but was just curious about how much the waitlist moves at UA. I've heard different things and figure that has to do with the differences between IP and OOP. Is it fair to say that the IP waitlist doesn't move much while the OOP waitlist really trucks? I know some schools in other provinces have waitlists that really move a ton but I haven't heard of that from either Alberta school. thanks sv3 PS (searched for this last year and couldnt' find much and before that, class sizes were different) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuck62 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Does anyone know what the time period is that you have to accept/refuse a spot at the U of A (and U of C) once the offers first start going out? I had thought that ALL schools were two weeks, but apparently UBC is only 4 days...woah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC5 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 I know some schools in other provinces have waitlists that really move a ton but I haven't heard of that from either Alberta school. Pretty sure I remember reading a post on these very forums that claimed anyone who made the Calgary waitlist OOP was pretty much in. Of course, the seat reduction would drastically change that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatonekid Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Based on the OOP interview stats (especially the 3.98 average GPA), I would think that the waitlist would move a lot since people with those stats are likely getting in at their IP schools or other OOP schools. I don't know about IP waitlist movement though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardiomegaly Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 You have till June 1st for people who were accepted ob May 15th. U of A waitlist is smaller and it does move. U of C and U of A pull off the same pool of applicants so expect movement however U of C will waitlist an exorbitant amount of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
