windsor.hc Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 For those attending UWO for OT in the Fall: Search "UWO Masters in Occupational Therapy 2013 (MScOT)" I'd like to get to know you before September Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Physio Exam Academy Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Change your contact info on ORPAS. I've done that already. Im just not sure if they use the information which was originally given to ORPAS or if they access our information upon contacting us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mochaaddict Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Thanks a lot! Did they say if they are still acting on the waitlist? and if so which number they're at? I'm currently out of the country so calling is a little hard with the time difference so any information you might have would really be helpful! Hey I asked them where I was on the waitlist and the person didn't really tell me what my position was but told me he wasnt optimistic about me getting in. Also they're open to telling you as long as you give them your full name, ORPAS number and date of birth. Try first thing in the morning...if you dont get through directly to the admissions dept, call up reception and ask them to transfer you! Hope this helps!

mochaaddict Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Does anyone know whether your position on a waitlist stays active after your provisional acceptance becomes firm at another OT program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fskatergirl Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Does anyone know whether your position on a waitlist stays active after your provisional acceptance becomes firm at another OT program? You are removed from all waiting lists after acceptances become firm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaguar83 Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hey Guys, Does anyone know anything about the Mcmaster waitlist this year. Should I just give up on it? I'm 13th on the waitinglist. Jagz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSL13 Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Has anyone heard anything about the queens PT waitlist, if they are going to their wait-list this yr or when they typically begin contacting people? has anyone talked to them via email or phone? thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSL13 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 contacted U of T PT about their wait-list and they said : " At this point we are not making any offers to waitlisted students. This could theoretically change later in the summer, however it does not look likely at this point." Has anyone contacted Queens PT about their wait-list or heard of anyone getting in off of it yet?

Physio Exam Academy Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Has anyone heard back from Queen's after sending them an email about the waiting list? I sent one the other day and haven't heard anything back. Or has anyone been contacted to come off the list? G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cj21 Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Does anyone know the trend from previous years about when the last offers from waiting list are made? Do they ever send any in July or August? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaQ Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I thought I would post this for any future applicants Applied: Mac PT and OT Accepted: Mac PT Waitlisted: Mac OT (#4) - eventually got off the waitlist cGPA: 3.80 Interview: I was pretty relaxed. I think this is key with any interview. MMI is a great interview format. Even if you royally screw up a station there is always a chance to recover later on.

Scram Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Second this. Does anyone know or has anyone heard anything yet? I've been meaning to call but I haven't had a chance yet... My friend was placed 18th on the Queen's PT waitlist and was contacted in late June to be notified that she is now their #1. However, they are apparently not dipping into the waiting list anymore unless one of the students who have already accepted inexplicably drops out before classes begin. It's rare but happens once in a while, usually late in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scram Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 Thank you very much Scram! I really appreciate your response - It's not the one I'd like to hear, but I do appreciate the update! What was your original number? Wasn't it 20-23? I'd wager that you're now in the top 5. You should find out when deadlines are coming up for Queen's students (fees etc.), as any student opting out would do so closer to that date. We're still in mid-July right now, so it would be too early to realistically expect someone to drop out and for you to get an offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scram Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 The Queen's PT waiting list is still moving; my friend was just contacted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fskatergirl Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks for the update Scram! I started out as number 27 so I'm still a ways back...worst case scenario, I'm sitting at number 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermandez Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Does anyone have any stats on waitlist movement for Queens? I'm number 27 on the waitlist and I'm just wondering if I have any shot of getting in... For those who want to know... SubGPA: 3.65 (due to one VERY bad mark in second year - otherwise third year/fourth year first semester at ~3.8) CumGPA: 3.50 ECs: >500 hours volunteer/work experience in three clinics, professional coach >5 years, work with variety village, raised $15,000 last year for cancer research. Now that I have finished fourth year, I guess I will have a better shot next year as I will be at ~3.75 without upgrading. Anyone have any hopeful stories about getting in the second time around?

Accepted: U of T OT, Western OT, McMaster OT, McGill OT Wait listed: Queens OT, Dal OT Accepting McGill OT!! Good luck to all I was wondering what your gpa was and what your extra curriculars were.
