carolynH Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 From the latest UBC Med Blog: Offers will, as we say on the 2011-12 timeline, be made beginning May 15th, no earlier – sorry, know the wait is agonizing. This year, UBC said the results will be out on May 15 and not any day sooner. I looked at last year's post. Mithril's was the first one to report receiving an acceptance letter by mail and it was dated May 12. Obviously, the letter was sent earlier. Did UBC Adcom say the same thing last year and ended up sending notices earlier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I talked to some of the first years at the interview this year they did say that some people received notice earlier than what UBC had posted on their website...could be the same this year. It certainly would be a nice surprise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithril Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 The day was May 13 last year. 2012 is a leap year, so the date this year is pushed forward two days. I did indeed receive my letter on May 12 last year, but the letter itself was dated May 13 I believe (or maybe it was dated May 12 and I was supposed to get it May 13; I've forgotten). In any case, I was in a very small minority that received my letter early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingblast Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Last year, Canadian medical school admissions committee sent out offers on May 13th because May 14 and 15th were on a weekend. This year's May 15th is on Tuesday so I don't think we will receive the offers any earlier this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdiesel Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I woke up this morning convinced that today was May 15! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larrivee Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I also got the letter May 12th, it scared the crap out of me. Some people didn't get letters and just got the email too... I don't know why some did some didn't though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylamonkey Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 The letters were mailed to some people, and so a few people in the grtr Vancouver area got their acceptance a day early last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterg Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I woke up this morning convinced that today was May 15! That's the weirdest thing...because so did I! And I haven't even thought about my interview in weeks. I was, needless to say, disappointed when I became re-oriented. But, no matter how bad we want to look to the future, we have to live in the present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was, needless to say, disappointed when I became re-oriented. But, no matter how bad we want to look to the future, we have to live in the present. I am kind of enjoying the wait. The what if is phase is getting me through some boring work days lol. I will of course be crazy excited if I get in, but if I don't I won't have regretted the mental escape during long work days...
