cleanup Posted June 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Called in today and still no movement. Is it still too early, you think? No idea. I think it is fairly unusual for there to be no movement still. Some Premed101 forumers have even said that they never bothered to deposit at U of T, or that they were turning it down, and yet U of T has not reached out to the waitlist. Not sure if we can even trust the admissions office at this point lol. That said, in some previous years by early June the waitlist had only moved 2-3 spots (eg. 2009 I believe) and that year the waitlist went up to 23. Then again, this year UWO results came out much earlier, so I'm not really sure what's going on. Sounds like people are just holding on to their spots for now, for whatever reason...

afitzsi3 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 This should make everyone very happy. The waitlist is moving. I got my letter today and I will be accepting! I was #6 on the waitlist. Good luck to the rest of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slivoice Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Me too, just found the email. I was #2 on the list, but I was OOP. Best luck to people still waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was #6 on the waitlist. Good luck to the rest of you! Awesome! Congrats to both aftizsi and slivoice! I'm wondering if the folks between 2 and 6 are simply not posting on Premed101 or if they declined/withdrew their waitlist offers/spots. Either way, the fact that it's up to at least 6 is good news indeed. Thanks for the updates guys! Enjoy the rest of your summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanup Posted July 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 Hey guys! I just called the admissions office. I was originally ranked 14th and was told my current rank was 7th. So 7 spots have moved so far. Let's keep our heads up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacoocoo Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Just got in! Originally waitlisted at #8. Good luck to the remaining waitlisters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanup Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Thanks for the update, lacoocoo! Crazy how the waitlist didn't move for the longest time and suddenly, within the span of a week or two (as far as we know), has moved 8 spots. Hang in there everyone!

UofThopeful Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 Cleanup, do you think you're gonna continue to wait for UT or are you going to case western? I realize the school starts relatively early? Also i think the fact that the admission lady was away on vacation for 3 weeks might have something to do with the waitlist not moving -cough- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to move to Cleveland but if I do get that call/email then I will be heading back. I want to be close to home. Best of luck to everyone!

DRUNKEN GORILLA Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Yeah... really wondering what I should do at this point lol. Keeping my hopes up though. I remeber last year, and i hope you get UoT.I think still you have chance, last year 19 spots moved. And basically Case can be better choice for school itself, espec practice side. They will give your own chair. I mean at 3rd year you have your own chair. It is great , every day 2 or 3 patients makes big differences in whole year. So, you can just enjoy your situation if you can afford tuition fee. Cleb is close, only 3 hours driving from Toronto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for letting us know. I know it's important to not get ahead of ourselves, but I'm really happy for you because I think the odds of you getting into UT are looking VERY good right now. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanup Posted July 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Thanks eupharie. Just for people who are curious, a friend of mine (who is also on these forums) kept a quick and dirty list of waitlist movement from past years: Year Total offers Waitlist offers 2010 92 27 2009 92 27 2008 91 26 2007 105 40 2006 89 24 2005 100 35 I'd say people up to rank 20 are looking in good shape right now. Last year was a very slow year and this year is faster than last year by quite a bit (or so it would seem from the threads). I didn't include 2011 as although the Premed folks only went up to 19, it may have been a couple more than that. Would have to wait for official word from U of T to be sure.
