mjd2012 Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone has any information/experience with applicants who were originally rejected (met GPA cutoff, but "details of autobiographical sketch did not permit your application to advance further"...). I have recently been offered an interview (I am OOP), however, am just wondering if I am still on the same competitive basis as others who were offered interviews in the "first draft"? Any insight or info would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 I'm in the same boat. I've never heard of this happening but I don't think we are at any disadvantage (other than having the lowest file score of all the interviewees and hence need to perform exceptionally at the interview) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimi.mtl Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 I got this today too. I don't think we're at any disadvantage...according to their website, at this stage it's just interview score and wGPA that'll determine whether or not you get an offer of admission.

mjd2012 Posted February 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 well that sounds promising! of course it would be hard to turn down, its just a huge financial cost to go for interviews as an OOP (airfare, hotel, meals, etc etc) so it would be nice to know that we are still considered "in the game"! hahah. the lady from admissions mentioned she would send along an email with interview documents.. have you received this yet?

I don't think it affects you in anyway negatively from what I looked into before. You are simply another interviewee. congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
