jbruce27 Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Does anybody know when we should be expecting to hear from McGill about interviews? Or has anybody heard yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulululu Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 I haven't heard anything, judge by the posts from the previous year, it might be around mid april... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulululu Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 the mcgill spot website said the deadline has been extended to the 20th from the 15th of Feb., wonder if that means they don't have enough applicants this year? if that's the case, it'd be awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheepE Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 I am currently doing QYPT at McGill, I heard back April 12th about interview last year, so I would expect it should be within the next week or 2! Did they send you an email? or did you have to check the application status? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheepE Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 It was an email with the invite as PDF attachment from the director. The minerva status update only came later I believe... Thanks! I know a friend who is doing the same program as you are and he's probably your classmate xD. He says the program is intense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lulululu Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 seems McGill OT info is out, will PT come out soon? Hopefully we'll hear from them today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metke Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 I called the McGill PT dept on Wed . they said they were aiming for next Friday (April 19th). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otmongoose Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Did anyone else hear back from mcgill for OT? I'm nervous now because I haven't heard back yet, so I'm not taking that as a good sign (since for med schools, people who got their interviews heard back in the morning at the same time and people who got refused only heard back later that day) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulululu Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 if it's any consolation, my OT application status changed this morning to "refused", so it seems no news is good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulululu Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 I called the McGill PT dept on Wed . they said they were aiming for next Friday (April 19th). really? another week to wait ?? argh !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otmongoose Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 if it's any consolation, my OT application status changed this morning to "refused", so it seems no news is good news. oh no! i'm sorry, good luck with PT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lulululu Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 nah, it's ok, I applied to OT only because they allow applying for two programs with 1 application fee...didn't have any hope anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chii Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Good luck to you guys! I'm curious about your GPAs, if you don't mind my asking! I am so seriously considering applying to Mcgill's program when I finish in 3 years. Especially if there are no teaching jobs. I just wonder if in the end I will be competitive. I'll be getting a BFA and a BEd. I think I'm hovering around a 3.5 right now. Really though, I feel like McGill's program would be a dream come true for me, if I end up persuring it. I love Montreal, french language and Quebecois culture. It's really good to prepare and think about possible alternatives if the job market still sucks in 3 years.

chii Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Ahh, I see! That's a really interesting option, but I'm already two years into my degree, and I would hate to bail on it now. I feel like PT would be the option if in the next few years, I can't find a job. Or if something huge changes, but I doubt it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lulululu Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Checked the minerva thing, didnt change, still "ready for review", but I did get the email for PT with PDF stating the date and time for interview. is it still the 14th of May for the interview this year?

SheepE Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 is it still the 14th of May for the interview this year? Yeah it is, ridiculous though, 7:45 - 1:45pm, reason: "Please note that the time required for your interview will be around 2 ½ hours. However, as there are numerous circuits, you may be required to be present for up to six hours and therefore must arrange to be available for the entire time." Goodluck!

sharkie23 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Just emailed Mcgill's pt department. They said they're sending out emails sometime this week. Don't think they're done sending them. Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
