med-dream Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 The Interview Dates page of the website says "*Additional dates may be added.*" Which translates to: additional days to anxiously wait for an invite Does it mean if don't hear anything now, shall hear something early in March?

RedLily Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Does it mean if don't hear anything now, shall hear something early in March? It doesn't seem like (just based on the lack of posts about it on here) the invites for the Feb 1 and 2 dates have gone out yet, so here's hoping we could still hear something soon!

RedLily Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Yah that's what I thought. Which is why Hockeynut really confused me. I had no idea when the later dates were, so I'm happy to know now (so I thought that was helpful?)! I need to pace myself- if we don't hear from them soon, it doesn't mean an automatic rejection! Worst case we have to wait a bit, but then if we get a no from Mac or another Ontario school (or other provinces) we can hope for a late interview from uoft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Yup, all the other Ontario schools will let you know in the last week of Jan/first week of Feb but UofT could keep you waiting for quite a while! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey sorry I didn't mean to confuse you, just trying to pass the time until I get an invite...or a rejection. I would assume invites would start going out tomorrow for Feb 1/2. This being solely based on last weeks invites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year, I tried drawing all kinds of patterns but when I see how these offices kind of work, I don't think there is any real consistent pattern that you can follow...

drtrumpet Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Let me play the pessimist and and suggest that the only different between admissions this year and last is that the wait has started earlier this year, and will end just as far off and unexpectedly, with the same frustrations felt again by most applicants... Luckily, it's U of T med we're talking about, so clearly the applicants they are selecting, and the process they are using to evaluate us has led to them being one of the top schools in canada.

Pessimist? Your signature depresses me too! Seriously though, one small benefit of a longer wait is that even after other schools has said yes or no, we have uoft as a possibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obi Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Just wanted to pop in and say good luck everyone!

Guest Fresh_Underwear Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I thought they only sent out inteview offers for Jan so far? You got one for April? Hi sorry, I mean when I ended up receiving my interview (back in 2012), it wasn't until March that I got the news for an April interview. Back then I was already making plans for next year so I kinda threw my plan out the window. So I can appreciate that the wait is tough and unfair, but it's worth it in the end.

med-dream Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 That was so strange. UBC doesn't have interview waitlist. If someone does withdraw the interview, I don't know how UBC handle the vacant spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
