DwendlingHope Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hey guys, this thread is for those on the waitlists for all PT schools, post your rank, school, status (accepted or still waiting), and if accepted when you heard the good news, as well as any other comments you have. I'm #26 on Mac's waitlist and still waiting and kind of going crazy, I thought I would have heard some news today but nothing yet. Hopefully a lot of people comment in this thread to give us some more information and allow us to see where we stand, of course it could also serve to stress us out even more .

FullPoTato Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I'm in the top 1/3 of the Western waitlist. They said they were supposed to start contacting people in early June. Last year they started on the first Monday of June so I'm assuming they've gotten underway today. Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PThopeful228 Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Anyone know if Western also emails offers of admissions, or do they just call the phone number you provided on ORPAS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DwendlingHope Posted June 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Anyone know if Western also emails offers of admissions, or do they just call the phone number you provided on ORPAS? I have the same question about Mac if anyone can answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asiandonuts Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I heard that last year they sent an email (but it was an email only, not a phone call) for Western, so not sure if they will this year as they're calling us. Also, i'm top 1/3 of Western's waitlist as well, a bunch of us here ._. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asiandonuts Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Does anyone know when we should be expecting calls during the course of a day? Is it safe to assume like 9-5 and early mornings/evenings they probably won't call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTtime Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hello - I'm 10/43 on the Mac PT waitlist and haven't heard anything yet today. I'll update today if I hear something from McMaster or will check in again tomorrow afternoon either way. Good luck everyone waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OT__2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 No one has posted anything as of yet. So maybe they haven't started going down the list as of yet ! Stay positive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PThopeful228 Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I think there's about 60 people on each waitlist, assuming each third is distributed equally. Anyone else think it's unlikely they get through everyone in the first third? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else think it's unlikely they get through everyone in the first third? I don't understand why they put so many on the waitlist on top of over accepting. For them to get though it everyone they offer a spot to would have to decline and lose some people on the waitlist. Uoft PT has people at #120 or so. It just seams mean to give slight hope.

jeolla Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Thank you guys both. It gives some hope to hear that no one has heard anything yet. Yes, trying to stay positive, but I'm getting pretty anxious! I did ask someone who had been on the waitlist last year for Mac PT (in the 20s), and he/she said they were contacted with an offer May 31...

FullPoTato Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Nothing yet. This is bordering on stalking but I did notice that the Western PT facebook group increased by 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DwendlingHope Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Nothing yet. This is bordering on stalking but I did notice that the Western PT facebook group increased by 1. lol its something. I'm just starting to worry that there's not going to be any movement this year or their class is full, they said they would start letting people know starting June 1st, but no one has heard anything yet .

jeolla Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Nothing yet. Also really starting to worry. I thought for sure there'd be some news, but maybe they over-accepted more than usual this year if waitlist movement went into the 30s last year.

Ptonly Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 If it helps I declined my offer from Western. I did my undergrad there and wanted a change so I am headed to UofT instead. Good luck to everyone waiting, hopefully you will know soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
