PnDDS 2 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Does anyone get rejected? Or is everyone not accepted just waitlisted? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Coronaxtra 53 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Does anyone get rejected? Or is everyone not accepted just waitlisted? People do get rejected but the waitlist at UWO is quite long. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

timets6 0 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 i think its 80! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Coronaxtra 53 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Do you know roughly how many people are on the waitlist? It's at least 60 (enough to replace the class) but personally, I think its more. I've heard people from previous years say 80-90. Not entirely sure though all speculation. One things for sure though, it is long. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Coronaxtra 53 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Lol. This is false. I did say it was speculation...care to elaborate on what you know about the waitlist? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Winnipeg9416 14 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Lol. This is false. How long do you think it is? Shorter I'm assuming? I hope you're right! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Qui-Gon 0 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 I agree with 412simba on this. There is no point in having 80-90 on the waitlist. My guess is 56 at most. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paseo 2 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 I didn't receive any email and I was interviewed, what does that mean? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RootCanal95 0 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 I didn't receive any email and I was interviewed, what does that mean? I don't think any emails were sent yet but you can find your status on student centre! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oeve921 0 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Is there any way to figure out our ranking on the waitlist? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paseo 2 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Or any way to figure out how many are waitlisted? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
welcometocanada1 0 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 so cruel... doesnt tell you what ranking you are. at least if we know if we're midtier, or higher, we can adjust our summers accordingly. i dont really see the point in keeping it private but oh well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
timets6 0 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 You can call them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Crispy_Dorito 11 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 You can call them! I'm pretty sure that even if you call, they won't tell you anything due to "confidentiality policies" It's good to have high hopes, but don't put your life on hold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MT_93 68 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 I called earlier. There is no separate OOP waitlist. It's all one waitlist. They also said that there is no quota of IP or OOP they will take. She said that the number of people on the waitlist is confidential as well as our positions on the waitlist even telling us if were closer to the top or bottom.

timets6 0 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 38 people got off the waitlist last year, so most people opt for other schools (whether med or dent) around 30ish got off UofT too. so i guess most chose med last year? or OOP dental scools as I heard they give out generous grants to study there plus tuition is cheaper!
