hopefulgradstudent Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 The dean of dentistry called applicants to let them know they were accepted today, I got a call around 9 am this morning but my Minerva status hasn't changed yet and no email either.

Vendar Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 I just got an email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedP111 Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 Same, just got an email. But it only says that my Minerva is updated, nothing else. It doesn't say that I'm admitted, doesn't come with an acceptance letter and instructions for next steps. Is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtown Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 Guys I am a bit confused I was wondering if you can help me out. So, on Minerva I am put on the wait-list which says I am #28. On an email they just sent me it says this: Your application (#3) to the Fall 2018 MDCM (Doctor of Medicine and Master of Surgery) program as Quebec Resident (Univ. Level). // Le statut de votre demande numéro 3 pour le programme MDCM (Doctor of Medicine and Master of Surgery) pour la rentrée Automne 2018 dans la catégorie Quebec Resident (Univ. Level). Does that mean I am wait-list 28 or 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedP111 Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 Omg I saw it I'm crying ;_; feels a lot more real when you read the actual letter Does anyone know what "comparable academic performance" means? Is there a final semester GPA threshold below which my offer is rescinded? Scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendar Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 I think the number implies what condition you met for the Residence requirement @jtown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedP111 Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 I think the number is actually the number of applications you've submitted to McGill. This is the fourth program I've applied to at McGill overall and I have #4. I checked my email from a few years ago when I applied to McGill for the first time and it said #1.

It is most likely the case that your application to med this year is being counted as #3 while the one to dent is being counted as #4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, that is number 4 situation- then that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVSS HDS CSM Posted March 27, 2018 Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 I notice that the MAAF paragraph 4 SS5 states: "Registration (via the Minerva system) in the M.D.,C.M. program requires that you cancel or decline any active candidacy (e.g. registrations, offers, waiting lists, applications, etc.) that you may have in any other institution of undergraduate medical education or training." Does that really mean that I have to cancel my app at UofT?! And by what time would I need to do that? Anyone hear of this before? They don't even release decisions until May 8! Same thing for SS6 of same para, regarding US schools. By what date would I need to withdraw from the US before this becomes an issue? Imagine getting rejected for this at the outset....... gosh!

I asked a current student about this, and they said the deadline is usually in June (around when the deposits can not be refunded or it is the same date)! You can email and double check! But you don't have to cancel your application until you know your result! I would only think that is fair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of the refund policy I doubt they'd expect you to decline before your Ontario offers. At Dalhousie they give you a 48 hour deadline to do this but here it seems to be Registration. Just hold off on registering (not accepting) which really finalizes your commitment to a school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
