housecalle Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 Hello, Does anyone know how many spots the UBC MOT waitlist typically moves? I tried searching this forum for information from past years, but so far no luck. If I find any info I'll be sure to update this post. Also for individuals who were waitlisted for UBC's MOT program in previous years, but then were offered a seat, what was your initial waitlist number? Thanks EDIT: Also, does anyone know if this information means that for 2017 intake, there were 365 applicants for the MOT program, admission offers were given to 66 individuals, and a total of 52 individuals were admitted, so then there was 66-52 = 14 people accepted off the waitlist? https://imgur.com/a/ga5Oa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrualmu Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 Did you get an email saying you were waitlisted for next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don't know why the numbers don't add up. But if I split it by domestic/international, it says 11 offers were made to international students and of those 11, 8 accepted. For domestic, it says 55 offers and 44 accepted. Maybe because of the limited seats, those 4 unaccounted for seats represent individuals who did not complete the program in 2 years, so are still attending?

OTSK Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Is there a separate waitlist for OOP applicants and in province applicants? If not, how does it work, does a OOP waitlisted applicant only get a spot if an accepted OOP individual drops? Ty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivieK Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 RE: Waitlist Movement... I was accepted into the UBC OT program yesterday, and I was initially #2 on the waitlist. Best of luck to everyone waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTPsycApp Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Thanks for updating! The department said anywhere from 2-15 people on the wait list get accepted (it varies a lot every year) so fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTPsycApp Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 Just wondering, is anyone currently accepted to UBC planning to decline UBC's offer in favor of a different program? Just trying to estimate if I should expect the wait-list for UBC to move any further. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone else hears back could you update here? I was originally #5 on the UBC MOT waitlist, so I am just wondering if there's been any more movement. Thanks!

OkanaganOT Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 I couldn’t find the page either. The link on the email sent from the department sends me directly to the 2019 group. Glad I’m not the only one who can’t find it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
