no news yet, still on the waiting list, i know people got accepted in mid/late july to this program before, so there is still a tiny bit of hope..

ive let them know im still interested so im just waiting to see what happens while continuing with my other school options for september.. UBC wouldve been perfect!

unfortunately no feedback, they said i would have to talk to the Associate Director in the fall... I would really like to know why I didnt make the cut now though, instead of waiting forever.

I just looked on the UBC website and I paid my fee for registration. When I looked up my confirmation letter, it said that I was entered for Winter session 2008. But in the admittance offer email, it had said that I was accepted for January. I have not heard back from SON and am wondering if there was a mix up or something.

Would those accepted, please tell me if all their letters say admitted for Winter session 2008? If I was attending in September, I would be a little shocked.

Hi Kendall,

Here at UBC, both the September and January session are collectively known as the Winter Session. We don't have what most schools would call a Fall Session.

I was also accepted for the January intake and in my admission letter it also said that I was accepted for Winter Session 08 so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Did you asked to be switched into the Sept intake...I would think they would let you know if you were able to be switched.

Looking forward to seeing you on campus. =)

Hi Smiles,

Thanks for the information. I also contact SON just to double check and I do begin in January. I just registered for courses yesterday, though I know it is really early. But I figured may as well when I was on the site. I look forward to meeting everyone in January. Have a great summer!

For those who are entering UBC SON in September, it would be great to hear your feedback and helpful suggestions once you have been in the program for a bit. Information about what the orientation is like as well as how the classes / clinical is. Any information would be great. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, congrats to all of you who have been accepted. I start in September and I'd be happy to fill you in on how it goes. I know they tell you that you need access to a vehicle for clinicals, but I'm wondering if anyone has, or will be trying to manage without??

Omigosh... I wouldn't want to be using public transit to attend clinicals in a city the size of Vancouver! UBC isn't affiliated with any particular hospital and they could be placing you almost anywhere within the GVA for clinicals. I don't know how early one would have to get up in the morning to make it to the site for 0645. Makes me tired just thinking about it!
