Anyone else just a complete bundle of nerves today?!
-
As far as I know, no one here has called them. But yes, we'll find out soon! One week to go, everyone! (And that's worst case scenario )
-
Anyone want to call admissions to ask when they'll start sending out acceptances?
-
For anyone who has been accepted to UofT, have you received any more information about scholarships? I know the email said that they will let us know in "Early Spring" if we will be awarded a scholarship, but I'm wondering if anyone has heard anything more specific. Thanks!
-
@Tornurs oh fair enough! Well, fingers crossed we hear back this week!
-
Just out of curiosity, did you also apply to UofT? :)
-
Does anyone know how they determine your GPA if you didn't take 5 classes per semester? I took 4 classes each semester in my last year, so they'll have to go back to the previous year for 2 more classes. Will they take the average of that semester?
-
@mdana93 I agree though.. I like percentages way better! I hate how so many schools use different GPA scales. 4, 4.33, 9, 10, 12. So confusing!
-
OMSAS - Undergraduate Grading System Conversion Table - Ontario Universities' Application Centre This is what I use to calculate my GPA on a 4.0 scale. UBC uses column 7. So a 3.7 would be 80-84%.
-
I actually think a 3.7 is between 80-82%. Still very competitive. But 90%+ would be a 4.33 GPA.
-
Congratulations! Would you mind telling us your stats/EC's? :)
-
No, and I was too scared to ask! Haha. The good news is, the phone line to admissions is actually open! (When I called two months ago, it went straight to voicemail. Probably due to the extremely high number of calls!) For some reason, I got the vibe that we will be receiving our letters closer to the end of April. If anyone wants a more concrete answer though, please be braver than me and ask them! Haha.
-
Phew - it's definitely 550. I talked to admissions at UBC.
-
@to-be-nurse 550 applicants this year. :)

***UPDATE: I just called UBC and they received about 550 applications. Letters still going out by the end of April. ***
