Congrats Babex_Omojesu! :)

Hey Nicloro, I would definitely contact the faculty if you haven't heard anything. I've found that calling them is better than email (as they are usually slow to respond by email in my experience). Good luck!

Does anyone who has been in the program already know whether students entering the AD program usually get scholarships? I know the deadline for the scholarship applications has passed, but at my last University (and from what I can tell, at UAlberta too) there were scholarships that we were automatically considered for and received at the beginning of the year. Any idea how much students in this program usually get, if anything? I'm mostly just curious, but I'm supposed to report that on my student loan application too. Thanks!

I'll email you!

oops, double post

Hey magicianfinger! I requested to join the group and it says "pending." I think maybe I just need to be approved..? :)

Congrats on getting accepted SolaO! I found the page that magicianfinger made-- I had to search for the name in Facebook and then select "Groups" specifically and it then it came up :) Does that work for you?

Thanks magicianfinger! I can't private message yet (don't have enough posts in AN). Is there a link or something you could post?

Does anyone know the schedule for Spring/Summer classes? Will we have a break of any sort? I live abroad and want to come back at some point next summer, but it's hard to tell how much time we'll have between the end of summer and start of fall semesters.

I *think* they calculate the AGPA from the grades in your most recent two terms, if they have at least 24 credits. If you don't have at least 24 credits, then they add all courses from the previous term to the average (and so on until at least 24 credits are included). Mine was 3.93 Good luck!!!

Congrats! Mine took longer than expected too... I applied to the honors AD program and got approved, but decided it wasn't for me so I had to switch my choice of program. Not sure about the CBL... I saw there was a "UAlberta- AD Nursing- Class of 2019" but I haven't seen anything for 2020. It would be great to have a fb group for our year!

I just received my offer a few days ago. I'm not sure if they send them out all at once or individually, but I would assume they stagger them. Good luck!!

Wow, I didn't realise.. it's kind of nice that you don't have to go through all the hoops that other schools need. I'm applying for the honors program, and I just recently talked to someone at the U of A and they said that the application is different and they do need other information, but they don't contact you about those other things until after the deadline... Does anyone know what else they need?

Hey! I also applied for Fall 2018, but I have no idea about what the GPA cutoff is. I'm not sure about anyone else, but I was a bit thrown off by the application process. I got into UBC last year (but then moved to Germany in September, so declined the offer) and for their application I had to take the CASPeR test and have letters of reference, along with a pretty in-depth application form. Am I missing something for the U of A application or is it totally just based off of GPA?
