Mine still says under review by department too! So now I'm thinking maybe the refusals they are keeping till the end? It seems people who are accepted know, people have posted being waitlisted too.

Mine is still under review by department . Haven't heard anything else.

Mine too, under review

Yes of course. Things I did differently and what I added to my experience when I applied this time round: 1. I added volunteer experience, where I volunteered twice a month at a shelter. Doing basic wound care dressings. 2. I completely re-did my SOI and this time round I had like 10 people read it and give feedback. This included co-workers, my husband, teachers and non medical people. I worked on this for 2 months. Rewrote it 3-4 times. I really focused on being unique and showing flexibility. Keeping it very clear and to the point. 3. I had all 3 new references (doctor, CNS, CNE) they all had masters level or above. I told them what areas to focus on when writing my references so this ensured they weren't all similar. 4. I redid my CV and made it really detailed. My CV was 8 pages long. 5. I have certified practice in STI/CM and OUD. So this time when I applied I highlighted how many consults and scripts I've done. Which I didn't do last time. I added this to the CV. I hope this helps. I'm happy to answer anything else you may have questions on if what I did differently.

I got offered admission this morning too! Last year I was waitlisted so super excited this time for getting offered a seat. Still waiting on UVIC too.

Thank you! Still anxiously waiting to hear back from UVIC. Hopefully soon.

So sorry to hear, I wish they did too. It would be helpful to know when we apply a 2nd time.

So sorry! There was a waitlist last year, I was on it but never made it off. I still haven't heard from them. Wonder if they have already emailed accepted applicants.

Congratulations!! I checked the portal no changes yet for me. Will keep waiting ?

Did you hear from admissions yesterday if you got a seat? I'm still waiting, haven't heard anything.

Hi, yes I did find it hard to find the exact 4 pillars they were referring too. But I stuck with the 4 I thought that were important out of the 5 on the CNA guidelines. I researched on various sites and chose the 4 I felt were more important. But you're right, many searches always showed 5.

My background is mental health and substance use. I have CP in sti/cm. Last year I only applied to UBC, never made it off the waitlist. Hoping for good news this year.

Thank you for starting this. I am also in process of applying to UBC! Wishing everyone good luck:)

Thank you for starting this. I am in the process of applying to uvic too:) wishing you good luck.

Has anyone that has been waitlisted for UVIC/ubc heard back yet?

No have not heard anything yet. I hope there is a update soon for the ones on WL still.

Hi, I was wondering does anyone know what the NP schedule looks like for 1st year starting this Sept 2024? Which days are on site?

No, have been waiting to hear. Any updates that you have heard? Any idea how many on the waitlist?

I am still waiting too on the ubc WL. I did email them weeks ago asking about my place on the waitlist but never got a response. So will just continue waiting and not email again. Wish there was some info provided to the ones waiting on the WL. Thanks for sharing that UBC frowns re:emails about WL, regretting sending them one few weeks ago.

Has ubc shared at all how many people on the waitlist?

Thank you for this update? gives the rest who are still waitlisted a better timeline of things:) thank you!

I'm waiting too. I did email asking my place on the waitlist but haven't received a response yet. Just a waiting game I guess for now. I thought maybe there would be movement after the deadline for the students that were offered seats, which I thought was March 30th but maybe no one declined.

Nope, anxiously awaiting.

Who did you email to find out? The person who sent out the info that we've been waitlisted?

Hi, I am also on the UBC waitlist. What I heard from others was that once the deadline for the 1st offers that went out end, which should've been I think March 30th. Then there is usually a big shuffle the week or two after. Then a very small shuffle in Summer and then 1st week of September. So I feel for UBC waitlist the first shuffle should be this coming week or two. Did anyone receive any info from UBC of how many on the waitlist? And if we can be told our place on the waitlist? I agree the waiting is hard.
