Any news guys??

UWO sent out an email today:"This year was the highest applicant pool ever with more than 840 applications and the admitting average is the highest to date. We are just now finalizing the students entering this program so you will get further information about registration, immunizations and orientation information the week of July 14"

No, Queen's didn't accept me, UWO did. But thank you for the encouragement :) I just received an email from UofT saying I've been placed in the 1st group

3.92 GPA, B.Sc. in Bio and B.A. in Psychology, over 3 years of research experience in several labs (neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and attention lab), volunteered in the hospital in high school and as a private practice assistant in university. I wish I knew why they didn't like me..

Same here. I'm emailing them right now to learn my place on the list.

@cupteel - sent!

em89, I PMed you the phone number. If anyone else needs it, let me know

Am I allowed to leave a phone number here?

No problem! No, she only said that everyone will know by June 30 for sure. I guess those who received an offer/waitlist clearly fit what they want, those who got a rejection aren't as competitive as the rest of the pool (no offence), and those who haven't heard back yet are still being compared and considered.. so we're the group that's not quite yes, not quite no I also forgot to mention that those who get waitlisted can wait all the way through to Sept. 5th if all the spots don't fill up by then.

Hey guys, so since I haven't heard back from UofT, I thought maybe my final marks weren't sent so I called my university and they confirmed that the final transcript was, in fact, sent. I called UofT and had a lengthy conversation with someone from the admissions office. First of all, I didn't realize I was supposed to send my final marks through OUAC. What I did was go to my university's registrar's office and have it sent directly to the university. The person at UofT said it's ok, although submitting through OUAC is the preferred method. She said if I haven't received an email that they're missing my transcript then it means they have it. Second, she can't tell anyone about our spot on the waitlist. By June 30th we're all aware we're getting 1 of 3 answers (offer, rejection, waitlist). I don't recall who mentioned the whole 1st group on the waitlist would get in, but I asked her about the groups and she said that not the entire group gets an offer nor is there a ranking among the people within the group; it's more of a random process. Anyway, I hope that shed a bit of light. To those of us still waiting - I'm holding my fingers for all of us! To those who got a rejection - I'm so sorry to hear that and good job to those who already got an offer!

Let that fear be your motivator! (to bring the phone to the bathroom, shower, whatever other odd places you can think of ) Good luck!

lalalene, I have a friend who applied to UWO last year and had an 84.6 average for her last 2 years (the admission cut off for the last year was 85 or 86%, I don't remember which). She was put on the waitlist well into June and was contacted by phone in late June with an offer of admission. They told her that had she not answered the phone that day, they would have gone on to offer her spot to the next person. So you only get one phone call!! Keep your phones charged and on you at all times!!

Thanks lalalene! I haven't yet, not even a waitlist email I've been lurking on every possible website (here, OUAC, UofT) to no avail. Good luck everyone and don't forget to post if your status at UofT changes please!

There is no deposit for Western. I accepted my offer and was not prompted to send a deposit. I, like you, thought there is one so I emailed UWO and they confirmed that there's no deposit required.

Has anyone heard from Toronto yet?? Yesterday was the last day for people who got an offer to either accept it or reject it so we should be hearing back starting yesterday.
