How do we see how the waitlist is moving? 

We can’t, not unless people post on here, those who got accepted probably have until June 7th so it won’t move for a while

Hi everyone,

Thought I should share my results. 
Grades - 3 (GPA approximately 3.8)
Supplemental - 1
Casper - 3
AL-23

I believe it was the supplemental application that made a difference in my application. I have a MSc from UBC. In terms of volunteering, I did not have healthcare experience. However, I have worked with the homeless population in Vancouver. I also spent two years in the military (shift work). As for Casper, I messed up because I am not good at typing. Unfortunately, due to life decisions (finances and age), I have decided not to pursue nursing anymore. So AL-24, you are now Al-23 (unofficially). I hope this info helps. Best of luck to all applicants. Don't give up hope ?

In the email, I was told that I was Al #35. Supplemental-3 (healthcare volunteering and caregiving experience)

Grades-1 (88.6%)

casper-4 (slow typer T.T and my answers are most likely not that impressive)

Based on previous years, around 35 students from waitlist got in, I hope I get in this year…???

It’s so interesting how they score people because I applied with a 96% avg in my last 30 credits but got a 2 in grades but I’m also #30 on waitlist

here’s to hoping we both find out soon!

Same.. I feel like they put a lot of weight on grades this time as well? I saw some people with lower ranking on supplemental application and CASPER have higher waitlist number than me ?‍♀️

Weird, I was accepted with 82% average but I had top quartile for Casper and I think my supplemental was pretty strong

IDK. I have around the same average as you (~83) and also scored in the top quartile for CASPER. However, I don't have as much professional work or volunteer experience as I just finished my 2nd year at UBC and also COVID so I couldn't really do much for the past 2 years. I am waitlisted at #39 which is neither good or bad based on previous results? I mean they added extra seats this year so I'll stay  hopeful ☺️

Literally been crying in my bed since after getting my rejection. I received 2 for Casper, and 3 for both supplemental and grades.

I’m so sorry to hear this! That’s crazy how close the rankings can be and it be the decision of waitlist or rejection I had almost identical scores but I’m on the waitlist in a mid position 

wishing you all the best, what’s meant to be will be keep your head up ?
