Has anyone gotten off the TRU waitlist? I'm so anxious!

I was JUST about to cave and send UVic another email. This post gave me the strength to stop myself! Haha. I don't want to be crazy but I definitely am crazy. Sending you patient vibes. I've been having to ACTIVELY DISTRACT myself. I'm WAY far down the UVic waitlist so it's likely not going to happen for me, but I stand in solidarity with you about the AGONIZING wait!

They told you your position on the waitlist?

@northernnurse23 Uvic did, yes, after I emailed them. They didn't say explicitly in the waitlist email originally though.

Y'all, UBC is letting you know what number you are on the waitlist now! For those of you who are curious... Don't hesitate to send them an email

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

@northernnurse23 no and no idea where I'm at on the list. Not hopeful - I think at this point it would be only if someone dropped out last minute

Has anyone on UBC's waitlist heard back yet?

Does anyone know how long the SOCI 301 Stats course is?? I can't find it anywhere for the life of me. Uvic emailed me back saying the stats needs to be completed by July 31st prior to the September start date. I'm waitlisted and haven't taken it yet but thinking I need to asap

Does anyone know what happens if the mandatory orientation for UVic is missed in June? I already have prior commitments 🤯

I just finished SOCI 301. It's self-paced so you can do it as fast or slowly as you like, but I believe it's supposed to be completed within 6 months from start date. I completed it in just under 2 months. You should note that for Athabasca courses, you need to register by the 10th of the month in order to start the following month.
