U of A acceptance

[uajchrisach]

I think rejections are mailed at end of summer when class is full and waitlist is done moving. Last year I got rejection letter in Aug or Sept. For those getting letters, what city do you live in? Eeeek I am going crazy wondering.

I live about 7 hours north of Edmonton

If only we knew what "small" meant for the number of those waitlisted haha, especially since it's not going to move much. Did anyone try to find out how many there were or where they were in the ranking?

Yes I did when I called. She said they don't release that info because the waitlist barely moves and they don't want us to get our hopes up. All she would tell me was that it was small. Not sure what small entails for her

For those who are waitlisted. What are your stats? That is if you are comfortable answering. I just want to know if I can finally move on and focus on my next year or if I still have a chance

Accepted, live in Toronto. Turning down the offer so waitlist will move at least one. Best of luck everyone.

I got waitlisted last year. if you are waitlisted at u of a its a big deal because you know that you are extremely close to that cut off!

Ya, that part is comforting. Gives confidence for next year which is nice. Especially since I'll have my lowest year removed for my GPA.

It surprises me only two people from premed said they are accepted. I wonder if the letters are still going out or something?

Just got accepted off the waitlist through phone call. Looking forward to meeting my class!
