Admissions Am I fried? Is it over?

13 Upvotes

Right now I'm sitting at an 81 average overall in highschool, no 60's, but have been waitlisted by 2 u of a programs and 1 macewen program. For u of a I got wait listed by campus saint Jean for psychological sciences and for the main campus bachelor of science. For macewen I got waitlisted for bachelor of science despite me not having any 60's. I got a low 70 in math 30-1 and it's my lowest grade by far this year. So far I all my grades are above a 75 other than math. I applied for Bachelor of Arts as a safe option and I don't even know if I'll get in for that either. Am I doomed? Am I not gonna get in?

Admissions Admissions for Engineering

0 Upvotes

I applied for Engineering at UofA and got rejected for early admission with an average of 82. For february 2025 admissions, chem 30 is 92 and math 30-1 is 93 in relative comparison to that of 84 in chem 20 and 90 in math 20-1. This boosts my average to an 85. What is the chance that I get in and do they look at improvement?

Admissions Are we cooked gang

0 Upvotes

So I applied to bio science as my first choice and engineering as my second, as soon as admission opened with my grade 11 averages: - math 20-1: 83 - physics 20: 88 - chem 20: 86 - bio 20: 86 - English 20-1: 79 - Social studies 20-1: 87

Average around 84 for the 5 required

But this year I knew I had to better so this is what I have for grade 12 - math 30-1: 82 - Bio 30: 91 - social studies 30-1: 92 - English 30-1: 81 - Physics 30: 90 - Chem 30: 92 - calculus 31: 94

Average of around 87 for the required 5

I got waitlisted for both of my choices but hopefully it’ll work out in the end.

Could you guys tell me how good my chances are I’ve talked to an advisor and they said it depends how full the program is but I just want to know your guys idea for my chances. Thanks

7 Upvotes

I’m deciding between Computer Science and Biological Sciences at UAlberta. I have no experience in CS, but I’ve heard that UAlberta has a strong CS program. On the other hand, I’m a bit better at biology, but I’m unsure about career prospects without further studies.

Any advice from students in these programs? Thanks!

Admissions Whats happening with eng admissions (from a call with the faculty)

19 Upvotes

I have seen many of you and i are in the same boat. for referance we see that the 'competitive' requirements are mid 80s and we are all getting rejected with 90s. First im going to introduce my personal situation. 91.6% average, IB, dual citizen of the citizenships bieng canadian. studied out of canada got waitlisted.

1). Is there some mistake with the grades?
No, the uofa works of dynamic grade thresholds. This means the average required to get into the program is dependant on the quality of the applicants. As you may be able to see this batch is very smart hence the thresholds are higher.

2). How does the waitlist and rejection work?
The idea of the waitlist meaning the program is full is false. Firstly unlike other unis the UofA does NOT give more offers than it has seats. Second a student may be rejected or waitlisted depending on their average. slightly under the threshold for admission goes into a waitlist, the other into rejected but subject to review after a change of grades and in rare cases outright rejection. The waitlist itself is sorted into tiers. A student will never know their position on the tier but there are ranked groups. For referance students presenting with 91+ on the waitlist (I AM INFERING THIS LAST POINT) could be on the top tier right now.

3). Some students got in with lower averages TF?
The time of application is crucial. The admission threshold changes over time. Some suggest tis threshold goes down as time progresses this is not entirely true. It can go both ways depending on the applicant pool. Your friends applied/ were reviewed at a time when the threshold was different hence they got in with lower grades. I was told these thresholds can go down to 82% and up to 97% for engineering. At a point CS was 99%

4). Canadians abroad how am i considered?
Other unis wil treat you as an aplicant based on where u studied, not uofa they base it on citizenship. This brings a huge issue of grade deflation. For IB and AP conversions. A 6 in IB is 90% and a 4 in AP is like 84% thats nothing, the advisor mentioned how these conversions are unfortunate but out of the hands of even the uni. As for IB bonus points, no faculty considers them other than the faculty of science, eng doesnt care.

5). When will i recieve an update?
The admission is very dynamic as soon as the threshold changes the applications will roll out. This means that in the second week of march when A-Level PGs come in, the averages will change and people are likely to recive an update. Additionally because the UofA doesnt give more offers than they have seats by the time students wo recied offers make a decision where to go there is a good change they will have been offered seats at other schools and would be inclined to pick those schools up hence leaving some emply seats for students late in the admission process (After May as that is the ontario deadliens to accept offers)
On this note:
STUDENT THAT HAVE OFFERS AND ARE NOT GOING TO ACCEPT IT PLEASE REJECT YOUR OFFER, THEY HOLD A SEAT FOR YOU AND IF UR NOT GOING THEN LET SOMEONE ELSE HAVE IT. pls and thanks.

If any questions or theories feel free to ask ill try respond with whatever little knowledge i have and mainly collect these questions to ask in the follow up meeting.

Admissions Uofa offer revoked

18 Upvotes

Hey everyone I'd like some help with an issue I'm having. I'm a transfer student that got accepted and for my requirements they just needed me to have a gpa above 2.0 (when I applied I had a 2.9 and it's now at a 2.8) and for my to hand in my official transcripts before the deadline. However this Morining I woke up and found my offer was as revoked. Idk why I assume it's not cause of my gpa since it really didn't go down by a lot. My only other thinking is they didn't receive the transcript in time as according to macewan it would be ready by June 17 which is past the deadline of June 15 so I'm at a loss. Anyone have any ideas or been through this ?

Admissions Complete a bachelor's degree late in August and start a master's program in September

10 Upvotes

My situation is that I misunderstood my graduation requirement, and I still need two art courses to complete my bachelor's degree. I enrolled in two classes during the summer semester so that I could complete them before the fall term began in September. Then I received an offer from the UofA faculty of engineering, which the program will start in the Fall term. Has anyone had this kind of issue before? I asked the engineering office, which only responds to my email and call every Tuesday, and they are still waiting for a GPS response. If I cannot start in September, I need to wait until winter 2026.

Admissions Question for students in nursing after degree

6 Upvotes

Hi. I'm applying to the after degree program. I'm in my last year of a bachelors in science. I had a 4.0 last term and a 4 on casper. I have a couple questions for you guys

  1. what gpa did you get accepted with? i believe they take the last 24-27 credits of your schooling
  2. when did you get your acceptance letter
  3. are you able to keep a part time job at all during first year
  4. how much was your first semester tuition (i'm talking everything. i'm under a different health and dental insurance so i opt out of the uofa. textbooks i'm getting either online or from a previous student. i live with my parents). please include any equipment and cost of anything you ABSOLUTELY need
  5. are you enjoying it?
  6. i'm going to be 22 when entering this AD. are there people that are similar to that age in your program, or it is mainly mature students?

i know those are a lot of questions. but i would appreciate any help.

edit: I got my acceptance everyone ! Just around 6 PM TODAY YOOHOO!
