They actually did start sending out offers. Accepted of course! See you all in September. Do they release what rank on the acceptance list you were? I want to know what place I was in.
Is Quest updated yet?
I haven't received any update on Quest yet.
Thanks! I'm anxious to see the conditions because my school is on strike :O
how did you find out what number you are on the waitlist? did you call them?
and yea my quest hasn't been updated yet either
How do you know if you're on the waitlist or not? Does it include it in the email?
They told me my number in the email
They tell you in the email
Ohh okk and there's still hope though, I think that's about how many ppl they typically accept off the waitlist. Got my fingers crossed for you!!
Thank you Anna 🙂
Quest updated!!! 😀
heyy! congrats on the dental offer! do you mind sharing ur stats, I was interested in dentistry too but didn't apply, kind of curious as to knowing whether or not I have a shot lol
YES I need some information on this as well

Congrats on your acceptance! 😀 Quite a few optoms are living in Columbia Lake Village North this year, which is an upper year res. I recommend checking it out!
Hey guys, how are you all doing? This may seem like a negative question, but are any of you planning to decline your offer of admission, and if not, do you know of anyone who is planning to do so? I'm asking because I've been placed on the contingency list XD
I just declined mine 10 minutes ago! So that's a least one spot opening up soon! (Granted I suspect they might wait until the two-week deadline to accept offer passes rather than calling up the next person on the contingency list immediately). Goodluck!
Hey all! Congrats on the acceptances! Out of curiosity, what are the conditions of the conditional acceptance? Is there a certain gpa that must be maintained?
Heyy! In the email they sent out today it says we're expected to maintain our grades.
Has the waitlist started moving (just curious)
Don't think so, since today is the last day for accepting/declining I think
Update: They started calling applicants on the waitlist! Good luck all 🙂

From what I've been told, they typically take around 10 from the wait list
Just wondering what number are you on the waitlist ... I emailed them back in May and they also told me 4 🙁 seems like its not moving at all
youre so close ... im #8 so i think im out of luck this year

Don't want to get your hopes too high or anything but I might decline for NECO even if they offer me a spot
They told me that I am number 13 at the beginning of the wait period. They've taken 5 people in total, so I guess I'm number 8 now. Definitely don't think I'm getting in this year lol
