Waitlist Shortened

By Admissions on Jun 17, 2014 We have shortened the waitlist. If you received an email from us today about this, please take heart in the knowledge that you made it very far in our highly competitive admissions process, which is something we hope you can be proud of. For those of you who did not receive any news from us today, you are still on the waitlist. However, realistically, we anticipate that there will be only a few offers from this point on out so it is probably in your best interest to consider making other plans for next year, including starting another application to our program if you still wish to pursue medicine at UBC.

Offers Update

By Admissions on Jun 12, 2014

After completing seven rounds of offers we are able to report that the class is currently full. This is a day of mixed emotion, as we are happy for the new class members, but sad for those who have been patiently waiting for news. We will likely make a few more offers before orientation starts in the fall, but for now all positions have been filled. Our next step will be to look at the waitlist. As promised, we will update the blog when the waitlist has been shortened.

Offers – Round 6 Sent

By Admissions on Jun 10, 2014

Round 6 offers were sent today. Our congratulations to the people who received an offer this round! The deadline for this round is on Thursday, and we will send another round after the deadline.

We’ve gotten quite a few calls asking about waitlist movement. The waitlist is still moving, but it is slowing down, and we think we will be able to shorten the waitlist by the end of the month. That’s about all we can say for now – we’ll definitely post an update when we shorten the waitlist. Thank you for your patience.
