Hi All,

Anyone who has submitted the application or has got an admit can share the application deadlines?

Best regards

Alberta does not really have application deadlines. They admit students on a rolling basis so you would not be at a disadvantage but it is advisable to finalize your application as soon as possible

Hi,

I just completed my application and I gave 1 Academic and 1 Work reference. I read in the portal that both references should ideally be from work but I couldn't really do that because few of my supervisors had shifted jobs. Will this affect the weightage of my application?

Even I had a similar situation but you could still ask your supervisors who have shifted jobs to write you a reference letter. You can provide their new company's email address where they would get a link to fill in the LOR details. I think you can still change referees after submitting the application as well but im not sure on that.

Hey!

Can you please share the date you applied?

This will give me idea about their time line. I am bit worried.

Thanks and all the best for the interview.

Thanks a lot buddy!!

I submitted my application on 3rd January and I guess my both recos were submitted within a week. They will only review your application once the recommendations are submitted. Don't worry they will definitely reach you sooner or later.

Thanks

We are sailing in the same boat. I submitted my application on 15 Jan and my referees submitted references by 17 Jan. Hoping to hear from UofA soon.

My referees are asking about minimum word limit for the reference questions. Can someone help me?

I can't put my finger on the exact reason. But probably the low GPA was the deciding factor.
