Hi. I got accepted in University of Illinois but I also applied to UBC and Toronto and for Toronto I even applied for scholarship. I really want to get into Toronto but their decisions come around May (as I have heard). And May 1 is the deadline to enroll in UIUC. What do I do???
The results might come out before
Stall till then
As it is UofT sends out the majority of acceptances in the 3 3rd week of March
You’ll mosey probably hear from the Canadian ones before April which leaves you with a lot of time on your hands to decide!
Be wary however, of the fact that Canadian colleges stipulate conditional percentages and if your grade 12 marks are below that then you cannot attend.
So you have got to weigh your options carefully.
For now you’d do well to be patient.
Best of luck!
You can always deposit at University of Illinois if you haven’t heard back by May 1. If you get in to UBC or U of T after May 1, you can withdraw from University of Illinois. Deposits are usually pretty minimal. U of T does send out most acceptances around the third week of March.
You’d deposit at one American college and then withdraw later in if you get into a Canadian university.
Agree with above comments. Keep an eye on the calendar to make sure that you don’t miss the deadline for U of I, but I think that there is a good chance that you will hear from the others before then.
PS: UBC is a very good university IMHO. I have many relatives who graduated from UBC. Good luck!
