Whats the difference between being deferred and waitlisted? I used to be on the “The Admissions Office needs to finish assessing the remainder of the applicant pool for this program, and we expect your application status to update on or before April 30th” now it changed to June 30th. Is that considered a deferral or waitlist? How come people are already getting outright rejected?

For reference I’m transferring into arts with a 3.1 GPA

So do I still have a chance?

Good luck everyone, accepting my fate of rejection with a 3.1 GPA for arts.

Just got off the phone with registrar office and they said transcripts are sent 5 days AFTER final grades are finalized which is the 24th (I used the Hold for final grades option) The woman said it’ll probably be sent to UBC by May 1st.

However, the UBC portal says that it’ll let me know if I’m accepted, rejected, or waitlisted by April 30th….They also emailed & asked for my final transcript by May 15th….so like what???

So my question is, how are they gonna evaluate my application by April 30th with no final transcript????? Or are they gonna purely base my application on Interim transcript. I called them a few times and no answer…does anyone know?

Anybody get a rejection or acceptance yet? Still on April 30th message 😭😭
