Yeah, he did get in! He also got a $3,000 entrance scholarship.
He applied to both Science and Arts, and he was accepted to Science. His Arts application still says Ready for Review.
I'm not too anxious, I've already been accepted by my first choice so I'm pretty happy.

Umm, probably around 96.
But he has something like 8 grade 12 courses finished already because he fast-tracked and took two courses in the summer as well.

SAME! I've been checking all day and then I pressed refresh expecting "ready for review" only to see "admitted pending final results." I FEEL SO RELIEVED!

It doesn't even bother me that I didn't get an entrance scholarship. I was sitting at a 92.3 if you average my grade 11 and 12 marks, so I wasn't surprised.
Just getting in the first day is enough for me!

i got in too! question though: if you dont get an entrance scholarship with your acceptance, is there no chance it will be updated? i applied for a major one, but only in the hopes that they would pity me and give me a basic (instead of nothing...)

I don't think it updates. My friend applied for a major one too. His major one is still pending but he was notified that he got an entrance scholarship.

Yeah, it's at 93% for my first semester of grade 12. 2/5 of my academic courses were completed.

I think what deterred me was my grade 11 average -- it was 85%. I never should have taken chem and physics last year. Without these courses, it would've been at 91-92. Maybe I'd be in right now.

don't worry you'll get in eventually. I had crappy grade 11 marks too. but the good news is that they dont look at ur grade 11 mark. The mcGill lady said it was only for scholarships. Their admission timing is totally random. My friend who applied later with lower grade got in a week before I did. with 93% arts, how can McGill NOT accept u? :p

sigh. im so jealous of you guys. one question! i'm not doing early admissions. i'm applying for regular admissions (sciences) but I won't be able to submit my marks in until a week before the deadline because i still have online course work to finish :( my average is probably going to be between 92 & 93. do you think applying so late will decrease my chances of getting in? your opinion would really be appreciated :D

YESSSS! Accepted today for Arts!

And imaklutzzz, I don't think it'll decrease your chances... Maybe it'll just delay your acceptance? I'm not entirely sure though.
