What are my chances of getting in with a 83.5% average?
Also, what is conditional offer average...
and if you got into this program, what was your average?

I'm pretty sure Western's general minimum average is an 84%. That is what I have heard from everyone else. Nursing for example needed an 89% average.

I got an offer back in february to the general science program with an 85-86 average. The offer says you have to maintain an 84 average but I think you might still have a shot. Good luck!

....if the conditional average is 84 and my average is 83.5....does that mean I cannot get in? or are there cases where they accept people below their cutoff if more seats are available?

If there is s till space, then yes absolutely they will accept more students. Just call the school admission dept.

While of course my word is by no means justified, I have absolutely no way of knowing this, but I think this means you won't receive acceptance. The requirement for all programs is an 84% to maintain, so I don't think they are intending to accept anyone with any marks for any program with less than an 84% because it wouldn't make sense to accept people with less than that but revoke admissions if people get marks less than that. I would contact admissions if I were you, but also if you do receive rejection, all hope is not lost! I'm sure there's some way to apply for reconsideration. I would work really really hard toward your exams if I were you and try to push your mark up to an 85 if there's any way that you can and then contact admission with your final marks! Good luck!
