if you are worrying about admission this year I'm getting about a 87% average or so, and have been accepted to Waterloo For Computer Science, However they have not Accepted me for computer engineering.

I heard there was some slow down in the engineering department in choosing.

A question for those in compsci @ waterloo? Is it a good program? I'm very disappointed with St. Clair College's Programming I & II courses, and I'm debating Windsor Vs Waterloo after my St. Clair diploma

what kind of things are they looking for specifically on the Admission Information Form?
and doesn't Waterloo send out their acceptances really late? I'm going to apply next year but if I don't get in then I want to know so that I can accept a different school ...

The AIF is there for you to tell Waterloo more about yourself. It's there so they can see if you're a good student all around, not just academically. You put things like clubs you were/are in, projects you have done, etc..

Not really. Plus in 99% of cases you will hear whether or not you were accepted before the deadline for accepting an offer. You need not worry.

Edit: Typos...

Acceptances are usually sent out in April/May I believe, and you are expected to pay a res deposit in late May, so it should give you enough time to meet your backup's deadline. Mine was later because I had to finish a distance course to meet the prerequisites for the course, but I have a friend who was accepted long before that.

Off-topic: Is anyone going to Student Life 101 @ UW this weekend? I will be going up to Waterloo in a couple days to look at housing and attend SL101 on Saturday, so I might see you around.

The process is all done through OUAC, so they set the deadline by which a university must give you notice of offer or rejection, and they set the deadline by which you must accept. They put the latter deadline about a month after the former.

offtopic: PaulButler, yes I should be there on Saturday for SL101. Not sure for how long, I might be there with my Girlfriend or my Mom, I am unsure though, could just be me.

I was thinking of going to Waterloo for a weekend. In such a case, I will likely be around campus for SL101.

Is anyone organizing anything for Saturday?

Don't look at me!

Clayton · **Posted:** Wed Jul 18, 2007 7:10 pm

*looks directly at Cervantes*

Tony · **Posted:** Wed Jul 18, 2007 9:05 pm

I was going to get Clayton to come out, but he's hiding away at his fly camp. I can only assume it's not at Waterloo.

Martin's working in Waterloo this term, I'll give him a call on Saturday.

Ok, I am going up to Toronto tomorrow, but I will keep checking the forums to see if anything is going on.
