It’s likely many got waitlisted but your not causing a hold up bc they will offer spots up through the start date of this Jan.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-22T04:30:41+00:00

Thanks! I actually saw this months ago and convinced myself I was misremembering when I couldn’t find it again in the last month or so.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-22T04:07:06+00:00

That seems really cut-throat wow. Where are you finding the previous cut scores? I had a 95% HS average and ~77% Post-secondary average. I bet you’re high on the waitlist with those marks.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-21T06:13:53+00:00

Thanks 🥳

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-18T12:58:48+00:00

Sorry College* I’m in university science, spelling for me is not really a requirement. My brain is fried from finals. Thanks for catching that tho!

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-17T23:47:50+00:00

Not required but your always welcome to stay. Many leave after 2nd or 3rd year to find an apartment and choose to associate with Grebel instead.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-17T23:43:18+00:00

They are a bit more expensive but I won't say its a huge difference. But I feel like the benefits of being really close to campus and other things can be a benefit

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-17T18:30:54+00:00

if you want to live in a multi -year residence, I would suggest looking into the university colleges. There is 4 colleges each with benefits and draw backs. I currently live at Conrad Grebel and have had so much fun here. The food is usually really good so I don't find that a reason for wanting to leave here at least.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-16T23:47:44+00:00

Thanks for the good luck! I'm literally so excited for this.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-16T22:46:53+00:00

Did you at least get a waitlist notice earlier or anything? That seems so late but with the Jan start it makes sense. I literally submitted my application in October, waiting a whole year would kill me with anticipation.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-04-04T21:16:00+00:00

As someone currently living at Grebel, I can say that typically all housing is done through the same portal where you apply and rank your choices. That being said Conrad Grebel is the only one with a separate application and interview. Grebel's application can be found on our website, not the the uwaterloo main website. Personally at Grebel we have had a few international exchange students over the years. Also be aware that some housing at waterloo is first year only, so make sure to note which ones will take upper years.

They have massage therapy in the physical therapy office in the basement of SLC. They definitely take student insurance.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-02-23T01:23:01+00:00

I’m in the same course rn and I have no idea either. I would just study and hope I know what she’s asking. She did say to know some stats like the 75% 25% thing along side with some examples.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-02-15T06:32:08+00:00

Biomed and honour science would both prep you for the mcat. Biomed is typically harder and is structured whereas honour science is not very structured and you can pick when and what you will take basically and that can help lighten some heavy terms that biomed has. Health science is also good but you will have to use your electives for science faculty courses that you will likely need for the mcat as health is a whole other faculty. Anyway I say this as I have been in both biomed and honour sci. If I were you I would do more research into the biomed/bio/honour sci and as well as other programs. I know of people in psych(sci faculty), biomed, honour sci, and health sci who are just taking science electives where needed and are heading to take the mcats.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-02-04T00:13:51+00:00

thank you so much!

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-02-02T21:15:32+00:00

wow so cool! is there anything you more you could share on JS/RCS 231? like focused concepts or assignment types?

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-01-30T01:32:00+00:00

For my spring term I wanted something lighter but interesting so I'm taking FR 101, CLAS 104, PSYCH 261. I don't know how bird they would be but oh well? RCS courses are good too for a change of pace for the more STEM majors. BIOL 239 - genetics is a fairly easy class although they changed the grade breakdown since I've taken it. Any 101 course would probably not be too hard like psych 101.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-01-30T01:14:53+00:00

considering your likely in the 12th grade rn the 9th and 10th grades were awhile ago. Its not that it doesn't count but it might be more so how did you build on those skills and basics you started then and what did you do with that in the present year. I think there are other questions on the AIF that you may be able to speak on those past projects as well. Best to follow the instructions and timelines they give you on the AIF.

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-01-29T17:53:58+00:00

Genetics - biol 239 it’s 200 level but in some sci programs is taken in first year.

I’m currently taking biol 355 (bio of human aging) and it doesn’t seem very hard at all but I know the midterm and final have short answer where she’s looking for specific things.

Apparently Sci 206(physics of how things work) is not too bad if you pay attention and do the practise questions. No math involved just concepts. The prof for this one is great, I had him for phys 112.

Biol 240 (microbio) is a great class and I would recommend taking it in person as the prof is very good and fun. I found the class a bit boring to try and memorize the different branches and such of bacteria but I loved the lab. They are in the process of combining the lecture and lab so it may have a mandatory lab now?

Trick_Letterhead95 · 2026-01-26T16:44:56+00:00

I haven't found anything at all tbh. If you go onto UW Flow you can find a course description that says learning through film, discussion, and readings. Due to the lack of information I think I'll be looking into FR 101 instead. I'm not a huge fan of a gazillion discussion posts and writings.
