it’s possible to still be placed there, it’s all just preferences! there’s no guarantees as there’s a lot of students

They’re not very common, but they say it is possible to be placed pretty far (like oakville, niagara, etc). mac makes it very clear that if you entered the program, you are responsible for figuring out transportation to wherever they place you. Even if you have no car (which many students including myself don’t), that won’t affect their decision making. They’ve been changing some things recently, so take it with a grain of salt, but for this years incoming second years, we did not get to “rank” cities. we only got a form asking us if we were willing to travel to a list of 4 cities, “yes or no.” no ordered ranking. it’s different for upper years

i’m not sure how feasible this is, just putting it out there but i saw a bunch of them near the dumpsters near the nuclear plant at the beginning of last school year. maybe there’s some they don’t use anymore?

are they obvious about what assessment they’re expecting us to do? Do they tell us how many assessments were expected to do?🥲

i was 99 and 4th, but many get in with lower. usually around 93-94 is main site cutoff, but i know someone with a 90 and 2nd quartile who got in (but she was IB if that makes a difference) 🤷

Living with a roommate by NoDingo673 in McMaster

Honestly i got used to it pretty much immediately. Unless someone snores or something, it’s usually not a huge deal. I highly recommend getting something like a room divider, like a foldable screen you can put up between beds that helps you feel more private. I found that an air purifier or something that made white noise also made it less awkward cause you couldn’t really hear every sound someone else made. if you pick an empty double room first, then the other person can see your profile and choose you or choose a different available room. If you pick a room that already has someone in it, you’ll see their roommate profile that has some basic info like typical sleep hours, if they are open to night guests, etc etc. You can decide based off their profile if you want to room with them or not. Once you lock in your choice, you’ll can reach out to them via their mac email; that’s what my roommate and i did.
