Notes
Totally disappointed and surprised as well. Applied for MEng winter 2021 intake. Application submitted on September 2nd, Application completed on September 30th. 4 internships, 1 publication, 5 projects, Dean list's honor, cGPA: 3.74, last semester GPA: 3.96, Domestic applicant did undergrad outside Canada. I submit my IELTS 6.5 (I got over 6.5 in every component just got messed with reading so it's 5.5, still it is within the minimum as stated on the website). So, the lesson is never to submit your application when meeting the minimum (at least for civil eng, you have to always be above the minimum) + don't apply for Winter. I wish good luck to everyone who got the offer!
