Sent an email to the admissions office to ask about the results of my admission, and soon received an email to check the portal. Only rejection, no reason given. Very unpleasant application experience.

Short email notifying me of results. Had my name and the name of the program to which I applied in the email so one of the nicer rejection letters I have received.

I'm the poster below as well, got official email rejection today after telling them to remove me from consideration a month ago. Hopefully the rest of you should hear soon! Good luck!

Personal message from POI. POI is undergraduate thesis advisor, current lab supervisor of volunteer position, and what I would call as close to a mentor as I could define. $15k CAD/year + TAship. He urged me to decline for another offer, I am heavy-heartedly going to take his advice.

Sent inquiry e-mail to graduate chair on status of application because I needed to inform other schools of my decisions. She told me (unofficially) that I had not been successful. Second time rejected, will not apply here again, something clearly missing from my apps.
