Well... there are certain registration open dates according to your faculty. For example, I think for Business, the registration open date is July 3rd as opposed to Social Sciences which is July 4th. So all of you who have accepted, have to check that. I don't think there are any open dates before May 28, but you should check.

Btw, if its any consolation, Ive accepted also and haven't really any idea what to do, so your not alone haha. I guess its just a waiting game at this point, until I get my acceptance package.

I dont think you have to worry about course selections; according to this you still have until June 30.

I think it all depends on when your high school gets the marks to OUAC. Unfortunately, that's not something we really know.

"Once we begin receiving academic information from the OUAC in mid-July, we will start the reviewing process."

That was stated in an e-mail I got from McMaster, which was a reminder of the conditions I had to satisfy in order to keep my position. So I imagine the marks will be posted sometime very soon, within the next few days or couple weeks.

I think it all depends on your high school, and when they submitted them by. But yes, it should be soon.

The first year mailout gets sent July 24thish. So by that time you will have had your acceptance confirmed by the school.

In the mailout you'll get all the info you could ever need about first year and there is different stuff for those living off-campus in comparison to those living on-campus (ie if you're in SOCS you're not going to recieve a copy of the Residence Code of Conduct, etc).

At this point McMaster has started sending out the rescinded offers for Science, Business, and Engineering. If you're in one of those faculties and haven't gotten a message I presume you're okay.

Regardless, I'd contact your faculty department directly and ask if they know what's going on. You may end up getting re-directed to the office of the registrar, though.

Hey youngnicco,

Here's a link to the application process for last year. The dates and deadlines should give you a rough idea of when you'll need to submit your application. I suggest checking that website again around mid-to-late-September because that's when they updated it last year. Keep in mind that some programs have specific applications due at specific times (ex. the artsci program has a supplementary app that was due aug 8th).
Best of luck!

Opps, I forgot the link:
