  My profile on UBC's site:
You were offered admission on May 22, 2008. A letter advising you of this decision, which includes registration information, has been mailed to you. So that we may confirm our offer of admission, you must submit your final official transcript when available.

That's from UBC. What does that mean? I don't understand, how is this possible. lol

I guess they just wanna make sure? Send in your requirements (again) and registration form.

  Or possibly a letter of your naked self. That might help.......... or not.

I think he was surprised that he got in.

Still hasn't sunk in yet. Give it a week. Not until the registration stuff ends up in Missouri (its being sent to Nanaimo and has to be redirected).

It looks like it's their way of saying "Thanks, we have received your application.  Until we receive your final transcripts, we will give you our final acceptance (yay or nay)."

I wouldn't get too too excited though.  The rest is up to you and your final grades.

I thought that way too, but they're sending out a letter of acceptance to me. So what does that mean? I've sent in my final transcripts. Honestly I don't get it, my grades aren't 'UBC' like. Yeah my High School stuff is high, but I messed up on the second semester. Which is why I don't get it. I don't feel like I deserve it, that I'm taking somebody elses place. ugh Got to stop thinking like that.

Well now I feel silly. I looked at the averages for acceptance in the Faculty of Arts and I meet those. I'm a silly goose.

People I've known have found it easier to get into UBC the second or third year after going to college rather then straight out of high school. Congrats!

Faculty of Arts? I thought you were into Urban Planning?
