Hi, so I missed the deadline and thus now I don’t have a residence guarantee ( university college ). \u00a0I’m on the wait list. I wanted to ask what are the chances of me now getting a residence ? High or low ? Because I’m an international student so its really important for me to stay on campus. The residence people said they start sending out offers of residence to people on the waitlist by late June or early July. So should I start looking for off campus residences ? Or there are chances of me getting a residence ??!<\/span><\/p>\n

My situation right now is literally like HODOR holding the door while the white walkers tried attacking him. I’m freaking out. I didn’t know about the deadline. I thought June 1st was the deadline to submit the application.<\/p>\n

Looking forward to a prompt response<\/p>\n

Thank youuu<\/span><\/p>\n

i really wanted to answer this question with: hodor.<\/p>\n

but it makes me want to cry and being employed is great.<\/p>\n

once you miss out on that sweet sweet first year residence guarantee<\/a> it’s kind of hard to say whether or not you\u2019ll have a place to live.\u00a0i wish i was jojen reed so i could have a vision and tell you \u201cyes, you will get into res\u201d,<\/p>\n

\"jojen\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(btw if you haven\u2019t seen this video<\/a>, you should)<\/p>\n

but alas, like our lord commander jon snow himself, we know nothing.<\/p>\n

waitlists are super fickle and tricky to predict. if you\u2019re on the waitlist, UC residence services might try to set you up with an alternative option or redirect you to the appropriate resources. give them a call<\/a>, they might be able to give you more info about your situation!<\/p>\n

i would recommend you look through some other housing resources<\/a> just to be safe. https:\/\/offcampushousing.utoronto.ca\/<\/a> is great for housing for students. you can make your search very specific.<\/p>\n

these two websites are also popular when looking for apartments in toronto:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.viewit.ca\/<\/a><\/p>\n

for future reference: make sure to always always always always write all deadlines on your calendar and read everything very carefully. the university isn\u2019t exactly lenient on missed deadlines for most things.<\/p>\n

i\u2019m sorry you\u2019re in this situation and i wish i could do more than entertain you with GoT references but i really hope everything works out!<\/p>\n

also, i love that subtle \u201clooking forward to a prompt response\u201d…\u00a0ya well if by prompt response you meant several days, don\u2019t worry, i got you<\/p>\n

(we\u2019ve been going through some changes here at aska, bear with us, we\u2019re trying our best here)<\/p>\n

the lannisters send their regards, (last one, i swear)<\/p>\n
