"Congratulations! The Physics Graduate Admissions Committee has recommended you for admission to the Physics PhD program for the Fall 2018 term. You should receive an official notification from the College of Graduate Studies soon..." I am completely shocked. This is my second response and so far, all acceptances. Did an MS in physics at old undergrad university, ended with a 3.675 GPA, multiple conference presentations and now two publications in preparation. There definitely is hope for those with low test scores.

HEP-ex. Withdrew my application, got a much better offer than they are likely to give me (if they were to make an offer at all). Good luck, everyone!

Canada masters are hardest to get admission for an international student. The whole process is ambiguous.

I heard the last interview on physics department was conducted on Feb 25. However, if you are not invited, it doesn't mean it's a bad sign. Somebody mentioned that sometimes they don't interview at all. I had an interview a month ago for experimental particle physics, and haven't heard anything from them. I emailed a lot of times to their secretary, and she told me the admission process is still ongoing. So, don't be discouraged! Although, I am a bit depressed with waiting myself already
