Hi

From what I know, there has been little movement in the UCGS waiting list this year.
The child who was number 10 on waiting list (by rank order) only received an offer a few weeks ago.
What position is your daughter in the waiting lists? (By rank order and by distance)

Also, bear in mind that the distance waiting list moves even less than the rank score one.

Hi

Thank you for your reply.
My daughter is in waiting list 1 as distance order for UCGS and waiting list 3 in Langley grammar and 3 in Herschel too.
I am not getting the waiting list process for the schools. Literally waiting for some response from the schools

It really depends on whether someone in any of those schools gets a higher preference offer now. If someone leaves,the school will contact you with an offer of a place.
Bear in mind that you need someone who was allocated a place under the distance criteria to leave.

If someone who was offered a place under rank score leaves then your daughter may not be offered a place as there will be others with higher scores.

Hope that makes sense?
All the best
