It has been an exciting and incredibly busy time here at the Vancouver campus as we are nearing the very end of the personal profile reading season! This year we have read over 47, 000 profiles compared to 35, 000 profiles this same time last year. This is absolutely incredible and only possible with the hard work and dedication of our readers. Our readers are hardworking Admissions Advisors, Enrolment Service Professionals, dedicated alumni and staff across the faculties and service units.

No one said that reading was easy but it is certainly rewarding and made easier with the amazing participants we are so fortunate to work with. Think of the impact that you have had as a reader this year. I personally appreciate your encouraging emails and positive comments that make this job a lot more fun!

As soon as the reads are officially complete we will be giving away gift cards as thank you gifts for everyone’s hard work. Keep an eye out for these in your inbox and junk mail. Also, our two draw prizes worth $1000 and $500 will be drawn very soon. All readers who have read over 300 profiles will qualify for the draw prize and every read counts as a ticket in the draw! An email announcing the winners will go out as soon as the draw is complete!

Many thanks once again for your ongoing dedication to this important work. It would not be possible without you!

Sincerely,
Carla Hodal
Manager, Applicant Services, Undergraduate Admissions
