Julia: U of T requires TWE>=5.0 Actuall I did think TWE is important. In the interview, the interviewee even said that my TOEFL is very good. However, I only got 253. The only thing you can say great is my TWE=6.0.
Didi: Don't give up. I was just declined by Queen's last week but I impressed the interviewee of Rotman by my optimistic attitude. Experience of applying Queen's help me get the Rotman admission.

Rotman does have strict policy for GPA. Iflu, did admissions ask something about your GPA? Or, did you write additional information for your academic record? What do you think make you pass the minimum requirement of GPA, 85%? Thank you .
I never calculated my GPA or explained it to Rotman. Just send the sealed report to them. My first 3 years GPA is around 80-81.
I did know that one of my friends was declined by Rotman because of the GPA around 80 last year, although he has a GMAT>=740. However, I also know that a Chinese guy, whose last two year GPA is 83, has been acceptted by Rotman full time MBA this year.
Rotman did ask for 85 in last two years to Chinese and Indian students. But I just gave a try. During the interview, the interviewee said that I was invited to attend the interview because my GPA, GMAT, TOEFL and experiences have met their requirements. In my point of view, they just tell you that GPA is a simply reason even if they have some other reasons to decline you.
