Admissions to Concordia and Alberta

[ade1990]

Has anyone applied for graduate admission to University of Concordia and Alberta for Fall 2020. My Application status on Concordia portal states" Your file is being assessed and we will notify you when a decision has been made". I applied for a PhD with Undergraduate GPA of 3.2/4 and an MPhil with GPA 3.3/4. I secured a supervisor before submitting my application. When Do I expect a response from Concordia? I applied on 28th Sept 2019.
My UAlberta portal displays: "Admissions number, Student ID number and Application number. What is the explanation to these numbers? Application status: Pre-Screening, Decision Pending. Any explanations?

This is a question that is highly dependent on the university and you would likely be much better off asking them. Universities will generally not say when they will begin releasing results, but they may say that most applicants can expect a result by a certain time - but for PhD admissions, there are committees of faculty, staff, and students that have to meet and consider each applicant prior to releasing decisions.
