Hi everybody, I was rejected in the three schools i applied to, for this fall MPH program. It was nice being in this forum with everyone. I learnt new things that will make my application stronger, if there will be a next time. I hope not. I just applied to a different health related program in U of S for this fall. I am already seeing a green light from a potential supervisor. Wish me luck!

Wow Congrats Carolyn. Am soo happy for you.

Uvic sent me an email recently asking me to continue to be patient. All MPH applicants will know their status near end of May. I hope I get in, after all these months of anxious waiting!

Please does anyone knows if UVic MPH program ever sends rejection email to candidates if rejected, or they just keep silent. Am tired of waiting, i keep mailing them to know when exactly all decisions would be made, and i keep getting exactly the same response that the committee are still reviewing applications and decisions would be forthcoming. They never give me a specific date. I don't like that attitude at all. If am rejected they should go ahead and tell me that, instead of 'posting' me. Its not just fair!

Please has any international applicant heard from UVic yet?

Congrats!

UVic, how long shall I wait on your decision? Am getting tired and angry.

Hello S24 Unfortunately, I haven't seen any MPH program starting in January. But there are other health related programs starting in January, such as Pharmacology. U can check out Msc Public Health at SFU, (its different from their MPH program), I think it has January entrance.

Thank you. But for January 2014, try and diversify your portfolio. Apply to at least 2 more schools, aside SFU!

Ok. Thanks so much for the information.

Good luck to you! Am still waiting on UVic, they haven't told me my admission status.

you dont have to give up at this point, something good might still come out of it. Inquiry from your school asap and know when they will send it. Then reply SFU accordingly. If they wanted to reject you on that basis, they will. but now, they are not. they are interested, the ball is in your court to make this happen. talk to your school and make them send it next week. Good luck to you. I wish you will never give up, till you know the end of it. It's never over, till its over!

Ok. you really have a wide range of options to choose from. Thank you. I wish you good luck too.

Oh really, am sure your decline will get someone in. I guess you will be going to SFU. A friend of mine got a graduate fellowship yesterday from SFU MPH program. What about you? Have you got any funding yet from SFU?

Sorry about that Kmila. Do you think there was ever a wait list this year? I never heard they placed anyone on wait list.
