Just letting everyone know, sounds like they have started reviewing applications this morning at U of T.

I have a friend who was just accepted off the wait list this Monday!

Hi everyone, This question is for any current UofT MPH students (preferably health promo). This is the only active forum and hopefully someone will see this! What is the workload like? I've been looking at timetables and it seems that there will only be about 9 hours of class in 1st semester. Is it similar to undergrad with the amount of studying outside the classroom? The reason I ask is ultimately because I want to get a job while at school and I'm worried I won't have time. Thanks!

Just accepted Toronto's Health Promo offer. Rejected Queens HP yesterday and will be rejecting Alberta HP today so a few spots should open up!

I know for health promo I haven't even received my official letter in the mail yet. So if Epi is the same situation, I don't know about wait list offers going out this week because 1st round people haven't had the chance to accept yet. Probably a few will accept/reject right away because the official letters SHOULD be coming this week, so maybe a few offers will go out Good luck!

Anyone who still may be waiting the official letter from Alberta, I just received mine today so you should get yours soon!

Wow you sound very accomplished! I'm surprised you didn't get in. I got accepted with a 3.8 GPA, in a Health Promotion undergraduate degree and other stats as well but I feel like yours are just as, if not more applicable than mine. This makes me think that they really must rely on the LOI... but I'm still shocked.

Cost I believe

Yep just got an email today saying I was approved by the Faculty of Graduate Studies and my status has changed on Bear Tracks to "conditional offer".

I personally will be accepting, but I know a girl in one of my classes who plans on rejecting and going to Queens.

Haha you got it! Dr. Irwin is great and after taking her course I feel so prepared!

No mine didn't!

Mine is under review as well and I wasn't interviewed... I couldn't interview anyway because I am out of province. On a happier note, I've been accepted to all three programs I've applied to, Queens, Alberta and Toronto all health promo. I'll most likely be going to Toronto depending on finances. Good luck to everyone else and hang in there!

I get the feeling that Toronto is one of, if not THE most prestigious in Canada for MPH and I get the feeling Queens isn't as much. This is solely based on me reading these forums, so anyone else feel free to disagree with me!
