hn90 I also got an offer for recommendation for U of A Health Promotion today!!!! Congrats! I am very, very excited but now I have a difficult decision to make!....
I also got an offer from UBC and I don't know what to do!
I like the sound of Alberta's program better and my inspiration for applying to public health programs in the first place was from talking to a U of A MPH alum who loved the program at U of A.
On the other hand, UBC also has a good program although it doesn't have the Health Promotion specialization. BUT it offers familiarity of the city and campus and the benefit of having family and friends close by (I am a Vancouverite and did my undergrad at UBC).
