Hello All - USask MPH Applicant - 3.7/4 GPA (3.9 or something in last 2 years... full disclosure.. these are just calculated using random internet sites from percentages) with a strong profile of community involvement and work history, maybe moderate research background. It's the only one I applied to because I want to study in Sask.
Still waiting - but from the looks of it acceptance emails or letters went out around the 9/10 of March last year.
To the person who was debating USask vs UBC - USask just posted a profile of a 2014 graduate who is already the Manager of Public Health services for a rural health region, after a year in a supervisory role....cool. Honestly I would choose based on city. USask's program has a great reputation, and basically anything with UBC's name on it is automatically considered gold. Saskatoon is a wildly neat city with extremely cold winter weather, dry, beautiful summers and medium-high rentals, obviously Vancouver is amazing - and is warmer but rainy, cloudy and super expensive.
