    pdf58 got a reaction from agillespie in MPH Canada Fall 2017   
    WOW  Congratulations! <3 I guess they are going to let us know earlier then! I am so happy for you! If you don't mind sharing, would you be willing to tell us a bit about your background, GPA, etc?

    Hey other U of T hopefuls. 
    I emailed the MPH department asking if I could hear a decision on my application before March 31, since I had a deadline to accept another offer + scholarship before that point. 
    They told me THE FIRST ROUND OF U OF T MPH OFFERS WILL BE SENT OUT APRIL 30TH. So now we have a specific date. *nail-biting*
    No worries for me though - the school that gave me my other offer allowed me to have until May 15th to accept. If I don't hear from U of T by then, I'll just accept the backup and change my offer later (though I really don't want to do that because that seems so unethical...).
    Sending positive thoughts to everyone <3

    Mallory, you have a great attitude! I'm sure you'll do well and get into a good school, since clearly you are a hard worker and open to feedback. I hope that even with a rejection, the admissions committee has useful advice to offer me for next year, too. 
    And thank you so much. Fingers crossed for us both!

    Yeah I've already mentally prepared myself for a rejection but I think I'm looking forward to feedback from the admissions committee so I can strengthen my application or next year.
    Good luck to you though

    UT requires mid-B, which is where you are at right now but there are just too many applicants each year. Since you only have few months of public health related work experience (many have years), it might be difficult for you to get accepted. Western MPH program is relatively new and less competitive so you should be able to get accepted with your current status. Memorial MPH program's application deadline is March 1st so if you would like to have that as a backup, apply.
    If you don't get into any of them, I would urge you to graduate and build research or practical public health experience instead of double majoring. 5th year is not necessary unless you really need to complete your degree. I would also advise you to apply to more schools next year.
