Wish I knew this earlier . They must have changed it from previous years because last I checked they required either it or a similar test like the MCAT.

I looked into them and found that the major differences were: UVic = online program, no GRE required UBC = renowned institution, GRE required I choose neither in the end

@WaitingforAdmission I received an offer by email on March 22nd.

@hchan @heidiwind1, I received an offer from U of A health promo MSc in late March.

@Teochew I learned how to sell ice to the Eskimo and I was set. I have no experience in public health, I can take just about everything I've done in past few years and pitch it to them as if these are skills that transferable. Talk to a career counsellor about creating a cv that highlights this and you'll the idea will become very apparent if its not already. e.g. I land sponsorship for a charity event through awesome proposals, speaking in front of large audiences, and great applications. These skills could easily be applied to a public health research context for grant applications or addressing audiences. Research experience - volunteering and paid 4th year thesis volunteer manager for yearly community charity event and other volunteer stuff in community awesome references that you work closely with and maybe did more than just take a class or two with them See career counselors and they'll have shape up your cv and letter of intent

@Tahnin, I wish you luck! I'm sure good news is around the corner.

@Tahnin, it would make sense! Prospective students will reject offers and the schools will then give them out to the wait listed students who are next in line. To my understanding, programs usually have a limited number of seats they can give out.

@wiffle, I did. Thanks!

@mphalberta, The email was sent by the graduate programs advisor connecting me with my prospective supervisor. Cheers,

@mphalberta, Yes! Just an email, I haven't looked at their application website since I applied. I was surprised I got it cause I have not yet sent them any of the supporting documents that they requested. lol

@Mph17 For McGill and Alberta, I believe I'm expected to maintain the requirements based on my admission (minimum overall, graduation, etc..). No specifications about final semester expectations were given.

@yegMPH Health Promotion

Hey guys, It looks like Alberta is sending out offers for admission. I just got a letter of acceptance into their MSc. program! I won't be taking it as I have already accepted elsewhere but just thought I'd keep you guys in the loop! Cheers

Congrats to everyone who just recently got accepted to a program!

@L G, yes I accepted my offer and paid my deposit. I only applied there and Alberta, didnt even wait to hear back from UofA. lol @Motog@j12356, yes the deposit is 300$.
