Any international applicants who have as of yet got any word from the UoA, applied for the MPH epidemiology specialization? As well as other tracks? Has any of the international applicants heard back?
I applied to the global health concentration and it’s been on “pre-screening” all this while

Same here. For which concentration you have applied at Alberta? My status is "Pre screening" since October, 2018.?
I applied to the global health concentration

But even in that my portal doesn’t show that it’s under review same with Alberta it still shows pre screening

I just received an email from usasks to submit my transcript today. Fingers crossed

Hello! A little about me:
I'm Brianna. I am finishing an undergraduate degree in Recreation Management & Community Development at the University of Manitoba!
My cumulative GPA (because of my first two years of Uni not knowing what I wanted!) Is around 3.5/4.00 scale.
My aGPA, while I haven't calculated yet, Will be far higher. I haven't received a grade in the past 60 credit hours below a B+ thankfully!
My statistics grade was B+.
I concentrated my electives in sociology courses, particularly the sociology of Health and Illness.
In my undergrad, I worked for a mentoring program for Indigenous youth, that addresses barriers to their participation in physical activity, development of healthy relationships + nutrition! I conducted a literature review of Mentoring in Canada underneath the professor who created the program.
I also worked for Big Brothers Big Sisters, and currently serve on their National Youth Advisory Council! I've been able to contribute ideas to youth policy at a federal level through this opportunity and travel within Canada
I volunteered in a harm reduction clinic, helping them find grants and funding they can apply to.
I am COMPLETELY uncertain if any of this and my experience could ever get me admitted to a Public Health program! I even feel sheepish creating an account here, as I know how extremely competitive and impressive most applicants are. But here I am!
I would love to apply to the Health Promotion program at U of A, the Community Development specialization at U of T, but am open to any school, really. Any thoughts on if I should bother this year? Thanks <3
Hello I'm also not so okay with my experiences, just the usual summer volunteer works cause I'm just about to round up my undergrad in public health and I'm just 19 but what I just want to say is you shouldn't limit yourself. Just try first and be hopeful, no harm in trying

Hello,
It's my pleasure I've also been wanting to connect with people so we can share issues.
So far my options have opened up and I'm looking away from U of Manitoba and facing U of Waterloo's MPH program, a friend also suggested MPH in Queens university and U of Guelph but I haven't been convinced, I'm also trying to find people already in the programs for their opinions and advice.

Hi, I will be applying also

Hello,
As Public Health applications will be opening soon (depending on when you're applying to of course) and being the thread for last year was already released months before this, I jumped the gun and thought a thread for us to discuss, share our thoughts, feelings, fears, and the trials and tribulations of Public Health applications would be helpful. I also find it helpful to know who's applying where I'm excited to start this journey and I'm hoping we all see acceptance letters/emails in under a year!
Schools/programs I plan to apply to:
UBC MPH
UBC MSc in PPH (already have my eye on a supervisor though)
SFU MPH
U of Manitoba MScPH
MPH Fall 2019 - University of Alberta
in Public Health Forum
