    I still haven't received my formal letter either

    Congrats!

    Hey @MI94, still in the process of figuring that out. You are probably better off reaching out to current students or alumni of each program who can really speak to both programs. There is also some insightful info from previous forums on GradCafe!

    Is anyone else still waiting on their formal letter as well?

    Hey Jeds, My letter said that I have 1 month from today to respond. Zoe also emailed to request that I try to let them know (informally) whether or not I intend to accept their offer by next week - I believe this is their way of estimating how many people will accept/how many more offers they can send out (I may be completely wrong). There was no mention of how many people applied to the program in the letter but I'm pretty sure I remember being told ~220 applications during my interview. I really hope you get some good news this week - your status is still under review so I think that's a good sign! All the best!

    Email & app status changed on the SGS portal

    Received the formal letter from UofT around 2 pm today

    Exactly! I’ve spoken to a few students from both programs so now it’s really just a matter of me reviewing everything I’ve learned again & deciding from there. Best of luck to you - from what I’ve been told “there’s no bad decision per se” hehe

    Thanks so much @RN_HI! I’ve done volunteering in a hospital as well as a summer placement in clinical research. I currently work at an HI start up (not in a tech role). My bachelor’s was in cell/molecular biology & economics ( random combo I know, I get it all the time lol). How about you? I’m assuming you’re an RN based off your username

    Thank you and yes, I think that’s a great idea

    Hey @jeds I do also have another preliminary offer from McMaster. Want to compare both final offers before deciding. I’ll try to remember to post if I accept UofT. Best of luck to you!!

    Thanks! Around 4:30 PM today

    Received an email today from UofT - they will be offering me admission (regular stream). I interviewed March 5th. Hoping everyone gets some good news very soon!!
  14. iakuasa
    ? Well kinda lol double major - cell/molecular biology & economics. How about you?
  15. iakuasa
    Nothing yet :( wait continues

    The written component was very fair - extremely straightforward question. I think as long as you have some general knowledge of HI you will be fine. As @jeds mentioned, the question is broad - I personally think that they aren’t looking for “a right answer” per se, just want to see your thought process. Best of luck with your interview if you have one upcoming

    Hi, I interviewed via Skype. I have no clue if it’s the exact same faculty members for everyone, but I will say that in a way I expected to be interviewed by the two interviewers I had - I had asked an eHealth alumni for names of potential interviewers, both of their names were mentioned.

    Also update: I just received an email that they are going to recommend me for admission to the graduate studies office. I interviewed today around 4 PM.

    Hi everyone! I just wanted to share some information I received during my interview: 1) ~38-40 Full-time students will be admitted (number admitted varies from year to year - dependent on the number of applicants). 2) ~ 6 Part-time students are typically admitted per year 3) They expect the TOTAL size of the incoming cohort to be approx. 50 students Wishing everyone the best of luck

    I agree 100%, I’ve been checking my emails frantically all week. Fingers crossed!!

    Hey I’m in-province as well, currently working full-time in Toronto (main reason why I was pushing for a Saturday interview lol). I applied to the course-based stream, how about you? Yep, waiting game it is - I also haven’t heard anything yet today.
  22. iakuasa
    Honestly, I do not know what the order is, but I dont think its alphabetical - think they’re considering various factors (ie international/in vs out of province applicants, etc). I was actually invited to interview on Feb 23rd but couldn’t make it because of other commitments (they only emailed me Feb 22nd). Since then, I have been waiting for a new date & time. I have confirmed that they are still interviewing next week, there were several applicants who asked for certain days of the week & stuff - hoping to hear back today about next week. I’d suggest following up if you dont hear anything today!
  23. iakuasa
    I am!
  24. iakuasa
    I believe a number of us are still waiting to be interviewed...I assume that explains one major reason why they haven’t notified those who have already been interviewed with admission offers
  25. iakuasa
    ...Honestly, I have no idea but I guess you could be right! We will have to continue waiting it out!
