I just finished the last of my applications today! I applied to 5 different MPH programs, and 1 NP program. Such a long journey, and now the waiting game officially begins.
I'm a Registered Nurse, in BC, so my bachelors degree is a Bachelor of science in Nursing.
I have experience in both acute care, as well as community and primary care environments.
I lived and worked with a small American based NGO in Haiti for 6 months, in the treatment of childhood malnutrition.
I've done a small amount of research work with the Canadian Cancer Society.
Academically, I have a 3.5 GPA overall, 3.8 only counting last 2 year upper level courses. Everything is so competitive, so I am hoping my well rounded experiences will help cancel out the fact I'm not the strongest applicant academically.
I applied to MPH at
Queen's
Western
University of Toronto: Health Promotion stream
University of Ottawa
University of Victory
I also applied to the University of Toronto's Nurse practitioner program, Global health option.
Good Luck to us all as we wait to hear back!
