"hardcore creeping" SAMEEEEEE. 

I had the same thought in mind regarding getting bad news in the coming weeks from McGill  Trying to stay hopeful that I get at least one acceptance but let's see ?

I'm gonna be SO disappointed if we don't hear from anyone next week. 

Thanks for letting us know! I'll start obsessively refreshing my email from now on lol ?

Congrats on your MSc offer from SFU! I guess MPH offers will begin soon after the MSc ones!

Yea that's true. I wish these schools had a date listed on their website to let applicants know when the first decisions will go out. Would make things so much better!

Nothing as of yet for me unfortunately. Really hope we get some news next week ?

This wait is definitely the worst part. Can't take it anymore !!!!!!

Thank you so much for such an in-depth response! I really really appreciate it  "I would be able to move out as soon as I graduate with my savings"...this really stood out to me! I guess a big part of my decision will also depend on where I get accepted, IF I get accepted. Thanks again, you're awesome!!

Hi. I don't know how useful my opinion will be since this is a case-dependant situation, but if I knew guaranteed that classes would be online for me, then I would not move out. For me, the pros of not moving out are: saving money (the biggest reason), being in an environment that I am familiar/comfortable with - especially with a pandemic (my home province/city), not many people living in my house (no noise), my parents don't hover (enough privacy + food is always there, mom does my laundry sometimes etc). Ultimately, though, if I'm already paying tuition, then I don't want to spend money on rent/food/travelling costs/etc. when I don't have to; also, for me, I would be able to move out as soon as I graduate with my savings (assuming online school continues).
Cons, of course, would largely revolve around lack of privacy and potentially feeling trapped after you've already gotten used to some level of freedom (or haven't and really want to); but with a pandemic this is almost universal. If you are in an abusive or toxic environment, however, the cons definitely outweigh the pros, in my opinion.
Restrictions in varying provinces could also sway your opinion. For example, if you're from Ontario, like me, and you have the opportunity to experience a "normal" life again (in BC, for example), then that may be worth it. 
Sorry for the block of text, but like I said, it's really case-dependent. Ultimately, you know what's best for you. 

Thank you!! I only recently graduated in June of 2020 so some of my professional experience is still but fingers crossed both of us get some good news in the next few weeks! All the best

This year is my first time applying to an MPH program and I hear it is quite competitive. You have a really solid academic and professional background so you're chances of getting accepted are higher than for example myself who is just finishing off an undergrad. Besides these two categories, your letter of intent is also an important document that the admission's committee will take into consideration. If there is another program that interests you, it wouldn't hurt to apply for that as well. This way you won't regret not applying in case you don't get into Brock. All the best!

I'm crossing my fingers for you!! You will probably hear back soon

Not a problem and don't worry, you are definitely not alone. I had a dream last night telling me that I should mentally and emotionally prepare myself for rejections because the date of decisions is coming closer lol! Try to be positive, have faith in yourself, and don't lose hope
