HealthPromo1 got a reaction from nerd80 in Preparing for MPH 2022 Canada
Wondering the same! I read in a thread from a previous year that the program has about 50 spots, and 40 spots on the waitlist. Unfortunately they don’t give any info on position on waitlist.
I noticed that some people were accepted on April 5, and then some waitlisted around May 5, so perhaps we will hear around June 5?

Anyone have any idea about the likelihood of being accepted off the Waterloo waitlist? I hear about movement for other schools, but nothing for Waterloo...

SFU waitlist has been activated! I have accepted my offer :') After 7 long years of undergrad, lots of tears and lots of failures- I'm going to be a master of something!!!
For anyone reading this - I got into an MPH program with a cumulative GPA of 2.89, stats grades of C- and B- respectively (2nd and 3rd year stats). But I kept at it- boosted my experience, expanded my network, conveyed my circumstances in my essay, and persevered. I am not a health care professional, nor am I a non-traditional student. But I still did it.
I know forums like these really can make people feel as if not having a perfect GPA will kill their application. But do NOT underestimate the power of your experiences. Your efforts will pay off one day!

Was anyone offered admission to Waterloo last week? I only heard about rejections and waitlists on here.

I got accepted to Waterloo! The offer on the letter is dated April 5th (yesterday) but I never got an email notification saying that I got an update. Thank god I checked the portal yesterday! For people who’s portal still says application I think you have to click on “masters of public health” and then the decision may show up there. Not sure if that helps!
Also accepted to U of A distance FT HPromo. Reject from UBC. Waiting on UVIC.

Certainly!
I have a BSc in Kinesiology and an BSc in Nursing as well as a Disability Management certification. GPA in my accelerated nursing program which was 19 months long was a 3.9/4.0 but I feel like they may have had to take one of the summer courses I did prior to nursing school into consideration so it would be more like somewhere between 3.8-3.9 for the final two years.
I have worked as a Public Health Nurse for 2 years, and I have previous experience in a sports injury environment. In my personal statement I spoke about how I started the Kinesiology society at my university, worked with an LGBTQ+ alliance team on my campus as well as with mental health initiatives such as Bell Lets Talk, and currently run the Wellness Committee for my team within Public Health. I do not have any research experience but a lot of my experience is within the field such as doing epi reports for our medical officer of health and creating documents and interventions for our community partners, so I really focused on that and spoke to what my long-term goal would be if admitted to the program which is focusing on health literacy.
I had 3 references, all from managers who I work with in Public Health. Because my nursing school profs are all nurses they were still dealing with the pandemic and were not actually teaching so it was hard for me to obtain a recent reference in that area but my managers have seen a lot of what I have accomplished in the public health sector so they were able to speak to my dedication and learning abilities in that area.
Good luck everyone! Good news will be coming your way - I can feel it!

That is okay! It could be based on when you applied or they could be going down a list, hang in there!! I am sure good news will come both of our ways.

Yes, I’m under review and mine shows a number. I don’t recall when that showed up. But fingers crossed ?.
I have a feeling Health Pro is going to be tomorrow! For no particular reason haha, just thought maybe they are releasing stuff every 2 days?
