My status still says document pending after uploading all the documents by the deadline.  Has anyone's status changed? 

I noticed mine changed a few days after the deadline. I had submitted my documents a few days early and called Zoe,  the program assistant, to confirm things were fine. She said 'documents pending' was normal and that things wouldn't change until they manually went in changed it... so I think you're fine? The office is quite nice so calling for yourself would not hurt, she just asked for my name and had a look right then and there.

Thank you so much! My status is still documents pending. I guess I will call the office just for confirmation.

Is anyone applying to the eMHI (executive stream) program at UoFT? 

[hanam]

My status changed to under review a few days ago. It seems from last years thread, that people should be hearing back for interviews shortly. I hope that I don't get a call while I am my vacation. 

I didn't apply to any other programs. 

Good luck everyone!!

If we are invited for an interview, will the invitation be made by email or phone? For out of province applicants who are invited, will they be required to travel to Toronto or will they be interviewed via phone?

Hey fleejy, reading through some of the threads from past years, I believe the invitation comes through email. Out of province applicants were able to do interviews over the phone it seems so I wouldn't worry about that, but check for yourself just in case.

I think interview notices should be coming out in the next couple weeks or so. I'm super nervous lol

Just finished up my application today... so nervous!

Anyone else with an undergrad that isn't explicitly health/business/CS? I'm little worried as my academic background seems a bit off the mark for this program (neuroscience). But a lot of my courses/projects had a lot of clinical tie-ins and my current work position is in health research with quite a bit of emphasis in EMR systems. Haven't done anything big yet but I'm also learning to code in my spare time. Good luck to everyone!

Haha don't worry, I'm in the same boat. I also studied Neuroscience but have a clinical/project management experience outside of my degree, and a little bit of a coding background too. Hoping it'll be enough, but who knows!

Anyone heard back about interviews from U of T yet? 

[hanam]

I haven't heard anything. I just checked my status and it is still under review. 

[NanBD]

Same. Although I think it'll say Under Review until after they've decided to fully accept/reject you, in which case it'll just change to Decision Made. About those interview tho... the silence is killing me slowly lol

Has anyone heard back for interviews yet? It seems that last year people have already heard by now  

[NanBD]

Nope, nothing yet. Anyone else?

[symbol96]

Nope. At this rate, we won't know if we're accepted until April...

[compactdisc]

[chekz]

I applied to the Executive program. My application is still showing under review.

[chekz]

Just out of curiosity, what kind of roles are people in this forum looking to land upon graduation?
