good day Dam, so what was your profile like?

[HPRO]

This might be a silly question... But do universities still send out physical acceptance packages in the mail or is that just an undergrad thing?

Yes! My cGPA is a 7.2 on a 9 point scale but my GPA for my 3rd year is an 8.3 and my projected 4th year GPA is an 8. I got an A+ in my statistics course as well. Also, make sure you have a copy of the statistics course syllabus so it outlines the specific subject matter you learned as you need to submit that as I learned the night before, haha.

My acceptance and a couple of my friends acceptances were online only.

Nope! I just got e-mailed "A decision has been made." and in the School of Graduate Studies Portal, there was my online acceptance package.

Ok thanks that's a great tip!

I'm just finishing my Statistics course this semester and will likely end with an A (although A+ is in reach so never know). I am doing an accelerated Health Policy degree in 2 years  (I have a previous BSc from over 4 years ago where I had poor grades) and my cGPA for this degree is 8.6 so far so I'm hopeful everything I've done lately will make up for the past!

Congrats again :)

Domestic or International?

Hey guys! 

My name is Taylor and this is my second round applying for masters of public health. Right now my living situation is up in the air so I exclusively applied for MPH at Lakehead. I applied there last year so I can kind of shed light on timings. I got put on the waitlist last year and didn't hear back until April for a decision of a refusal. I was pretty close to getting in on the waitlist but unfortunately did not make it. I believe the first acceptances went out early-mid March.

Whats your profile?

I graduated from Nipissing University with a BSc in Psychology, Minor in Biology and a Certificate in Neuroscience in 2017. I spent three years of my undergrad working as a lab assistant and eventually ended up doing my thesis in that lab as well. I also spent three years of my undergrad participating in societies, clubs, and volunteering. I was a TA for a year too. I went to two international conferences for my research. I did two full years of statistics courses and during my years in the lab ran data on my own experiments as well. My GPA took a fall in my third year due to personal circumstances but I remained at a 3.8 GPA for my second and fourth year. My GPA was 3.4 in third year but I've appealed that year in my letter of intent to the school.

 

Hope that helps a bit!

Hey! Has anyone heard from UofT’s OEH program? I had an interview last week and they said they would get back to me soon. Just wondering if anyone else has heard back from them. Very nervous and hopeful.
