Anyone applying to McMaster ehealth program in Fall 2019?

[sufz]

Hi guys, I've also applied to this program and received the initial interview email about a week ago, but still no email regarding a specific interview date. Is there anyone else who hasn't received an email regarding a specific date/time for their interview?

The email stated that they think that I'm a good candidate for the program and they will be in touch for an interview

Hey Mary! Would you mind sharing what kind of questions they asked in general? From last year's thread, was it still 5 questions with multiple components? Also, did they ask about any ehealth topics? Thank you! 

Hi, mine had 6 questions and each had only one component. 4 were general questions and 2 were somehow related to ehealth. Good luck!

Yeah, I had received a date but couldn't make it because of other commitments that weekend. Since then I haven't heard back - I will probably follow up tomorrow.

The original email said theyll send out all interviews within the next few weeks and since you said they scheduled your interview on a weekend, I guess the interview thing will prob last until the end of March.

Hello guys,

...Honestly, I have no idea but I guess you could be right! We will have to continue waiting it out!

Hi guys, 

I received an email on February 22nd inviting me for an interview on February 23rd. I wasn't able to make it and I haven't heard anything from Iris since..I've emailed her and called her so I think they must be in the midst of setting things up.

Has anyone heard about the decisions? Last year some students received the email within a few days after their interview.

HI! Nothing yet. They take too much time to give the answers. At the end of the interview, I asked them about the time of decisions, they told me I have to wait at least 3 weeks. My interview was Feb 27.

I believe a number of us are still waiting to be interviewed...I assume that explains one major reason why they haven’t notified those who have already been interviewed with admission offers

Do you know if they're going in some type of order for who is interviewed first? Like alphabetical maybe? Because I received the email regarding interviews on Feb. 19, but I'm still waiting for an actual date.

Honestly, I do not know what the order is, but I dont think its alphabetical - think they’re considering various factors (ie international/in vs out of province applicants, etc). I was actually invited to interview on Feb 23rd but couldn’t make it because of other commitments (they only emailed me Feb 22nd). Since then, I have been waiting for a new date & time. I have confirmed that they are still interviewing next week, there were several applicants who asked for certain days of the week & stuff - hoping to hear back today about next week. I’d suggest following up if you dont hear anything today!
