I saw somewhere on their website that for the MPH applicants, work experience really matters. But again it goes on to say that evaluation is done depending on one's GPA, SOP, Work experience and references... I have a friend who was rejected in 2017, reapplied in 2018 with a stronger SOP and was accepted. So maybe working on the SOP would help?? Plus of course early submission of application. The earlier the better. Long time lurker and first time applicant here! Why is the earlier the better? I always just assumed as long as it is submitted before the deadline it is all equally considered but is that not the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, please don't give up. It's too early to do that. Be optimistic. Good luck! duonggnguyen18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, ok, I may not know this but I've seen quite a number of universities encouraging early submission. I also believe that universities with rolling admissions review applications as they are received, so in this case first come, first served. For example if 2 people had the same profile and there's a place for one, and maybe one applied on the first week and the other on the last week, I believe the one who applied first would be given the chance. Just my thoughts. Lol! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, it's killing me too!!

Tbh I'm not too sure. It differs each year. Last year some heard back as early as the end of jan and beginning of Feb. I think we should be hearing from them very soon. I would give it another week or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe someone earlier in the thread said they talked to someone in admissions at UofA and they are estimating mid March to April for admissions. Maybe they're running a bit behind.

IndigenousHealth2020 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Has anyone applied to the Indigenous Health at University of Toronto? I haven't seen anyone talk about it much here!
