I applied for epi but haven't heard back yet. Expand Sorry- just seeing this now. For the Indigenous Health stream. I shared my credentials on the first page of this forum if you wanted to look

Expand Just curious if you ended up accepting Guelph or going ahead with UoT's Indigenous Health program? I've accepted the Indigenous Health and it would be nice to connect with other classmates if so
denki Posted May 11, 2020 Posted May 11, 2020 Hey y'all! Got admitted to U of T's MPH in Epi a little while back. Looking forward to seeing everyone in september :) Weird question and only a handful of you probably are going to understand, but is anyone down to make a team for clash?
sha47 Posted May 11, 2020 Posted May 11, 2020 Hey Guys! I just wanted to let you know in case anyone's waiting on SFU: I got accepted to their MPH on Friday from the waitlist (I was #3 out of 15). I don't know if I plan on accepting as I'm from Ontario and am hoping I get in either Queens or Western as I'm on the waitlist for both and that way I can stay closer to home. Congrats to everyone who has been accepted and good luck to those still waiting!
my.mph2020 Posted May 11, 2020 Posted May 11, 2020 Congrats to everyone who's received their acceptances! Has anyone recently received an update from the Waterloo MPH Program? Also, is there anyone who's applied to the Ottawa MPH Program as well?
Jony Posted May 11, 2020 Posted May 11, 2020 Anyone else waiting for an update from McMaster global health?

Could you list a couple things that you like and dislike about the program? Expand Like any school, there are pros and cons, and my experience differs from that of my classmates. PROS -Small program (~36 of us), so we've grown close -Lots of involvement (PHSA, work-study, intramurals, clubs, research, conferences, events) -Some faculty are very transparent with and openly offer support to students -Our practicum coordinator has worked over time to accommodate everyone whose practicum was either cancelled or changed due to COVID-19 -Epi core courses cover a diverse set of topics and prepare us for hand-on work CONS -Some faculty don't seem as supportive; they're focused on their work more so than their teaching (but you'll find this at any school) -Some classes in term 2 didn't assess us in an accurate manner (circumstantial; new prof teaching the course) -Fewer practicum opportunities in Ontario, compared to the previous year (due to the provincial gov's funding cuts) -The university itself is big, so navigating UofT services can be difficult or overwhelming (but the graduate population is much smaller than the undergraduate population) I hope that helps!

SC20 Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 For those going to Waterloo MPH - will you be working during the program and if so... how many hours with the full time course load? Thanks for any insights!
MPHhope Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 Just FYI, I received acceptance to McMaster's Global Health just now. I have until May 19th to reject. It is not my #1 choice (Waiting on UofT Epi...), so might be rejecting and wil update when I do.

I hope you hear back from UofT soon.
