Canada1 Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Hey, Just checking in to see of anyone has heard back from Uottawa MPH? Thanks,

I emailed them a couple of weeks ago and they said it would take 4-6 weeks to review applications. So this Thursday will be exactly 6 weeks since applications were due so I am hoping this week! They did originally tell me mid to late May so its hard to tell.

Thank you anyone who can help You can convert your GPA to a uOttawa GPA here: https://international.uottawa.ca/en/grading-system The uOttawa GPA system is a 10 point system but it may also be beneficial to convert it to a 4 point system as well. You can find the conversion chart depending on which school you are looking at here: https://www.ouac.on.ca/guide/omsas-conversion-table/
Gradthenmed Posted June 29, 2020 Author Posted June 29, 2020 Just letting everyone know that it looks like uOttawa made their decisions!

Can you do it for me my total aggregate is 67%. The grading at my dental college for bachelors was very tough. Most students got this average

The grading at my dental college for bachelors was very tough. Most students got this average Typically they convert each class to the average and weight it based on the amount of credits the class is worth. Being said, the converted GPA is typically different than a percentage GPA as different grades have more or less weight on the final outcome. From the percentage alone you would have a 5.0/10 at uOttawa or a 2.3/4.0.
