Also has anyone heard about the UoG Msc in population health (public health stream)? I’m considering applying but i feel like there’s not a ton of information online Expand I'm waiting on Western still! The website says April-August, though some people have gotten offers. Also!!!! I applied to that exact program and stream and there's literally no info online! I'm still waiting on decisions but the prof I was in contact with seemed really excited about working together. So currently, I have no actual information on the program besides being super excited about possibly being accepted

mph21 Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Congrats to everyone who's heard good news today and best of luck to those who are still waiting! I'm wondering if anyone here has also applied for OGS? Are we expected to accept an offer before knowing whether or not we were selected for a scholarship? I'd be happy to go to any of the schools that I applied/got accepted to and my expectations aren't high anyways, but ngl I'd be pretty gutted if I found out I could've gotten financial support at another school. Wish they notified at the same time as the offer of admission ?

Expand I did my undergrad at Guelph and got a BAS in biology and psychology. I did a science communication research project after graduation with one of my old profs. I'm currently a content review and science communication manager for a youth-led public health organization on Instagram and I've been doing that since last June. No journal pubs or anything like that My cumulative GPA suffered big time from my crappy first year ? Definitely you can see the uphill climb in my transcript lol but finished off pretty strong in my last two years. At least, I thought it was strong until I read everyone else's stats! I applied to Guelph (MSc Population Health) and Western MPH. I'm throwing in another application to UOIT (MPH) since I just learned their deadline is extended to May 1st. My first choice is definitely Guelph though, because the professor I was speaking to was really excited to work with me! Hoping that pulls me through lmao

Expand Thank-you! I applied for the distance learning/part time option. As far as my stats go, I completed two Bachelor degrees - one in Biochemistry with a 3.0 GPA and afterwards a Bachelor of Technology in Environmental Health with an 85% GPA (only a two year program). I obtained a Certificate in Public Health Inspection and have been working as an Environmental Health Officer for the past 3 years for a local health authority. Since the pandemic began, I have been heavily involved in contact tracing and performing covid-based inspections of various facilities. I do not have any research experience but I have gathered over 150 volunteer hours at two different hospitals. I had references from a manager and supervisor at my public health unit and one reference from a professor. Hope that helps! Edited March 26, 2021 by Vlaz
