UAlberta "pre-screening" folks: is there any hope left or are we all just waiting for a rejection?  Have our applications even been reviewed by the admissions committee?  Will they ever?  Will we go directly from pre-screening to rejected?  Did we get our references to write those letters for nothing?  Will anyone even read them?  I'm getting a tad bitter about this.

I've decided that I'm rejected. I think they probably looked at our applications but it never went under actual review.

Yeah.  I think I'm just going through the 5 stages of rejection.  I've made it to anger.

Hi everyone, I'm a prospective 2022 applicant gunning for an MPH Health Promotion at the UofA. 

I have a 3.4 GPA in my last two years, and I have a lot of work/volunteer experience in social sciences and two years worth of research experience (2 poster presentations, and a publication I hope will come very soon). Do I stand a chance in admissions? Thank you.

I’m under pre-screening for one stream and under review for the second. I don’t understand their methods and I wish they would either reject me or tell me when they’re gonna reject me ??

I've been under review since like forever. By looking at the trends from past years, I'm expecting a rejection between the 15th-20th of April.

My assumptions are just as good as yours honestly. I applied to health policy and I've heard that the cohorts are pretty small, so I would think that all spots would be full by now? My application is also not very strong so I will not be surprised if I receive a rejection. Just wish they would inform me in a timely manner.

For the folks who are accepting a U of T MPH offer, did you receive a confirmation from the graduate unit after you emailed your confirmation form? Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything!

hey!! i received a confirmation from the graduate assistant a couple hours after emailing my confirmation form!! (i applied to epi though and i see that you mentioned you applied to health promo so i'm not sure if it would be different for you)

maybe if you're close to the acceptance date and haven't heard anything at all from them, email one more time just in case for confirmation, but i wouldn't worry otherwise!!

When did people start getting acceptances for UofA?

Got update from UoA "Thank you for your application to the School of Public Health, University of Alberta. We appreciate your patience throughout this process. Many highly qualified students applied for admission to our department, we regret that your application to our graduate program was unsuccessful."
