[Comfort]

Welcome.

This is a thread for fall 2021 prospective students applying for M.Sc. e-health  in the University of Mcmaster.

Who has submitted  their applications yet?

I though the application opens in November, or maybe I am wrong

Hi there! I just submit my application. For whatever reason the application fee was higher ($150) than the website said it would be so heads up to those submitting in the future.

Hey, any idea how many people apply and how many actually get the admit? I mean how competitive is the program.. I'm planning to apply too, but I'm from the CS background and my gpa is kind of average so Im honestly very panicky!

Hey guys! Am so happy I found this thread. I'm planning to apply too. However I'm facing issues with paying the application fee. And why is it 150$ I've no clue. Can anybody enlighten?

Plus I'm getting an Oracle PeopleSoft page after I attempt payment. Really facing a lot of struggle. Can anybody guide me through?

Hi Arun,

I'm supposing that you're a prospective student from India. I'm not sure about the doubt relating to IELTS that you raised. Try contacting the program administrator for the same. I'm stuck at the payment issue which I mentioned in my previous text box. Hope so it resolves. Stay in touch buddy. Wish you luck for your application!

Hi there, when I've applied to the program last year, I believe they've admitted 40+ students. They don't really release the number of applicants like UofT does. And yes, it can definitely get competitive.

How was your experience? Did you get an admit? Also were you an international student? Thanks a lot for the information. I can only hope for the best I haven't applied yet, any idea when they start the interviews?

I'm a local student. The interview was good to be honest, as long as you have the life and career experience you can leverage those as answers for their questions, you'll do fine.  And yes, I got the acceptance but went with UofT's MHI program. I believe I got interviewed either Feb or March, can't fully remember.

All the best
