If you wouldn't mind sharing, what was your application like? Sure thing, I did my HBSc from UofT in Life Sciences and I’m currently finishing up a graduate diploma in applied health sciences from Western. My undergrad cGPA was 3.5/4 and in the final 2 years it was 3.8. I don’t think schools use grades from outside of undergrad but I think my graduate diploma marks May have helped (90s). In undergrad, I did a capstone project on indigenous mental health. I did some volunteering as a screener at a hospital and volunteered at a local vax clinic. I had my research supervisor profs from undergrad provide my references. somebodysomewhere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mphstew Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I received my rejections from both UVic and Waterloo this week. I'm looking for advice on how to improve GPA post graduation. I've already completed my undergrad, so I'm not sure about how I can take courses now to improve my GPA further. Does anyone have any advice for a graduate diploma or some program that is online and doesn't require pretty much the exact same requirements as the MPH to get in? school4ever and Chris_mph 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can enrol as a special student and just take courses without getting a degree. But what's your GPA? And other experience? Maybe it's possible that there are other aspects of your application that could be improved to make up for a poor GPA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this is helpful but guelph has a graduate diploma in public health that is one year ish and I believe the credits/courses are transferable for their mph program I believe the gpa needed is just a B average!

I am doing a Graduate Diploma in Clinical Epidemiology (online, part-time) at McMaster. You could look into that as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
