And have you been in contact with any potential supervisors? Aha that's awesome! I think we should be able to hear them back around mid/late March or April. I'm so nervous.... I haven't reached out to supervisors. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UofA application is still in pre-screening and MHSc application at UBC is "in progress". I applied to MSc in OEH at UBC, and my status is still "submitted"?

He agreed to take me on but there's no guarantees since the program has so limited spots. I really hope we both get in! Is it your top choice?

SpiritedAway Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 FYI I inquired about the number of spots in the Lakehead program and was told, “we accept up to 50 students across both our MHSc and MPH Programs”. I’m not sure if this is evenly split into each speciality or if some specialities have more spots. Please share if anyone has more insight ?

Yikes ? they told me they typically get over 600 applications. Do you know if this includes online students as well or in-person only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I’m not quite sure the breakdown of online vs in-person. They were kind of vague and only said the 50. I had asked about MPH NP spots specifically and they couldn’t tell me as it depends on availability of clinical placements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we still will start seeing this week considering so many other schools have started to send them out. I don't think they can keep pushing back dates just because they extended the deadlines, just because they need to give students enough time to make arrangements, especially if they need to move to attend school or arrange things with work. At least that is my point of view, but WHO EVEN KNOWS ANYMORE ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schoolmph Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 On 2/21/2022 at 7:02 PM, TheTachyNurse said: I was thinking this as well! Both schools I applied to extended their deadlines for applications. I wonder if there was an extremely low number of applicants all around. I work in Public Health right now and I feel like many people are fearful to say they currently work in PH because of the hostile environment the pandemic has caused, so I would not be surprised if that deferred a lot of people's interests. ? a few schools I applied pushed back their deadline after I submitted my applications. My references think its because of low application rates TheTachyNurse and Riri123 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied to UofA and Lakehead. Lakeheads application was supposed to open already in October and it didn’t open until November. Then the deadline was set for January 31st and the last week the extended it to middle of February. I strongly believe enrolment was low most places hence the push back for a few weeks which is frustrating when you have had your applications submitted since November ?
