I'm awaiting a response from them right now. 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.

Thanks for the update!! 

 

Mine still says no decision has been made ?

It may take them a while to get through updating everyone’s profile. Still doesn’t say “rejected” so that’s positive!

for those waiting on guelph, the deadline to accept was last night so hopefully you should hear back soon!

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?

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?

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
