Yes I just received an offer from Queens as well today for MPH. That's Alberta and Queens so far, so I'm more hopeful for Toronto now!

Hey congratulations!  Would you mind sharing your stats?

Hey congratulations!  Would you mind sharing your stats? 

Sure! GPA is about 3.8, I've worked 2 summers in a retirement home as a Personal Support Worker and Charge Nurse, graduating with a BHSc, honours specialization in Health Promotion. Executive member on ButtOut! - a anti-tobacco advocacy club as well as very active in my sorority, Alpha Phi - most prominent role being the Vice President of Chapter Operations. Dancer on UWO Dance Force. Taking Advanced Health Promotion this semester and getting experience conducting a focus group, needs assessment, epidemiological assessment, social marketing campaign, evaluation and executive summary. That's all I can think of right now!

Also, anybody want to weigh in on the strengths and weaknesses of Queens MPH vs. Toronto MPH in Epi??

 

I get the feeling that Toronto is one of, if not THE most prestigious in Canada for MPH and I get the feeling Queens isn't as much. This is solely based on me reading these forums, so anyone else feel free to disagree with me!

My status has not changed online - it still says under review.  There was no official attached letter, either - just an invitation to the open house.

So is the open house invite only sent to those admitted?

I just got that email. I hope this means it is a real offer as it says it has to be approved by the school of graduate studies still.

My hands are sweating!!!!

Congratulations !  I feel like it definitely is a real offer - I don't think I've ever heard of anyone being recommended to the school of graduate studies and then not being admitted?  

 

Still nothing on this end .. ahh!

Please does that mean you will be rejecting SFU? Since no one else has heard from them, we may have a chance to get in. Congrats on your admission to U of T. :)

Still no word from MPH at SFU?

Yeah MTA. They said they've been having technical difficulties for weeks now. We don't know the nature of the technical difficulty nor when it would be resolved. Still waiting

That is SO frustrating about SFU.  Good luck to everyone still waiting - it will work out!

JUST GOT MY ACCEPTANCE LETTER TO UVIC!!!!!! GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!

AY congrats. I haven't heard from them. Please are you a Canadian or an International applicant?

Just called SFU A_G_A_I_N_ to follow up on any progress, "We are still working on it ( the so called technical problem), we hope we can start contacting applicants by email this week." Well, this has to be the longest week ever.... The SFU is my best fit and the only one I applied to, the waiting is sucking the life out of me!
