Has anyone heard back from the U of T-MPH,Social and Behavioural Health Science? I'm in South Africa on a internship with the National Department of Health, so i can't check my mail. I am hoping for a application status update, or answer of any kind, via email soon. Edited April 18, 2016 by monvik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know how U of T's health promotion program compares to Albertas? Hi, My friend along with 2 other students in her cohort transferred out of U of T's program into U of As, specifically because she said their practicum program was better paid and had more opportunities within higher positions in Public health in comparison to Toronto's. Also, Apparently U of A's MPH program allows you to take the National Board of Public Health Examiners test for certification without having to take extra courses. But then again, this was her opinion. Edited April 18, 2016 by monvik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you explain a little bit more about your internship? It sounds very interesting! Good luck on your applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstarr001 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 So I've finally heard from Waterloo and it was a rejection, which wasn't so surprising at this point. I checked Quest and the status was updated. No email as of yet. My wait is over, but I'm happy with my choice of the University of Saskatchewan.

Hopefully we will be classmates in the Fall Have you heard about any specific information about the program? I'm from Toronto, so I am not that familiar with U of A. I'm also from the GTA and will be doing the program part-time online. I don't know too much about the program but I've heard good things from those who completed it. I heard there are good practicum opportunities and since it's an accredited by the U.S. Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) it has to maintain certain quality standards to keep this accreditation...so I think that's a good thing even if you're not interested in working in the States.

clhMPH Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I just got an unofficial offer from the MPH-epidemiology program at UofT recommending me for graduate studies!! Does anyone have any comments between the program at McGill vs. UofT? They were my top choices and I've been accepted to both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And1 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I also got accepted to the MPH Epi program at U of T, but I likely won't take it! So there will be another spot open for someone who's anxious to get in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically, it seems that DLSPH made their decisions, but it's up to the graduate studies department at U of T to roll out official acceptances. That will come in a few weeks apparently.

2016uoft Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I applied to UofT Epi - It seems like they sent out acceptance emails a couple days ago, but I haven't heard anything (acceptance or rejection) - Does this mean I have been rejected? Or does anyone know if they will send out another batch of acceptances/waitlists? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sillybird Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 For those of you who've been accepted to UofT Epi, what's your deadline to respond? And congrats! Good luck to everyone else in the same boat and still waiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The email said we will receive the formal offer within three weeks, and the deadline to respond will be two weeks after the date we receive that offer. So I'm assuming the deadline will be somewhere around 3rd or 4th week of May! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also mentioned in the email to notify the school of graduate studies if we intend on declining the offer already, since there are students on a waitlist.

epihepok Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Congrats to those accepted into UofT epi! I just hope the school at least notifies us that we're are on wait list; I didn't get any notice either like some of you have mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
