@pie333 UofA posted results where? Did you get your result on your portal? 

Congratulations for your admission.

Hi! I'm joining a bit late so much of this may have been answered. 

I've been accepted into Waterloo and lakehead (nursing stream) so far and Still waiting to hear from sask and uvic (nursing focus). I'm doing distance as I work full time. 

I'd love some insight into the pros and cons of each school. Any experiences you guys may have... etc

I haven't heard much about lakehead is it a good program?

Thank you so much! I hope you all get into your dream school!!!

I'm also unsure about lakehead and would love some feedback especially on the nursing stream. I'm trying to decide between lakehead and Waterloo

Congrats @pie333!!! Mine still says under review. This wait is gruelling!! But I guess we should know in the coming week or so.

U of A is easiest to see if you check on the Graduate admissions site rather than BearTracks.

Has anyone heard back from U of A's MPH in Health Policy & Management stream?

[NorthernGalMPHHopeful]

@peejthedeej the only people I'm seeing that have heard back from U of A MPH has been from Epi (or has been a rejection). With that being said i think it would be naive to think ONLY epi's have been offered admissions, but honestly who knows.

I got an email yesterday from them replying to a transcript action dying that if we haven't been accepted or rejected yet, that we will find out any day between now and the end of April...

Hey guys -- I contacted a U of T MPH (Health Promo/Social-Behavioural) program director and she said they have sent out the first round of offers, but that the second and final round will be sent in the first week of May. So don't give up hope! <3

this gives me hope, thanks for letting us know!!!

[Creme_Brulee]

I hope this will be the week we'll find out about U of T.

[wiffle]

Just checked in with UoA as well (so strange.. didn't get an email that results had been posted - did anyone else receive an email?)

Was fortunate enough to receive an offer to the MPH Epi program. Will be rejecting in favour for another offer. Best of luck to everyone still waiting!

I'm still waiting to hear from the U of A. My applicant portal still says under review and my beartracks says decision pending. I hope I find out this week!

just got rejected UofA. Lakehead here we come!

[mphalberta]

I just got rejected from the U of A as well. A little bit surprised as I had pretty great references, a 3.95 GPA (overall, and 4.0 in my last two years). I have a Bachelor of Social Work degree so I wonder how my background impacted my application. I've worked in a mental health promotion role in Alberta for about two years as well. 

I guess there's always next year!

Wow, I am surprised you were rejected with those stats! You seem like an ideal candidate.... I'd contact and ask how you could improve your application for next year because that seems pretty great already!

Rejected from U of A as well. Still waiting on U of T, U of S and if my position on SFU's waitlist moves.

Rejected from UofA MPH as well.

@lattes I'm in the exact same boat as you. UofT and UofSask are my last hope as well as I don't know if my position from SFU waitlist will ever move. 

By the way, which MPH specialty did you apply for in SFU @lattes?

[kobr]

Got an email from U of T today with a generic letter attached....Refused.

Good luck to all.

Oh wow, we totally feel each other's pain! U of A was my top choice so I feel pretty sad about being rejected. 

I applied to the Social Inequities and Health stream for SFU. I'm in position #3 on the waitlist which scares me a little because it could really go either way. 

[naynay]

has anyone that was waitlisted for Western's MPH hear back about an acceptance?

@lattes hey, how do you know what number you are on the waiting list at SFU? 

[WaitingforAdmission]

Rejected from U of A MPH health promotion. I hope they get back to me as to what I am not competitive on. If anyone here is accepted into this program I would love to hear about their experience and attributes.
