Sonal01 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 How about the status of univ of Saskatchewan? Is it showing any progress for anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lalamelon Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) Hi hoping someone may be in the same boat or has a similar experience i received an invitation to a telephone interview from U of T epidemiology im unsure if this common practice or what to expect. They’ve stated the purpose of the interview is to “make sure program is good fit for you” Any thoughts or advice?

But they do state this on their Epi application process page. Normally, telephone interviews are shorter than face-to-face/Skype interviews. They likely think you’re a qualified applicant, and found something from your application that needs some probing. Maybe go through your CV/letter of intent and be very clear on your expectations and aspirations within the program and from epi ad a field. Good luck!

Thanks! the fact that it’s uncommon and only done when necessary (according to website) is what’s making me nervous! Feels like I’m about to get interrogated! And that they used if program is good fit for me doesn’t sit well either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicc92 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Hi I just got a rejection for the MSc PPH program. Oh well, I don't think I will make it for the MPH either. Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a current MPH Epi student at U of T (will finish this April), and I know we never had to do interviews back when I applied. I guess things have changed! The GRE was never required/recommended back then either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniSabi Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 (edited) Did anyone hear from Waterloo or Lakehead? Edited March 3, 2018 by AniSabi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalsforgradschool Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 They said that if they haven't contacted you yet it's because you're most likely on a waitlist. I was told that I was placed on a waitlist and they let me know that they intend on sending out their second round offers soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well since I don't know anyone who did an interview, I'm really just guessing here but I suppose they would be asking the standard things like what made you apply, what you hope to get out of the program, and your career goals? I'm sure you'll have an opportunity to throw in some stuff about your skill set and how that aligns with the program's purpose and all. Best of luck!

Oski Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Also applied to UBC and UofT, still waiting to hear back! Did someone mention that the first round for UofT Epi acceptances were late April last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inkblaze Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 My guess is SFU MPH offers start this week, UBCs MPH offers start this week or the following week and UofT MPH offers (Health Promo) start in early to mid-April. I don’t actually know if this is the case but I think that would somewhat align with last year. thaniecs and openarms 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
