Congrats!! Just curious about the mac program I heard there's alot of in person classes? So meaning whoever gets in would have to move if they don't live in Hamilton

Hey all-- I have gotten into Mac and U of T for the MN-NP programs-- I am really having a tough time deciding which to take. Has anyone heard anything that has swayed their decision in one way over another?

The program at U of T sounds great, but the tuition is astronomical. Folks I have talked to at McMaster seem to really not enjoy the program, but tuition is half the price of U of T. Would appreciate any insight/thoughts.

I chose McMaster , since it's part of the Primary care consortium of universities teaching the same  primary care- focus  circculum , u of t is not part of that. . McMaster also gives generous entrance scholarships vs u of T.   However u of t is mostly online 
 


 

 I am curious - what did your friends say regarding McMaster's program they didn't like?

yes-- I know that U of T isn't (which maybe is why tuition is so much more!?). Based on the admission letter I received, it sounds as though they are focusing their program toward PHC this year as opposed to streaming it into specialities (eg: adult/child). You are right re: entrance scholarships! 

Those who I have heard from just found the layout of the program (which I suppose is the same across the consortium) to be disadvantageous to application/retention of content. As well, they found the school itself to be quite rigid. 

Thanks for the link to the consortium page-- do you know if there is benefit to graduating from a school within the consortium versus a school outside of it?

Appreciate your insight and comments 🙂
