gc21

Hi @HettyFan Yes i have accepted the offer for mph program in pitts and I will be starting this fall. Rejected by SLC as well. I guess my application was not that competitive given the fact that i didnt had enough experience.

do you anyone in public health genetics program?

@weilongli1 i mailed the director and they replied me with the rejection letter. But my acceptance to public health genetics program is still valid. So i will most surely be joining for mph program in upitt itself and try again for ms gc next fall, which i am sure i will get into. Also i still have interview at slc so i have a chance there as well...........happy

why isn't upitt replying??

rejected from jhu still waiting to hear back from upitt

hi @HettyFan yes i would be interviewing to slc via skype. and probably to others colleges as well whom i haven't heard back from

didn't hear back from jhu and upitt yet...getting worried

Hi everyone, congratulations to those who have made it to the interviews. Within 24 hours of getting rejection letter from wisconsin, I got interview from slc. I booked for 3/22 and have requested for skype interview. It has been 5 days and they have still not replied. This is my first time applying to slc, jhu, upitt and wisconsin. Here is my profile GPA - 3.3................final year biotechnology undergraduate GRE - v 155/ q 165 / a 4.0 toefl - 102 I have two months of shadowing and counseling experience. Active in sports and loads of voluntary work. No particular advocacy experience but i am currently working on educational development by team games with very young children from poor families. I have excellent recommendations. I also have 2 months of experience working as lab assistant in hematology, microbiology and histo-pathology laboratories. As a six month project i am working with several families affected with a rare genetic condition, doing both counseling as well as mutation testing and risk analysis myself. I have also attended about 5 national and international conferences about genetic counseling. Having so little opportunity to learn genetic counseling in India since there is no formal training in entire country......this is the most i could do in four years of my under graduation. I hope all this qualifies me for the programs. and nope....didn't hear anything from jhu and upitt.... slc hasn't replied on my email.

congratulations guys. After reading all your messages i was waiting to hear from wisconsin. Unfortunately i did, and got rejected. Feeling so disappointed.

hi everyone, greetings from INDIA.....i am so happy to find people applying to the same programs as i am. i have applied to 4 of them which are slc, upitt, john hopkins and wisconsin. I haven't heard back from any of them yet. So anxiously waiting as of now....is there anyone else here who applied for dual program at upitt. I applied for gc and public health genetics there and have got letter of acceptance from the public health department. So now i badly want a call from upitt
