Also just received an acceptance at Minnesota (Health Services Research, Policy, and Administration). This turned out to be an eventful Friday for me. Hope others received good news today as well!

Just received an invitation to interview at University of Pittsburgh. I applied to the Health Services Research & Policy PhD program there.

And when I spoke to them I was told it was around 100 applications and they were interviewing the 20 folks on the shortlist. Hm.

I'm right there with you... This is painful!

I asked during my interview and was told within the next "few weeks". That was January 11, so maybe this week or next (I hope!).

I applied to the Health Services Research & Policy program in the Health Policy & Management department.

Nope... I haven't heard anything since my phone interview with JHU on 1/11.
