That's interesting, I applied Epi and was under the impression that they weren't conducting interviews (for that track at least). If they are interviewing and I just didn't get one, oh well UNC for me it is then!!! It's weird to me that they would interview for some tracks but not others. I wish things were a little more transparent.

I don't think not hearing anything is anything to worry about at this point for Harvard. The PhD program in Population Health Sciences is the consolidation of the previous ScD programs, a few of which I know historically always released decisions in mid to late February. I would expect the timeline to be roughly similar, if anything later rather than earlier. I personally am not worrying until the end of February.

I submitted on Saturday 11/14 and haven't received any kind of e-mail receipt

Should be very strong. Really interested in cancer epidemiology and racial health disparities in cancer outcomes for breast and gynecologic cancers, so that's what I've been working on most recents. I bounced around a lot to figure out what I really liked and also to gain skills I think are relevant to all of public health. The end goal is a PhD program, however my mentor (smartly) advised me to apply to Master's and PhD programs so I leave my options open.Interested in: UT-Houston Epi PhD, Yale Chronic Disease Epi PhD, Harvard Population Health Sciences-Cancer Epi PhD, UNC MSPH-Phd EpiApplied: UT-Houston Epi PhD (Applied 10/18, Verified 11/2), Accepted: Rejected: Waitlisted:
