Hey guys!! Super excited to start applying! And I'm really glad someone started this forum up early because I'm already freaking out. First time applying so I'm really hoping for the best. GPA: 3.13 (Definitely my weakest point) in Public Health. I'm taking Genetics now and will be taking Biochem in the Spring so I'm hoping the grades will bump me up by any margin. One of my letters of rec will be coming from a professor that I had two classes with plus TA'd for and worked really closely with. Shadowing: I've been shadowing cancer GCs since last September. Hoping to ask the manager for a letter of rec soon. Advocacy: HIV/HCV Test Counselor since the end of March this year, will be doing this until the summer before GC school starts (if I get in haha). Also going to ask my program director for a letter of rec. Research: Currently working as a full-time clinical research assistant in genetic diagnostics. I just started this position a few months ago! I'm really hoping I'll have a lot to talk about if I can make it to interviews! GRE: Still need to take. Will be taking within the next month or two. Seeing all your great stats and experiences make me a little nervous about my own. Best of luck to everyone applying this cycle! We can do it!

Thank you for the reply! I do plan on working for a few years before returning for my DrPH, ideally in a clinical community setting. I know a lot of DrPH programs require a prior MPH but it's good to hear that a many students have non-MPH, relevant masters w/ work experience.

Hi all, Starting this fall, I will be applying to Genetic Counseling programs. Eventually, I would like to go for my DrPH. I'm highly interested in integrating public health and genetics together and doing research based on community genetics, screening programs, and the like. I know that I don't want a Ph.D. I feel that the DrPH is much more aligned with my goals. That being said, I don't think I would be applying to DrPH programs with an MPH, just my MS in genetic counseling. Would programs still consider me?
