  1. Wait what, I’m just curious about JHU. I was thinking of applying for PhD in International Health but never did. They seriously don’t offer full funding? Do they cover tuition but not living costs? Or how is it exactly? I find it insane that a #1 public health school doesn’t offer full funding for PhD students, wow!
  2. Emailed them yesterday. Haven’t heard anything!
  3. To people who interviewed with UCSF Global Health Sciences PhD program - has anyone heard back?
  4. Also waiting to hear back. Interviewed with them in late January and they said they will try to let us know by the end of February (which is now!). I think they are scrambling for funding. If you hear anything let me know!
  5. That's odd. I'm going to the BU Health Services Research PhD visit day on Friday and as much as I know from chatting with the program director, they guarantee to fund all students for 4 years (through grants or RAships). And he said that they expect 5-8 people to join the new cohort.
  6. Wow, you only applied to one school? That's brave!
  7. I'm wondering what they meant by an on-site interview though. Did you apply for Health Services Research or Epidemiology? I don't know about the epi program.
  8. Oh, I see! I guess they are keeping some people on hold. I remember from my chat with the program director that he said that they make the final decision from the Prospective Students' Day pool. But I guess if many people turn them down or we turn out to be weirdos, they would reach back to the interview and pre-interview pool. Fingers crossed for you!!
  9. Two updates: 1) Boston University sent out their Prospective Students' Day invitations that will take place on February 15. As much as I know, they will make decisions from this pool, so if you did not have an interview already and were not invited now, it probably means bad news (Health Services Research program). 2) I contacted the Harvard Health Policy program admin asking if they had already sent out all the interview requests, because it was getting late, and she said that yes they had. So that probably means a rejection. ?
  10. Hi! Congrats to you too! Same program? Is it perhaps because you are located in California? Did they offer travel reimbursement? I'm in Boston so I don't know why I didn't get that option. Hmm...
  11. Just received an interview invitation from UCSF Global Health Sciences Ph.D. program. It's an online interview though, which is a bit disappointing. Would have loved to see the campus. Does anyone know if they normally invite students on campus?
  12. Received a phone interview invitation from Boston University (Health Services Research PhD program) a couple of days ago. The lucky ones passing that round will be invited to the Prospective Students' Day in February.
