oh I wasn't told this at all! interesting.... I've already booked my tickets to Baltimore for March so March it is for me! Hopefully that will give me a better sense of the program and life in Balitmore sooner - so that I can make a decision sooner!

I just need to figure out funding but otherwise, I love everything about JHU so high chances that I'll matriculate. What about you? Currently looking into external funding just in case - anyone else has good resources for this?

I'm interviewing with them on Friday but for HPM - it's an 8:30 am to 5 PM affair, so I think all depts are probably involved?

Me too!! Hi new friend! Will you be going to their student admit day on March 8th?

eeeh but that means if you had an interview right? If no interviews, silent rejection?

yes! got accepted last Friday at Hopkins- had interviewed in early Jan with two POIs Depends which concentration though because I think they all work independently

I sent them to the profs that interviewed me! They might not have the time to respond but they'll at least see your message. One of them actually responded back (which I'm hoping is good sign!) But good call on sending it to the coordinator too - they do all the scheduling so will definitely appreciate getting the thank you.

Yes definitely follow up with a thank you email! It'll give you a chance to reiterate what you've discussed during your interview and add a point or two that you may not have had the chance to include. Also why did you put unofficially rejected at Yale for SBS? Is it because you didn't get an invite for interview day? I applied for HPM and haven't heard anything - is that bad news?

Just discovered this forum as well!! I'm not sure if this is helpful or panic-inducing (don't fret if you haven't heard back! I've heard that sometimes they just don't interview and you can get an acceptance without one - unsure if that's accurate, but really hoping that's the case for some of the schools I've applied to and haven't heard back from!!) My list of places I've applied to: NYU - PhD Health Policy and Management - haven't heard anything Harvard - PhD Health Systems (Global Health and Population) - haven't heard anything Hopkins - PhD Health Systems - interviewed last week with two profs! said they shortlisted 10 ppl for interviews. University of Toronto - Phd Epi (with Global Health concentration) - interviewed last weekend! Yale - PhD Health Policy and Management - haven't heard anything (I know interview day is in Feb and not hearing back probably means bad news? anyone applied to the HPM stream? The ppl that I know who've gotten interviews applied to SBS and Epi.... ) Brown University - Epi - haven't heard back (but I hear prospective student day is on the 25th so no news indicates bad news here?) Columbia University - Epi - haven't heard back McGill - Epi - haven't heard back (but they're known for replies very late in the application season) Congrats to all of you that have heard back and interviewed! And for those who haven't, just a note that you're doing great, that until you get some form of communication from the university, all is not lost - and there's plenty of opportunities to strengthen your application and apply again next year! It's not a race - everything will work out!! Hugs from Canada!

Yes! Heard back last week for an interview - interviewed last Saturday. It was very brief, and not a conversation at all compared to interviews elsewhere.
