  1. My bad. Alright! so I never approached a PI because that would have narrowed down my chances of getting selected. But the school I applied had almost all PIs with a similar area of interest. My piece of advice from masters GRA position- Try to contact the PI via email and write an impactful subject line (in order to avoid getting your mail in spam folders). Research about their lab and maybe try to connect with one of the members already in the lab (bonus). If not email and in the closing email signature provide a link of your LinkedIn and/or link to your research profile like google scholar or researchgate or few of your cited published work. (it is easy for PI to just click on the link to judge you and see you without calling you for face to face conversation. No essay writings because PI's hardly would go through the entire thing (personal experience). Google impactful emails for position inquiry or request to get an idea. If you don't receive a response in a week, follow up every week by replying to the same email you sent (so the PI knows you are genuinely interested.) Hope this helps! Good Luck!
  2. Opinion from a recently accepted PHD candidate with full tuition waiver- GRE-302 four years old score MPH in united states with couple research publications and GRA work experience First, come to the grounds in terms of your research interests. What topics interests you? Then filter the PIs accordingly. Develop your resume according to your interests i.e what research work related to your research area of interest have you performed or maybe work experience of any sort relevant to your research area of interest. All that a PI cares is are your interests corresponding to thier research interest? if not they would straight off say NO and reffer you to relevant department. PHD is all about research area of interest. PIS dont want to work with candidates in thier lab with completely different set of mind (research topic). Moreover you need not be sounding competitive as every lab has team work, so in your interview PI would specifically see in person or video calling if you are a perfect fit since you will be collegaues for atleast 5 next years. Hope this helps.
  3. A- if they are offering in India than it has a limited validity. Because imagine why would a university offer (that too highly competitive apparently) outside its own mother campus? Couple years back Nirma university provided PharmD courses which are no longer valid in states. In terms of Canada, they would basically look for people who have exposure outside home country while studying. (Not 100% sure but speaking experience wise) B- You might want to check what is the accreditation of the program? In states, the university is CEPH accredited. What is the program in India accredited with? Just so you know JHU is expensive so you might as well consider the tuition factor before enrolling. Invest wise!

  7. Hello Members, I was recently interviewed by the university of Louisville, and I am concerned in terms of fundings if any? Do they provide stipend to international applicants and if so how much? Thanks in advance.
