Congratulations! I’m in the same exact boat for UMD, applied after the priority deadline.
-
Nope, not yet. Hope we hear something in the next 2 weeks..
-
UMD is having the admitted students day event next week. I would reach out if you haven’t done so already. Good luck!!
-
I’m in a similar situation. I love my job and the pay. Going completely full time would be a significant pay cut for me. I have no desire to go into academia after my PhD. I also want to use my PhD to transition into a leadership position focused on research and program development. I’m currently in a position where I can get an hourly RA position (about 10hrs) for tuition remission but not sure if I can keep my full time job AND devote time as an RA lol while managing coursework. Although, I have a colleague that’s full time, full time phd student and a TA. No idea how he does it. Especially while traveling to another continent for work lol!

Thanks for the update! 6 weeks is cutting it close ?
-
I work for a major international health agency & I have several colleagues who are currently full time PhD students at GW, UMD, etc. I spoke to a few and they seem to be managing school + work fine which I find amazing. Is anyone considering working during their studies to help with cost of living?

JHU- IH Health Systems waitlist gang ?
-
I also applied over the weekend! With April 15th a month away, I wonder how fast they’ll let us know or if they’ll interview.
-
Anyone applied to GWs new PhD program in Global Public Health Sciences?
-
? Was this after you interviewed? I even sent emails and still no word.
-
Still no word from JHU Health Systems for me.
-
Thanks! Behavioral & Community Health ?
-
After a sea of rejections, I can finally say, WE DID IT JOE!!! ???? Just received my first ever PhD acceptance courtesy of UMD. Wow wow wow!
-
Did you interview?
-
I’m in a similar situation for IH - Health Systems. I emailed the Academic Program Manager last week and still no word ?
-
I also have not heard from them since I submitted my application last year.
-
Thanks so much for sharing this.
-
Wished they had space for more like some of the other tracks. Oh well ?
-
They had told me 15 in my interview but 2 positions is so little..
-
I interviewed late Jan so it’s also been a month for me. They’re also my top choice but I’m preparing for the worst. Already started crying my eyes out ?
-
Fingers crossed for both of us!
-
Same! I check my portal, my spam, inbox and GC religiously. It’s unhealthy at this point. I have a gut feeling we’ll hear something this evening.
-
I saw those too (but I don’t think those people interviewed) and I know someone in this thread mentioned being waitlisted this week. This is so so stressful ?
-
Is this also the case for the Health Systems Track? ?
-
Aw man ? when did you hear back?
