    You are most definitely a great candidate considering your professional background and achievements! You should be proud. Personally, this was my second time applying. For my first cycle, I only applied to 5 programs and got rejections from all of them. This time I applied to 13 programs all across the nation and have only received two acceptances so far. My advice to you and anyone else is never to doubt your experiences but, better yet, to apply broadly as it increases your possibilities of interviews/acceptances considering the enormous competition out there. Best of luck in your future endeavors! I’m sure your next cycle will be much stronger. Keep the positive vibes ?

    Glad I was able to help! Wishing you the best. I’m sure it’ll work out in your favor

    Hi! I am in a similar situation. I live with my partner who is in Med school and he will be doing his clinical rotations in the fall, and could possibly try to get his rotations done at a city nearby me but, the chances of that are low. Luckily I was accepted to a PhD program that is only 2 hours away from us. Personally, I would consider being close to my partner just because I have gone away in the past (for internships) and it was pretty difficult not having him around especially during stressful times. But everyone is different! I guess it all depends on first laying out all of your choices, weighing out pros and cons, and ultimately choosing what makes you happy. Hope I helped somewhat. Good luck

    Thank you yup! It was for epidemiology. A faculty member I am interested in working with actually reached out to meet via zoom. I’m not too sure if interviews are required for every applicant though.

    Just got rejected from Brown ?
  33. Littlefastpenguin
    Yes! I sent separate thank you emails to each person on the admissions committee. I think this makes it more personable vs a group email
