PhDphfinal

Thank you so much. I agree with you about the wait list and crossing paths with the faculties from first school.

Hi all. I have a question for my friend who is not on this forum. He got accepted to a university for PhD in epidemiology. Offer was good and faculty he was planning to work with kinda persuaded hum to accept the offer. Now, he got a much better offer from another university. Are there any legal issues if one first accepts and then declines the offer. TIA

Thank you. Hope I hear from them too

Hey, congratulations on the arrival of little one. If you don't mind me asking, are you an international student? I was accepted to UNC MCH too. But, no funding offered to me as yet. I am an international student. So, just trying to understand. Thanks

Hey. Thanks a lot. Will be writing to the admin of my department.

Hi. Congratulations. I got acceptance letter almost a month back and haven't heard about funding yet. So, I am bit sceptical about mine. Are you an international student?

Thank you so much for the detailed reply. Right, international students cannot establish in-state status after an year. MCH program doesn't seem to be good at funding too. So, my chances of joining are scarce too. You mentioned about expense paid visit. What does that mean. I am sorry not versed with many such terminologies

Hi. Congratulations! I got accepted to UNC too. But MCH program. Did they send you funding info along with admission letter/ offer? I just got the acceptance letter. They said that funding was very tight for the program. I am still not sure about making my final decision. I ma an international student.

Thank you so much for the detailed response. I really appreciate it. Yeah, I have been planning to reach out to the current students to get the perspective.

Hi all I have a question what would be the wise decision. To go for a fully funded like for four year program with university at rank 20 or with funding confirmed/ expected only for only first year from one of the top Universities. TIA

Hey. Thanks. 2 weeks back. I believe they send decisions on a rolling basis.

Hey.. Likewise.. Haven't heard back about funding.. I am really surprised at the funding situation. It's top university and they seem to be not so good at funding. And I am an international student, so it gets even trickier

Hi all Just joined this forum. Anyone accepted to PHD MCH Gillings UNC? Got accepted to USF CFH and UNC. Just looking for folks. After three years of efforts.
