I received it as well. I think it is most likely a poorly timed/worded mass email

That’s what I was thinking. Mass email mistake.

Did anyone else receive a welcome letter from BUSPH?

I did not interview and it has been radio silence, but I received an email today that said

 

Welcome Bayou_Cat,   

At BUSPH, you are joining a community filled with the next generation of public health leaders.

 

It goes on to mention the benefits of being a BU graduate student, and ends with : 

We look forward to meeting you on our BUSPH campus.

What is this, y’all?

I interviewed with Boston University this week for the DrPH program and they confirmed decisions should be made by beginning of March. They shared that they will interview around 25 applicants for 8 spots. Good luck everyone and keep leading with what you are passionate about! 

Well, there goes all my hope. This was the program I applied to as I couldn't afford to apply to multiple.

I am trying to remain confident in myself, but wow, I feel pretty worthless.

Saw someone got an interview for my top program on the results page. A little crushed. This is waiting period is killing me. 

Can you share the link?
 

I'm new to the forum and don't know where the results page is.

Try not to freak! I was looking at the forum from last year and people were still receiving interview invites 1 Feb. We just have a long road full of unknowns ahead of us

I hope someone hears back soon. They are either a little late this year, or we are an unfortunate bunch!

And wow, last year's thread was so much more active!

I only applied to Boston University, so I really threw all my eggs in one basket. I haven't heard anything and understand that last year they had sent them out Jan 7. I assume I either have a poor chance of getting in, or they are late this year in inviting people to interview.

I didn't even know BU interviewed - my confirmation e-mail pretty much just said, 'thanks and talk to you by mid-march'.

Not feeling too optimistic.
