Hi everyone! This forum has been SO useful for me during my PhD process, so although I am late, I wanted to contribute my final results. I got off my waitlists in mid-April and mid-May - so for future applicants, don't give up if you have been waitlisted! It was definitely stressful waiting to hear back for so long, but the programs were literally moving mountains to get me the best possible funding that they could, so the wait was well worth it. Accepted without waitlist: OHSU/PSU - Community Health (2 years tuition waiver only) - mid-March Accepted off of the waitlist: UW - Health Services (2 years tuition/fees/insurance waivers and GRA position, small recruitment award) - Interviewed mid-January, waitlisted mid-February, accepted mid-May UNC - Health Behavior (2 years tuition/fees/insurance waiver and GRA position) - interviewed late-January, waitlisted early-march, accepted mid-April Rejected: Brown - Behavior and Social Health Sciences (No interview) - mid-March GW - Social and Behavior Sciences (No interview) - mid-March Harvard - Population Health (No interview) - mid-February Hopkins - Social and Behavioral Sciences (No interview) - early-April UCLA - Community Health Sciences (No interview, rejected only after e-mailing) - mid-April
