Just saw your edit. It seems like a personal email (at least compared to the admissions email from Hopkins). I expect everyone accepted got the same email though.

Thank you! I would've deferred and tried again next year, if it didn't pan out. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

I got an email about 45 min ago that I was selected for the Bloomberg Fellowship! Hope others get good news, too! All the best!

Ugh, I'm sorry! That's disappointing. Does it change your decision on where you'll enroll? I'm still waiting to hear back.

Good luck! Keeping my fingers crossed for both of us!

Has anyone heard about the Bloomberg Fellowship yet? It's been crickets on my end.

Anyone heard back from JHU's Bloomberg Fellows Program? It seems like MPH applicants are starting to get notified. Curious if DrPH applicants have heard anything yet?

I can offer a descriptive account of my qualifications, though I don't know what swayed the admissions decision in my favor. I graduated from prestigious US public universities for undergrad (BS) and grad (MPH). My GPA for both was nothing spectacular (around 3.5). I have about 10 years of experience in applied research in healthcare management, with progressively increasing responsibilities. In that time, I've carved out a niche area of expertise in an emerging field and published 5 first author peer-reviewed articles. In my statement of purpose, I outlined in detail how the DrPH program will help me accelerate the impact of my work and contribution to the field. My letters of recommendation were from leaders in my organization who could speak to my leadership in and passion for the topic. I hope this helps! Wishing you all the best of luck!

Just got notified that I got into the JHU DrPH Health Policy and Management program. I applied for the Healthcare Management & Leadership Track. Holding my breath on the fellowship application status. Good luck everyone!
