I could not remember too much, I was mostly blacked out during the interview, hahaha... Got it! Thanks! Still no news, but according to what you mentioned about the deadline, probably it's a silent rejection : ( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's one rejection on the results page but nothing else. hang in there, rejections always come before interviews. I know they're running behind this year but I can let you know if I hear anything from the committee about when interview invitations will be sent.

NutriEpiPhD Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 How likely is an official offer of admission if I've gotten an 'unofficial' acceptance email from the Department Chair stating that they've "made a recommendation of [my] application for admission to the University's Graduate School" and that they wanted to "congratulate [me] a bit early on my accomplishment. You will receive a formal financial offer in February. More to come soon." ???? E.COLI, YoYToT and Epidem2019 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they've already conducted interviews, but also have sent some rejection letters too, so probably middle of pile. Not Optimistic. Columbia SMS: Got my email today for an interview next week for the Predoctoral Fellowship in Gender, Sexuality, & Health. No idea if they interview all candidates, or only those who specified fellowships. Did you see on the results page that Harvard sent out rejection letters already? I didn't see that yet. I have not heard back anything after my submission in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gloriaepi2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Received official my acceptance letter from UT, no interview and no mentioning of funding. I wonder, will the schools typically mention funding in the admission letter or is applying for funding is an independent process? Also eager to know anyone heard back from JHU? Did anyone get admitted to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied epi and have not heard anything, so assuming I'll be getting a rejection in the next few days, unfortunately.
