Hopefully they send out admit day/funding information soon. Still waiting for the other decisions to roll in... I hate the waiting game. No funding or admit day info yet. I'm trying to reach out to several professors as of right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I interviewed the last week in January and haven't heard anything either I'm applying for the MPH-to-PhD but they told me it's the same process as the regular PhD. Which are you applying for?

Pubhealth101 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Is UW, specifically Global Health - Implementation track, sending out decisions yet? I saw on the results page that someone was rejected. I know that visiting day is Feb 28 because they told people who were interviewing to mark it in our calendar and they will let us know more after interviews are over. Does anyone know when they would let us know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told it would be a couple of weeks before decisions were sent out when I asked what the next steps were, so we should be getting close...I'm getting nervous!

apex45 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Hey, did anyone who was at Yale Recruitment Day catch any info about when we'll hear back? Also, has anyone who interviewed with Pitt for BCHS still not heard back? Idk about y'all, but I am so, so ready for this admissions cycle to wrap up. I was really hoping to hear from those two schools this week, but alas, 5 pm EST on Friday has come and gone again. Epidemiology19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied 10, primarily because I don't think my background is strong enough. For a person whose background is as strong as you, I think three is more than enough. Thanks! Hope everyone waiting on JHU finds out soon! Would be lovely to see you all at the visit day in April! gloriaepi2019 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloriaepi2019 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Anyone applied to the University of Iowa and interviewed there? I received an interview invitation from the University of Iowa and I think it is a pretty decent program with ranking at the 17th right after Yale. If anyone could share any information regarding this program, I would appreciate that! And also curious about the ranking and reputation of the program at Washington University in St. Louis.

sleepycat123 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) Hi all, I have been a lurker for some time but thought I'd finally contribute my updates. Accepted: UCLA Community Health Science Interviewed: Columbia Epi and Brown Epi Most likely waitlisted: Hopkins International Health (GDEC) Rejected: Harvard, BU, Michigan Still waiting: UNC Maternal and Child Health, UC Berkeley Epi, NYU Epi The Columbia faculty that interviewed me said that decisions should be released next week or early the following week. Good luck to everyone!! Edited February 16, 2019 by sleepycat123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caf442 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) Hi all! Long time lurker, first time poster! Wanted to share some updates in case they were helpful! Accepted: University of Washington Health Services PhD (received a call from the program director earlier this week after having a brief Skype interview with them three weeks ago. Visit day is March 21 and 22) Rejected: Harvard SBS PhD, UC Berkeley Health Policy PhD (was told earlier this week that they’re done reviewing applications and that decisions are being sent out mid-Feb to early March. My result was sent to spam, so check your spam folders) Waiting: NYU SBS PhD, Columbia SMS PhD, Yale SBS PhD, Harvard MPH My background: BA in Global Public Health and Sociology. Worked part time/interned three years of college in health research, two years of full time health research experience. GPA 3.5, GRE 165V 162Q 4.5W. Four published papers and completed an undergraduate thesis. 5 rec letters and pretty strong extracurricular activities. Really excited about UW because of their strong social justice mindset. However, I know they don’t guarantee funding (although the program director said they’ve never *not* been able to find funding for their students). This worries me—does anyone have insight into what this might mean for my PhD studies? Will I have to scramble to apply to multiple forms of funding each year/be at risk of paying tuition? Thanks in advance everyone! This forum has been super helpful for me. Edited February 16, 2019 by caf442 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
