IAAJ Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) Congratulations on getting into Hopkins @EnviroDrPH-PhD, @Challenge2025 @HopeFaithandDrPH and @DrPH or Bust !!! I posted it in the other thread that I'm on the wait list for Hopkins, but I'm overjoyed by that! My stats - 2.6 undergrad GPA, 3.6 MPH (7 years to finish) No publications 26th percentile Quant scores on the GRE... I am NOT the typical candidate on this forum. But I do know that ALL things are possible! I'm so excited for you all! Edited March 2, 2021 by IAAJ Just adding names for all of yall who got in!!!

bluejayfang Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) Huge congrats to all those getting acceptances today! It's been an excruciating wait, and I am so glad we have some news trickling out. Looks like I'll be regrouping this year and figuring out where my applications went wrong. Thankfully, I still have a job that I love and can keep making a difference. The rejections still sting a bit.

Do you mind if I ask which track you applied for? I wonder if some things may matter more than others based on the track. I was leadership track health policy concentration and will dm you my stats.

DrPH or Bust Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 For those who applied for the Bloomberg Fellowship at Hopkins, I emailed the Bloomberg Fellowship Officer about decisions. It sounds like we'll receive them next week. *fingers crossed* Ajrw, burnt_toast and HopeFaithandDrPH 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niram Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Has anyone heard from Berkeley DrPH? I saw someone post about an acceptance a while ago. Any updates since then for anyone else? Also, do any of you know how many applicants they accept? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrPHCatLady Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Congrats @DrPH or Bust on UT Health (and Hopkins)! I deferred my DrPH admission in Houston, but just moved to NYC for work and so I applied to NYU before the 2/1 deadline. My application hasn't had any movement. I was told by admissions that interviews/decisions would begin in mid-March, and so now I am worried that I'm just waiting on a formal rejection, which would mean moving back to Houston for school next year. Did they indicate to you when they'll be making decisions? Congrats on your interview! Their program sounds phenomenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They hope to have decisions out by the end of this month, though it's not set in stone. It sounds like a really nice program with lots of potential.

Jungle345 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) Rutger DrPH applicants— did y’all every get a “application under review” type email? I only got a “application received” email back in Dec. however, I know that I’ve completed all the requirements so I just wanted to check to see what the norm was. Thanks.

Glad to be one step closer to finalizing where I'll be in the fall! Got wait listed for BU! So for those who are still waiting, I assume you'll hear shortly. I interviewed and I think the interview went well, there were just a lot of awesome folks applying this year. So I still feel happy about being on the wait list.

DrPH2021 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Does anyone have information regarding UNC DrPH and wait listing? I am curious how they would handle a few applicants declining and would that open up spots for someone that was rejected. This is the first time for me applying beyond MPH and would appreciate feedback. I honestly only applied to one program but will cast a wider net next year.

Most people accept but if people decline then they would get someone else to fill the spot. It's an amazing program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajrw Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Hi all! I am feeling extraordinarily lucky as I received acceptance at UNC and Hopkins and I am now trying to sort out which would be the best fit to attend. I am feeling one is a better curriculum/personality fit and the other is a better fit for my life/schedule/finances. Would any current students be willing to talk with me? I think I recall @DrPH2025and @BigTuna saying you're currently in these programs. If you wouldn't mind me sending you a direct message I'd be so appreciative! I am also getting the sense none of the DrPH programs have financial aid options but wondering if anyone else has insight into that. Or tips on how to have those conversations. Apologies if this is the incorrect thread for this conversation! HopeFaithandDrPH 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
