SkylarS Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Just being waitlisted by PhD program in Epi at Vanderbilt. Super anxious now. The agonizing wait was lengthened. Congradulations to those accepted in the 1st round of offer! But please decline the offer ASAP if you have better PhD offers! I'd appreciated it soooo much! fingazntoescrossd and DrPH21_Jhu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EJ_PhD Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Congrats to everyone that has recently heard back from the influx of program notifications (acceptances, interviews, and even rejections to at least bring peace of mind). But has anyone heard back from Tulane's Epi PhD program? They've been radio silent and based on one of their Open Houses, it appears they select a small number of candidates and have a 1-on-1 match with faculty, so curious to see if anyone has matched, and with whom!

I guess I'm waiting for a rejection. Hey guys, sorry to be the bearer of bad news - I got my official acceptance letter to Tulane epi on Friday the 5th. Also, I matched with Dr. Jiang He for the program. It definitely was a very based on fit with faculty as you start your dissertation research like the first week in.

Dr. Jiang He is the department chair so it's nice to be able to work/match with him? I guess the silver lining here is there are several other faculty that may take students (with other interests), unless you have inside knowledge on whether all students have already been accepted to put us out of our misery ?

Thank you! I can't say for sure but my sense is acceptances have already been sent out. I know that admitted students weekend is happening on March 14-16.

phdepihopeful Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) Hi all. Long time lurker, first time poster here. Just got my final application result so here's my record for Epidemiology PhD programs: UC Davis - Accepted, 2 years of guaranteed funding before needing to find a TA/RA position UCSF - Rejected Stanford - Rejected after interviews Berkeley - Rejected I'm grateful to have one acceptance during this crazy application year, but like many folks I'm bummed to have been rejected from my top choices. That said, is anyone else thinking about attending UC Davis in the Fall? Or do you have any insight into the program? Also is anyone thinking about deferring for a year to reapply? Again, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I want to make sure I get a good fit for my interests too. I'd really appreciate any insight!

I lived in Davis for a year and actually RAed for an infectious diseases PhD student there. I still keep in touch with her loosely and she's currently working at the CDC. From what I remember, she loved her program and her advisor was incredibly supportive. Sorry I don't have more info on the program, BUT I do have a lot of info on Davis. First of all, I have to say I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DAVIS. It is a gorgeous little town. So chilled out and beautiful. Summers are HOT but you'll just have to take refuge in Tahoe (1.5 hrs away) and Yosemite (3 hrs away). I've had some of the most positive experiences of my life in Davis, and I was only there for a year. My brother did his PhD at Davis in Econ. When he first applied, it wasn't his top choice either but 6 years later he is a fancy professor at a liberal arts college and has never looked back. The community he built at Davis are now some of his closest friends (and mine). Also, super fun events that happen during the year (picnic day, tour, farmer's markets). AND Davis is super duper safe. Hope this helps a bit and let me know if you want more info! Edit: how could I forget? Davis is the bike capital of the world. Super flat and loads of bike lanes. You should see the bike racks in UC Davis during the semester. Pretty crazy Edited March 9, 2021 by FDawg epi2be, ALLSPH, MCH_Hopeful_2021 and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
