Howisit2022already Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I wonder if admissions committee panels ever check gradcafe and see us all panicking ?

EpiHopeful22 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Hi everyone! I have been lurking for a while, but haven't posted yet. I was wondering if it is normal to have more than one professor interview you for a PhD program? I had an interview with a PI for the Harvard Population Health PhD program this week, but had another PI reach out to me to interview with them next week. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks and good luck everyone! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May I ask which track you applied to and PIs that contacted if you'd be okay with sharing? Edited January 14, 2022 by Ehphd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks and good luck everyone! ? From my understanding, the way harvard epi phs works is that subcommittees meet first (so, the specialization/tracks) and then they have PIs reach out to people to gauge you research interests/fit, and then the whole committee meets to discuss further and decide on who/best fit later on. So, if your application is sort of at the intersection of more than one specialization in epi, it might just be two different specializations/subcommittees trying to see which faculty in their area you might fit best with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photo Light Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Hi everyone, I saw that JHU and UPenn sent out interviews for Epi PhD today - I'm super happy for those people, but am also worried because I haven't heard anything yet and I applied to both schools!

ScholarlyBaddie Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Hi ya'll. I interviewed yesterday with Oregon State University for their PhD program. I think I could have done better but my nerves got the best of me. Hoping they did not notice as much as I did haha. But we shall see. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepi22 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Hey everyone, just wanted to share that I interviewed with Harvard PHS-Epi earlier this week (got an email from a PI I'd mentioned on my app), and it seems like they're still a few weeks out from sending decisions.

I am in the same boat! Wondering if I should lose hope about JHU yet lol. Based on last year's results, it looks like a bunch of JHU interviews were sent out around Jan 20-21 2021, so maybe there's still hope for us?

smellycat Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Man I'm starting to lose all hope. One rejection from Oxford and doesn't look good for these either haha. It's my first time applying so this is a nice reality check Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will not be sending out decisions until March and you will only be contacted for an interview if there are points in your application that need clarification. I am not expecting to hear back until March. It's easier said than done, but nothing good will come out of stressing. The way I see it, I submitted the best application I could and if I get rejected, it just means that there were better people out there. I hope this helps ?
