I just know it’s virtual this year, so that’s why I think they’re taking a while to send invitations since people aren’t having to book travel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstaticpublichealth Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Can anyone speak to whether or not getting an interview means there is a good chance of being accepted into the PhD program? Also, if anyone else is applying straight into PhDs from undergrad? I recently had an interview for a university's fellowship for their PhD program. Which, by the way, I am a little confused on why there would be an interview for the university's fellowship before even an offer of admission.

I don't know for sure but for a fair amount of PhD programs, funding via a fellowship needs to be guaranteed before they can accept a student. so it may be that for that particular program, you need the fellowship to be admitted as a PhD student. so, I'd take that as a sign that your application is strong enough for admission but they're looking now to see if you are a good research fit for available funding/the fellowship. i could be wrong--i am going off of very few details, haha.

Definitely got some questions I wasn’t expecting but we will see what they think. Should be finding out final decisions for them before the end of the month, right? Any clues on how many ppl got interviews? Hi, sorry I only logged in just now. I have no idea, but if anything, you're the third person here on GC who mentioned being in the interview phase for the Duke Pop Health PhD program. During the interview I was told that final decisions might come out mid-February. I'll leave it up to chance at this point; as I said, I didn't feel too thrilled with the interview, though it might just be me vibing about the whole thing. Hoping we all end up where we can do our best work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medception Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 On 1/12/2022 at 10:37 PM, medception said: Hi all - long time lurker, first time poster. 8 years of work experience in healthcare consulting at two separate firms (mostly payer / provider and Medicare / Medicaid consulting for the federal government and state Medicaid agencies). MPH from Johns Hopkins in Biostatistics. Applied to Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Michigan, Brown, Yale, Wharton, GW, BU, and Minnesota - Twin Cities. So far have received interview invites at: 1) BU PhD HSR (Interviewed 01/05) 2) Brown PhD HSR (Interview 01/28) 3) Johns Hopkins PhD Health Economics and Policy (Interview 01/13) Will update further as the month moves along! Update 01/18/2022: 1) BU PhD HSR (Interviewed 01/05) 2) Johns Hopkins PhD Health Economics and Policy (Interviewed 01/13) 3) GW Health Policy (Interviewed 01/17) 4) Brown PhD HSR (Interview 01/28) GW has very limited funding (~2 slots) for this year, which I find insane because Milken is a well-funded program.
