I don't know... I wonder. I reached out to the person who scheduled my interview and they said some offers had gone out and made it seem like I was waitlisted but I never got an official waitlist email. I do want to reach out to the faculty but im not sure...

I got a really similar response. And then when I asked if I'm on the waitlist, the person responded saying she asked the committee on what she could tell me. And the committee said they're still deliberating on all interviewed candidates and will have an update for everyone soon. So cryptic lol what does this even mean

NYU GPH has two fellow slots for each track, and may offer additional slots if the faculty could fund RA track with their grant. Many schools don't notify about waitlist status. People might receive acceptance decisions after the 415 deadline.

This is extremely helpful, thanks so much. I'm not gonna hold onto any hope for this one and will treat it like a rejection. Damn, 2 spots per track is insane.

Has anyone heard from NYU SBS PhD or GWU SBS PhD yet?? I interviewed over a month ago and I'm freaking out 

Hey, I got into GWU SBS around 2/14. I might not accept the offer, but still considering and waiting to talk to the faculty. Happy to chat over the DM if you have questions 🙂

Anyone received funding info from Drexel CHP PhD?

Hey! Yes, accepted with fellowship funding. Still trying to arrange a time to meet with the faculty before I decide. 

[fall2023epi]

Hi, does anyone know when will the funding situations be available for the UCLA Epi program? I'm waiting anxiously...

[DannnnZ]

Does any body hear anything from Tulane Epi since interview?

[winnpopl]

Does anyone hear anything after receiving the waitlisted decision in late Feb for Emory's health service research & health policy? 

[dianabixler]

Do you all recommend checking in with the program or just waiting it out?

[PhDPublicHealth]

Has anyone heard from Hopkins International Health (Social and Behavioral Interventions)? I saw some rejections on the main page over a month ago, but I haven’t seen any interviews or acceptances yet. Anxiously waiting!!

[impressiontall]

Officially waitlisted at NYU and Hopkins Mental Health. I also interviewed at GWU but haven't heard anything in over a month. Assuming waitlist/rejection there.

"Our admissions decisions will be released to applicants within the month of March."

I got admitted in late Jan for their DrPH progarm

[sandia_sunflower]

Is anyone else impatiently awaiting fellowship decisions from JHU DrPH? I have only the slimmest of hopes to be among those awarded - selected candidates from years prior seem to be so accomplished! But alas - would be good to hear and put it to rest or not 🤷‍♀️

[olivecords]

Hello, people admitted to Drexel: how long was it between being admitted and getting funding?

[AnxiousKronk]

Any news from Rutgers and NYU DrPH programs? Rutgers said they will get back to us with decisions by the first week of march 😕

Anyone waitlisted for Hopkins DrPH and have insight into timeline? Im waitlisted for Global Health Policy & Evaluation and emailed them twice but no response.

I would guess that the waitlist will start to move when accepted applicants start to choose programs and decline going to Hopkins. I’m sure many are waiting to hear about funding before deciding to attend or not, hopefully people will start committing to programs soon to open up those spots 🤞

Tulane DrPH Leadership, Equity, and Advocacy sent out decisions on Friday, March 10th via a letter posted to the portal. I was waitlisted. They said they'll probably respond to waitlist people after April 15th (the deadline for admitted students to respond).

May I ask if there is any update on your part? I still didn't get the funding but the PI reached out to me and said the schoolwide funding would be decided later in March or early April.
