I did not interview and it has been radio silence, but I received an email today that said Welcome Bayou_Cat, At BUSPH, you are joining a community filled with the next generation of public health leaders. It goes on to mention the benefits of being a BU graduate student, and ends with : We look forward to meeting you on our BUSPH campus. What is this, y’all? Yup, received one as well. It's very frustrating and unprofessional from their end sending such emails...

Nothing here either! I wonder if that means we're in the waitlist spectrum? *shrugs* just hoping we all get some definitive responses in the next month or so!
elizac Posted January 30, 2023 Posted January 30, 2023 Does anyone have experience or insight around deferring a PhD acceptance?

I just got an interview scheduled for JHU MH for next week. They called it a “chat” so I am wondering if it will be 1:1 or if more people will be involved. Wishing you all the luck! i receive a similar invite to chat from tulane who previously ~specifically~ said they don't interview for admissions. i wonder what the difference of using the terms "chat" vs "interview" is!

Maybe it is to help us feel less anxious ??♀️ They gave me a time frame of 30 minutes for the interview…so I am confused how to feel. Anxious nonetheless ? spiralingepi 1

Not many people seem to have applied to this program(They seem to accept only 1-2 applicants every year) so specifically mentioning it may easily reveal who I am and I try to refrain from that, sorry.

Why a DrPH? Why our school? Why now? This does seem to be a very competitive year with one school sharing that about 8% of applicants will be accepted. Good luck everyone with the interviews and stay strong/motivated in this final stretch! Do you mind sharing which schools you have had DrPH interviews with? Edited January 31, 2023 by DSB

nc2 Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 Nobody has had a DrPH interview invite for Hopkins yet?
GlobalHealth1 Posted January 31, 2023 Posted January 31, 2023 53 minutes ago, nc2 said: Nobody has had a DrPH interview invite for Hopkins yet? I didn’t apply DRPH but did apply environment health and haven’t heard anything. I’ve only seen EPI, international health , bio stats..
Leget Posted February 1, 2023 Posted February 1, 2023 Did anyone apply to University of Utah? I applied to the PhD Clinical and Translational Epidemiology under population health. I got an email today that they are done with their review and they are currently trying to match me with a faculty member who is available to take a new student and provide financial funding. They told me to expect additional details within the next few weeks.

Hopkins does not usually conduct interviews for their DrPH program as per their website. an interview invite does not mean anything from what the admissions told during the DrPH open house.

In previous years it looks like notice of admission has went out around March 1.

Yeah, I just noticed in a few threads from earlier cycles that individuals had posted about getting interview invites.
