BZG Posted February 9 Posted February 9 10 hours ago, DrPH2024 said: Very, but I get it. UIC is high on my list, but I still have to hear from my #1. As much as I think it's a good fit I'll probably declining on March 1 (when I expect other decisions to come in), and give the rest of the applicant pool a fair chance. I was considering asking for an extension to decide, but ultimately will probably not end up there. The timing of these decisions is tough! Do you know how much UIC DrPH tuition cost is? I know it's 96 semester hours for about 3.5 years.(for those who don't hold an MPH but up to 32 semesters hours can be credited for those who do hold an MPH.)

Mamitis Posted February 9 Posted February 9 First notification from a program: Rejected from BU DrPH I thought that would be the case because I was not interviewed. It was also the program I was least interested in, so that's not such a bad thing. Good luck to everyone! And congratulations to those of you who are accepted!

Please do the same if you hear something - this wait is just so awful. Did you hear back from the coordinator?

Nope - I am honestly just more confused than ever at this point about what the timeline looks like and if those acceptances posted on the results page are legit. If someone else wants to email too, maybe there is strength in numbers. Otherwise, I am planning to follow-up in the middle of next week again because this wait is beyond brutal.

I wouldn’t take those on the page too seriously! People are equally likely to report it more elaborately over here because of the added benefit of potentially identifying cohort mates
ratatatta Posted February 10 Posted February 10 Looks like by this time last year all Harvard PHS decisions were already out but rn no decisions are out. Yes, they say by February 23rd on their website but they usually always say a day farther out than when they actually expect to notify applicants, presumably so they have a buffer period before they are inundated with admissions result emails. Anyone (e.g. someone currently there or who knows adcom) have insight as to if they are actually planning to notify around the 23rd this year? If there are shorter or longer delays? Thanks!

The weird thing is that they’re welcoming newly admitted students in an instagram post from yesterday. Other degree programs or concentrations, maybe? Public health grl and ratatatta 2

I thought the date to reply with a decision was a little early (March 1). Wondering if you were concerned at all about that too? Oops I already asked my apologies! Congratulations again 😊 Edited February 10 by BZG Already asked the question lion123 1

I’ll follow up likely end of next week if we don’t hear back. Didn’t someone say that if we were invited to interview day that you’re either accepted or on the wait list?
