I applied to psychiatric epi, hbu?Â

manifesthb Posted January 22 Posted January 22 On 1/19/2024 at 1:14 PM, YiL said: Generally, it is not very helpful unless the faculty is in the committee or he/she really likes you and wants to advocate you to the committee. It is more useful if the decision is not made by a committee. But in some cases, we can get some information from contacting the faculty members. I found that it really helped me forge relationships during the application process. It also enabled me to write about the faculty I’m interested in within my application. I think everyone has a different approach. Do what works for you and helps you figure out what’s the best fit for your goals Qantu 1

_kita Posted January 22 Posted January 22 On 1/19/2024 at 1:25 PM, ElieF said: Just out of curiosity, do we need to reach out to faculty members before submitting the application? (Especially for programs that are committee based.) I think this is really program specific. I had outreached to JHU faculty ahead of applying because what I want to look into is very niche and I really need to create an advisory team no matter where I applied (cross section of Intellectual Disability and Substance Use). When I outreached to faculty at JHU, I was informed it was very rare. Most of the connections basically said "no" and dismissed any follow-ups. I did meet with one super helpful professor who introduced me to her team and connected me with regional resources. I was informed that JHU has a matching process, so my outreach was considered unnecessary. However, on my end I thought it was vital since I did not want to waste my time and energy applying to a school if no one would be able/willing to work with me. For reference, I applied to Health Policy and Management. Qantu, Public health grl and ElieF 2 1
