PhDGorl24 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I applied to Hopkins, Brown, BU, Harvard, Michigan, and UIC for a PhD in Epi. I got an email from Hopkins saying interview offers are being extended but I have not recieved one but I have heard that others have (CONGRATS!!!). Has anyone heard anything from any of these schools? Qantu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t heard anything yet (Hopkins) I applied to the PhD in Epi and got an email basically saying that they are entering stage 2 of the application review but it seem like it was specifically for the Epi Phd applicants.

Which track did you apply to? I applied to general epi/methods epi track! I haven’t seen other folks within other tracks (CVD, genetic, ID, etc) within epi get any interviews yet but maybe I’m missing something on the forums. Is stage 2 interviews then 3 offer extension?

Congrats on your interview I also suggest pulling out key parts of your work that directly correlate to the direction of research that your faculty mentor does. You’ve made it through the tough part of getting the interview and now they are assessing fit. Which epi program are you interviewing for under PHS? Maternal, pharmaco?

All the advice I could get is very well appreciated 🤗 I got another interview for Duke in the same day and I am freaking out for not messing it up 🫠 I heard things could be more difficult for international applicants like me because we can't be financed by the most common funding sources. You are also applying to PhDs in Epi, right? Whish you all the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how the interview requests work. The email didn't say much about the process itself like how many interviews or if it means that candidates made it to a next round. Nothing like that. 2 hours ago, Public health grl said: Congratulations! And good luck! Was it from admission or a faculty member? It was from admissions linking me to two faculty members. 1 hour ago, Qantu said: Yay! Wishing you the best! Thank you! So many feels!

We need to support one another with info! I’m not quite sure I understand the question. I did not mention any faculty in my application. From my understanding, the two faculty members who will conduct the interview are on the admissions committee. Qantu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, let's stay positive and support one another during this process. @Public health grl I am not applying to the DrPh program but this info could be useful. I mentioned a couple of faculty in my application, but none of them approached me with an interview invitation. The invitations I got were from other faculty in the program and they mentioned they wanted to evaluate whether my research interests aligned with the program. Let's stay positive! My current mentor mentioned she was waitlisted at Harvard without getting an interview and was accepted at another university without an interview.

Ahh okay, I mentioned faculty but had spoke to both that I mentioned so I was curious if others did. But Staying positive this was helpful thanks so much for the support!! If you don’t mind sharing what’s your public health focus? Mine is Global Suicide Prevention/ psychiatric Epi. 3 minutes ago, Qantu said: Loved what you said!

It feels like there’s no set pattern to predict how the admission committee works, even between the DrPh or PhD! Good-luck rooting for everyone!!!

andrewsethna Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Congratulations on people receiving interviews. I applied to the Harvard DrPH as well, but thought the KIIRA interview replaced direct interviews. Was wondering if anyone else received interviews? Thank you and Good Luck Qantu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
