Same here! Love how they only have two days this week with limited options lolĀ 

I was thinking that meant they're only interviewing a handful? Maybe we're tier 1??šŸ˜Ž

As sad as it is I'm glad I'm not going through the wait/torture alone. I took Friday off cuz I know I'd be a mess, but it's not like I'm about to take off this whole week!

Under Review.

Hey! Has anyone reached out to Hopkins to ask about decisions dates? I just went off of previous years with the March 1st, but I realized I never checked in with anyone in admissions. So I was wondering if ya'll had done so.Ā

Nope! I had gone off of the previous years and their website that says, "Communications of offers: Early March." Going through the results searches over the last few years:

Here's the spread I see on here:

  • 2023: March 1st (Wednesday)
  • 2022: March 1-3rd (Tuesday-Thursday)
  • 2021: March 2nd (Tuesday)
  • 2020: March 3rd (Tuesday)
  • 2019: March 11th (Monday)
  • 2018: March 7th (Wednesday)

2019 is an outlier, I'm not sure if that was someone waitlisted or they pushed back acceptances that year from COVID? Either way, without calling, my assumption on previous trends are we should hear back this week.

You're an angel for summarizing this!

With this level of investigative detail, you're a shoo-in for the program! :)Ā Thank you! ATP, I just want it over with.Ā

No problem. It would be far more efficient for someone to call, but I just never have the energy for that!Ā šŸ˜…

Do you think itā€™s worth reaching out to admissions if we havenā€™t heard anything? I interviewed but am still waiting so anxious to hear back

Not sure if you ended up reaching out. But if it makes you feel better I also interviewed and haven't heard anything yet...definitely feeling the anxiety too!

I called! There are no decisions released yet or date decided however we could hear sometime this week (no guarantee). Once decisions are made we will get an email to check the portal.

Hi! Have been lurking on the forum and wanted to keep tabs. Has anyone heard back from or interviewed with the Epi programs for Boston University or the population health program at Northeastern University? I have not heard back (or been interviewed) from either yet.Ā

Not sure if this will help but I did just get an email back.

"Thank you for your interest in the DrPH program at BSPH! Admissions decisions will be sent out at the beginning of March. "
