Who else is going to the program!? I look forward to meeting people at the Open House on the 1st. If anyone needs any help with directions or anything, you can also let me know - I already live in Boston.

Hi sudzie88. Congrats on your acceptance to HSPH! I'm considering attending (but for epi); however, I have some major reservations about the school. I'm not sure of how familiar you are with the school or if there are major variations across programs, but if you have any insight into the faculty (although it may not apply to epi specifically), I am interested in the availability of faculty and research opportunities and the overall relationship between doctoral students and faculty. I know this will differ drastically from one professor to another, but HSPH is such a large place and I'm coming from a somewhat smaller school, so I'm definitely concerned about being lost in the crowd or having less flexibility in pursuing my research interests within some of the huge cohorts that HSPH has. Thank you in advance (even if you are completely unable to answer my questions).
