epi2222 Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 FYI: Hopkins Epi rejection today on ApplyOnline
epi19 Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 FYI: Hopkins Epi rejection today on ApplyOnline Me too, and they didn't send an e-mail. That's how I found about UNC last week as well.
atainyagem Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Thanks Epi19, which did u apply to EMD or chronic disease Epi? I didn't get an interview so assum rejection, but then again am an international student, do u know if any got interviewed?
epi2222 Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Has anyone heard from columbia and re: funding?
md99 Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Hi md99, I applied to UGA Epi and just got my acceptance in the mail. Their application said they would only release their admissions decisions by mail, so if you applied, look for that old fashioned letter! @ Anticipation - Did you receive any notice about funding? I just got my acceptance in the mail, dated 2/11, post marked 2/14. I live in san diego, so i would imagine the letter would take a little longer to get here, but 2 weeks!
MPHandPsych Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) I just got my acceptance in the mail, dated 2/11, post marked 2/14. I live in san diego, so i would imagine the letter would take a little longer to get here, but 2 weeks! 2 weeks to get a letter in the mail from Georgia....that's ridiculous!

anticipation! Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Hi md99, Congrats on UGA! I think that we are supposed to email the department administrative assistant to start talking about funding. I remember reading somewhere that they have TAships/RAships/scholarships available, but you have to email to them to get that conversation rolling (which I have not yet done myself haha).

Not sure what the interview situation is with international students, sorry.
mcagc Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 Has anyone heard from columbia and re: funding? I second this...so anxious!!!

Thanks Anticipation. I am happy to have gotten in. Its between SDSU and UGA. UGA has not been very responsive to my emails; I don't know if thats a bad sign. I need to tell sdsu something by next week to get my tuition covered. Its an easy decision if there is no UGA funding. Have you made a decision?

Have you made a decision? Hi md99, I've actually decided to go a slightly different direction than I originally planned- I have decided to attack infectious diseases from the biological side, and I'm pretty certain that I will be pursuing a PhD in Biology from Penn State's Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics. I think UGA has a neat program though- it's slightly scary to be the first cohort of PhD students for the department, but there are definitely advantages to that as well. And UGA's a big university with a lot of varied resources- prime stuff for interdisciplinary collaboration! But as you said- funding makes decisions a no-brainer! Here's hoping that UGA digs deep for you! At the very least, I would expect that they should be able to offer a TAship with that many undergrads to teach...
bubbaface Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Rejection from Columbia SMS today by e-mail. Knew it was coming so I'm not disappointed.
jew2118 Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Has anyone heard from Hopkins Health Behavior and Society? I know Columbia SMS has sent out same wait list positions.
darse1112 Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 (edited) Glad that my waiting is concluded! Is anyone going to U-Pitts Epi Accepted Applicant Day? Edited March 6, 2012 by darse1112
twizzler86 Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Has anyone heard from Hopkins Health Behavior and Society? I know Columbia SMS has sent out same wait list positions. I haven't heard anything yet...but I think we will hear something by the end of the week
phdroute Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Anyone going to Hopkins for the visit day this Friday? I think it's Health Policy programs only, but not positive.
wildcat88 Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 has anyone heard from Hopkins International Health Social & Behavioral Interventions for PhD programs? I saw that someone head from their POI in early February on the results, but I don't know if they have sent out info to all admits.
DeeLovely79 Posted March 6, 2012 Author Posted March 6, 2012 The UPitt Accepted Applicant Day is for all departments and its primarily geared to the master's level applicants. I thinking about going but I'm not sure I want to do any more traveling so soon. Re: Hopkins Health Behavior and Society, I e-mailed the ad coord yesterday and she said that decisions for the DrPH program will be mailed out today (I assume PhD decisions will be going out at the same time).

rachelmac Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Has anyone heard from the Harvard PhD in health policy?
CameraMan Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Has anyone heard from the Harvard PhD in health policy? People have put up results already (Results Survey section), and they ended interviews at least a week ago. If you haven't heard back at this point, I wouldn't hold out hope.
darse1112 Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Dee, I actually planning on to arrive at the place one day before and trying to arrange meeting with my assigned adviser and hopefully talk to a couple more students in the lab.
rachelmac Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Thanks! I finally get the results section I only see results posted for econ track-- but Im pretty certain you are right. Ah well! People have put up results already (Results Survey section), and they ended interviews at least a week ago. If you haven't heard back at this point, I wouldn't hold out hope.
