DrPH Application Decisions

[sante]

What do you guys think about the DrPH offered by Harvard vs. other schools?

 

hi

 

the harvard drph is a 3 year program from my understanding and given that its an inaugural program they're still working out kinks. from my conversations with them it doesnt seem like they have as much of a management and leadership focus as BU's or Berkeley's whose programs have been running for years.

 

also it depends why you're going to school. if you want to finish quickly and have something to go back to then 3 years might be worth it. for me i'm going to school to get excellent training. 5 years seems to be more rigourous training than 3.

 

then again harvard carries a name.

i havent heard from Berkeley DrPH either. Who did you guys email? I emailed the admissions of the school of public health and they gave me some long convoluted email that told me i'll hear in the next few weeks. *rolling eyes*

 

i heard from BU DrPH.

Wow, they told you another 2 weeks? Something's really wrong with that school! Have you tried gradadm@berkeley.edu, sphinfo@berkeley.edu, jrrbloom@gmail.com ?

Here's a question: did anyone that got in to Hopkins DrPH program receive tuition support?
