123hardasABC Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Accepted at (and will be attending) U of Michigan's Hospital and Molecular Epidemiology MPH program! Congrats!! I'm so jealous. Still anxiously waiting to hear back from my top choices. This must be the perfect way to start your holidays!
dude_abides Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Hey all! Been lurking for quite some time now (a really long time)-- decided to finally join to stress out together but on a more official basis. Just wanted to say that this forum has been a really valuable resource and all of you have been seriously incredible leading up to submission of applications. I submitted my apps at the end of November, it was really down to the wire. Working on submitting applications to Canadian schools now. Happy to say that it seems like acceptances/rejections/any sort of notifications are slowly trickling in as of this week! Applied: JHU (MPH), UMich (MPH - Epi), UMinn (MPH - Epi), GWU (MPH- Epi), Columbia (MPH) Rejected: GWU Accepted: UMich (MPH - Epi, General Epidemiology)!

And congrats for getting into Michigan!! I submitted my apps at the same time as you and most of the same schools (different program)--sorry to hear about GWU-when did you hear back from them (I haven't even gotten a confirmation email from them)?
worldpeace Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 Someone from SDN already got into Yale for CDE. Urgh... I absolutely hate the waiting game!!!!!!
123hardasABC Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 I just got another email from Emory saying that my stuff has been forwarded to my departments of choice. My application is finally, finally complete (I hope). I guess the previous two emails didn't count?

I heard back from GWU on Tuesday, and received a confirmation email on December 4th---maybe follow-up with them? Edited December 21, 2013 by dude_abides
chris.9 Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 Applied to UT Houston's Environmental Health Sciences program and was accepted early December, but I haven't head anything regarding scholarships. Has anyone else heard from UT Houston?
123hardasABC Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 Was accepted to Icahn SoM today! Congrats! Perfect news before all the offices close for the holiday, I bet.
faithfullywaiting Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 Just got my first rejection from Tulane--this is real Merry Christmas everyone!
KennedyAM Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 Congrats! Perfect news before all the offices close for the holiday, I bet. Most definitely! haha one slight sigh of relief
MadtownJacket Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Got an interview with Johns Hopkins for MHA. faithfullywaiting 1
123hardasABC Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Most definitely! haha one slight sigh of relief Also if you are seriously considering Icahn and want to live near campus......you should shoot me a message because I'm seriously considering Icahn and would like to live near campus. I need to share the burden of rent.
katethekitcat Posted January 8, 2014 Author Posted January 8, 2014 Has anyone heard anything, positive or negative, since December 27? This silence seems odd. Or has anyone decided to attend one of the places they've been accepted?
epikid2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 Has anyone heard anything, positive or negative, since December 27? This silence seems odd. Or has anyone decided to attend one of the places they've been accepted? It's the holidays! One thing many people fail to realize is that these admissions officers are individuals just like us with tons of work to do. The silence seems realistic - seeing as many universities are just now opening for Spring term and with all the crazy weather the country has been getting! I'm sure we'll be hearing more soon. epikid2014 1
katethekitcat Posted January 8, 2014 Author Posted January 8, 2014 True - I'm just basing this off the biology thread, which is currently sending out a ton of invites/rejections/acceptances. Different departments, admittidly, but most applications have been turned in by now and many places have rolling admissions. Plus it's a shout out to lurkers
MPH(D?) Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 I just got another email from Emory saying that my stuff has been forwarded to my departments of choice. My application is finally, finally complete (I hope). I guess the previous two emails didn't count? Just got my MPH from Emory - departments make the final decisions. Admissions emails usually go out mid-to-late January from the department ADAPs. Good luck, Rollins was an amazing experience!!!
schooliscool Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 I applied to 5 public health PhD programs. I've heard from UT Houston and Emory that the applications were fwded to the departments, but nothing since. I was rejected from Ohio State less than a week after my application was final - I'm assuming my POI already had someone lined up, or wasn't taking on students (I really didn't fit with any other faculty either). It was at the bottom of my safe schools and I'm pretty sure I'm a viable candidate for better programs, so it really didn't bother me. That said, it was a pretty quick decision! So if you've applied there and haven't heard back, it's probably a good sign!
