katethekitcat Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 On another note, for those who applied to Emory, on OPUS there's an option to pay your admission deposit even though decisions haven't been made yet. I thought that was kinda interesting. Unless it's an error on their end in that they updated the website before they officially send out your acceptance???? Crossing my fingers for you!

123hardasABC Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I see it on the bottom of my OPUS page. I applied to epi. I just got my admission package for BU. I got $12000 merit scholarship. I thought this was generous until I looked up how much BU costs. Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish Yale's EMD would start sending out decision already!! I see it on the bottom of my OPUS page. I applied to epi. I just got my admission package for BU. I got $12000 merit scholarship. I thought this was generous until I looked up how much BU costs. Damn. And living in Boston isn't necessarily cheap lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123hardasABC Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 This is what my OPUS looks like. If I click "Pay Admission Deposit" it takes me to a payment page for $300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojodreams Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 fyi: Someone from Emory emailed me last Friday to tell me that I did not take a stats class which is a requirement for the MSPH degree, but that I would be considered for MPH. Well, I did take stats (named Quantitative Methods), so I called them and spoke with a super nice secretary who apologized for the mistake and told me that they will be reviewing the MSPH applications very soon (I am guessing this past week since that was on the 10th )...so...we should be hearing soon I think. I am not sure about straight MPH and if that is reviewed at a separate time. Good info to have for some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.9 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Anybody on here applying to Industrial Hygiene programs? I've already gotten positive responses from UT Health Science Center and South Florida. Still waiting to hear from Tulane, Michigan, and Johns Hopkins (a guy can dream, right?).

emeyeseekayeewhy Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I was accepted to the Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases MPH at Yale last Thursday! Haven't heard from my other 6 schools yet, though! Getting super antsy :S I was hoping to hear from another school before the long weekend, but oh well! Being from Atlanta, I am really itching to hear from Emory. I went to one of their info sessions in the Fall and volunteered to do a survey on the new RSPH website. As a thank you they mailed me a box of goodies (like a water bottle and t-shirt) which I thought was pretty cool. Everyone came across as really nice. Anyway, good luck everyone and congrats to those accepted! Hopefully the wait will be over soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emeyeseekayeewhy Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Congrats! When did you apply?

Bri2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Hi All: January is killing me; I just want to hear back from one school and it will squash the frequent panic attacks I've been having. I applied for the following programs with a great GPA from my MPH program (4.0), decent GREs (mid 150s range), tons of PH experience, and a great PS. Harvard, DS, Global Health and Population- received fin aid application and invitation to apply to summer admissions. Has anyone else received this? Does this bode well? NYU, PHD, Sociobehavioral Health Tulane, PHD, Global Community Health and Behavioral Sciences UT, PHD, Behavioral Sciences, Austin- someone agreed to be my chair at UT, if accepted, but I"m not sure how far this will get me Pitt, PHD, Behavioral and Community Health Sciences SLU, PHD, Behavioral Science and Health Education. Harvard and Pitt are my first choices, but at this point, I just hope I get in somewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I applied to Harvard too (Epi SD) and yes aslo received the financial aid application and the summer admissions thing. i think they send it to every applicant. I called HSPH admissions office last week. Apparently HSPH start sending decisions around mid-feb . I also applied to Pitt and Tulane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katethekitcat Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Got my official admissions package from BU. With the merit awad of $12K (non-repeating, of course), that brings the total tuition down from $84,800 to $72,800 - plus living costs in one of the country's most expensive cities.

SailsToTheMoon Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Anyone here apply to Yale Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases PhD program? If so, have you heard anything? Supposedly we should be notified this week if we are invited for an interview but it appears there is nothing on this site regarding any activity. Of course not everyone is on here and posting but I'm anxious and wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course not everyone is on here and posting but I'm anxious and wondering. No, I didn't, but from other posts/results search, people from the master's program in Epi Microbial Diseases have started hearing back. I would assume this means PhD interviews are close to being announced. You might try the biology forums - a lot of PhDs post there, and microbial disease is something of a crossover.
