stickynote Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Hey all, I'm anxiously awaiting decisions. I applied to a number of PhD programs in Health Policy and Health Services Research. Just looking to see where everyone else is at? Where did you apply? Any Interviews? Any Acceptances or rejections? The results page seems sparse with anything from 2014 in the Health Policy field, so I thought I would start the discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

entdeckung Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Finally a thread has popped up regarding these sorts of programs! I've applied to/heard from: Harvard Health Policy - interview invitation, based on the timing in relation to someone's posting on the results board, it seems that invites were definitely not necessarily sent out all at once Columbia sociomedical sciences- waiting/no word Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weiwentg Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I applied for a bunch of health policy PhD programs. Penn State: accepted University of Washington (Seattle): accepted Brown University: on the way to interview right now I haven't yet heard from: University of Minnesota UNC Harvard Brandeis Rejected by BU. It wasn't the best fit, so I'm not worried. Has anyone applied/heard from Minnesota's HP/HSR program? As I said, I applied and I haven't heard. Hello all, I applied to: GWU UNC Yale UIC UM for a PhD in health policy and management Did anyone hear back from any of these schools? Thanks in advance! As I said, not from UNC. And as I asked on the other thread, does UM mean Minnesota, Michigan, or some other state? The two folks who applied to Harvard for the ESS track - I applied to that one as well. Harvard is a stretch (not very good MPH grades), but best wishes to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbar Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Re: University of Minnesota, I contacted PhD coordinator, and she said that adcom committee meets again in 2 weeks, so presumably news will follow (if people hear earlier, please post). She also said that no decision/notification at this point is not necessairly bad news, but I have my doubts (am assuming offers have already been made, based on past history of results).
