DraPHt2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 @Pszczolka thanks for sharing! I didn't get an interview either so I wouldn't be surprised if a rejection is forthcoming. I wonder why they are staggering the responses?

I didn't get an interview either so I wouldn't be surprised if a rejection is forthcoming. I wonder why they are staggering the responses? I think they have a much bigger pool of people they would accept versus spaces so they rank them and move down the list if they hear someone isn't accepting. Since there aren't the same kind of deadlines as for undergrad (or even Master's) I think they do it this way instead of officially waitlisting people. I have no proof of that, that's just my theory!
AlphacentauriC Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Yes! Got accepted by Tulane for the DrPH! Tulane was my 1st choice! Got the email today! And that....is sweet sweet sweet!

Getting into a first choice is always the best feeling Do you mind sharing any financial aid/scholarship that you received? I only received the acceptance letter via email. The letter was from the general school of public health. They said the letters/emails from the specific department will be the one containing funding information. I am waiting for those emails/letters now...

Have you heard anything from Texas A&M as of yet? Still waiting patiently (even though an email I received on 03/09 stated we should all be hearing back this week)... Yeah, tough choice. I really have to decide: going for the job or giving that up and choosing Tulane. What makes it very very hard is that I have worked all my life to get such a job. On the other hand, I have spent a lifetime fighting to get my drph, literally. I'm leaning on giving up the job (even though I already accepted it) and going to Tulane. I am waiting for funding information. If I get full funding...then I am choosing Tulane. I have heard nothing from Texas A&M. I think I have only received one email from them, back in Jan, about how my file was complete. Good luck and hang in there!
AlphacentauriC Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) Admitted to The University of Kentucky! Received the letter today! My results so far; Rejections: Tufts -DrPH, UMinnesota -PhD, UAB - DrPH Admits: Tulane - DrPH, Kentucky -DrPH Waiting: Ohio State -PhD, Boston University -DrPH, UIC - DrPH, Texas - DrPH, Texas A&M -DrPH Effing mistake by the admission office, rendering my application 'defunct': UCLA! (I could have used the $45+$90 application fees to buy myself a sweet lunch, used the remainder to go to dinner! ). Edited March 25, 2016 by AlphacentauriC
AlphacentauriC Posted April 5, 2016 Posted April 5, 2016 04/05/16: I received my beautiful rejection from BU! The admission committee claimed that they received lots of applications of only 6-8 slots. 04/04/16: I received a sweet 'deferral' from matriculation from Tulane. So, I have one year to check out the dream job...if I am not happy...see ya in Nola in Fall 2017!
AlphacentauriC Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 04/06/16: rejected by utexas houston for their drph program, via their myuth website.
AlphacentauriC Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 got my sweet rejection from Texas A&M today, via email. good luck guys...
FutureDRofSomething Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 @AlphacentauriC @CTDrPH @CrimsonEyes @DraPHt2016 Yall what type of questions did you get asked in your interviews? I have my interview with A&M this Thursday!
DrPH2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 Has anyone that applied to DrPH programs had interviews, been accepted, rejected, etc? If so, where?
Racqustar Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) Hi there! Applied to the DrPH programs at JHSPH, Harvard, UNC and UIC. Just interviewed (teleconference) with 2 alumnae/faculty from UNC this past Tuesday. Checked JH's and Harvard's admissions portals today and both apps are still under review. No other info yet ?

My application for JH still says under review also.
drph24 Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 I had my interview with HSPH DrPH Committee member 2 weeks ago, and last week they invite me for another interview with the Dean of Academic Affairs. I am unsure why the double interview, but the second one asked more about leadership roles. Anyone else got a second interview?
