I got an interview request from Columbia today. I applied to their Epidemiology program. Thanks to everyone providing updates, I've been following this thread religiously :) 

Congratulations! What other programs did you apply to? What are your interests?

Did anyone hear back on HPM from Harvard, UMD, UNC or Hopkins? 

I got an email requesting a Skype interview at UMD yesterday.

Columbia is offering phone interviews on the same day as NYU is doing in-person interviews yikes 

For NYU is it the one-on-one interviews or the whole 9 yards? (e.g. the group interviews and so forth)

They haven't sent out a schedule for the day but it's 8-4 so probably a bit of everything

Do you guys think that more people applied this year that in past years? I'm seeing applications per program in the 100+ range.

Both NYU & Columbia said they received 150 applications

Has anyone applied to Oregon State University, Rutgers, UConn, or Colorado this cycle?

I applied to Oregon State for PhD in global health. Apparently it's new, so any insight/info would help from others.

Is anyone else going a little bit crazy? I haven't heard back from any of the schools I applied to and I'm steadily losing my mind. Please tell me I'm not alone.

I'm right there with you... This is painful!
