DrPH-Applicant Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Waitlisted via the portal for Hopkins HPM - so those who haven't heard back yet via e-mail check your portal! The portal says that the formal email with waitlist info will be sent in 24-48 hours. (But if anybody knows anything about how this process works let me know!) Good luck everyone and congrats to those who have already received acceptances. DrPHtobe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I received an email back when I submitted my SOPHAS application that gave me the link to the jhsph application portal. Once you follow the link, you will see on the left side "Application Review Complete" and when you click that you will see the admission decision. I saw my rejection on there yesterday, and just now received an email from the school informing me of their decision. Hope this helps! Good luck!

Globalhealthgirl Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I received an email from Johns Hopkins today unfortunately it was a rejection letter. Just waiting on Boston University but assuming that too is a rejection since I haven't heard anything yet. Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted and best of luck to those still waiting!

DrPH PA Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Unfortunately I just received my rejection from JHU. I was also rejected from UNC and am waiting on UIC. I’m very disappointed and am going to spend the next year strengthening my resume. Can those that got into JHU HPM share their stats? Maybe that will give me a better idea of what they are looking for. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrPH PA Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 GraddCaffe Thank you so much for sharing! I have my masters in physician assistant studies with a 3.75 GPA and am a practicing PA with 5 years clinical experience. I’m also a veteran and was a nurse in the Army. I’m currently in charge of many quality improvement projects at the large academic institution where I practice. I didn’t do so great when I retook my GREs this year so I wonder if that’s what did it or if they really are looking for an MPH. Thank you so much!

Not looking forward to the cold, but my sister is doing her PhD in clinical psych there so an acceptance would be extra special. I had emailed the program manager at the end of January and she said "I hope to have updates [for you] by the end of February or early March." It's early March already; put us out of our misery!!!

Well, I am not entirely sure if they do interviews with everyone. They emailed me on 1/30 and said: "...if selected for an interview, you will be contacted in the upcoming weeks. You can expect a final decision in 7-10 weeks." I guess we are approaching that 7th week mark right about now...which track did you apply to? That would be amazing to attend the same university as your sister! Like you, I applied to a mix of DrPH and PhD programs. I have six more to hear back from. Sigh.

Yeah I think this is for DrPH candidates. For the PhD in CFH, we interviewed 2/2 and were told they had an internal decision deadline of 2/15. We received an email on that date saying it would be a few weeks before we would hear, but I wasn't necessarily expecting 4 weeks later. Curious about what's going on...

Ebou Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Had an interview USF yesterday and am hoping all goes well. They said they would be making their final decisions the end of this week and begin sending letters out in the next two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
