Is there a portal to check incessantly for the Columbia app? 

lol there is — I only have access because I applied last year and was rejected. The portal was where they posted my decision. This year I checked and I saw my new application was there , but now it has been blank for these past two weeks.

I got the second one from Harvard (neither of them are my POIs....) and the GWU invitation as well! But I didn't apply to UNC hhh.  Good luck!

You interviewed with Harvard PHS SBS?

Long time lurker here. For those interested in NYU, I just got an email invitation to an interview day. Hopefully those of you that applied also received good news! I also applied to UCLA, but assume since I haven't heard back yet that I was rejected

Congrats!! Out of curiosity, which track did you apply to? 

[KBA83]

Health Policy and Management. I have a degree in policy and not an MPH, so I'm a bit of a career changer.

I know it may be an odd track, but curious anyone applied to USC Population, Health and Place PhD program and heard anything back? Thank you!

Had two interviews via Skype last Thursday and Friday. I'm expecting they'll send out acceptances/rejections some time during the week of the 18th-24th. Perhaps sooner though!

Got invitation from NYU as well! I am in SBS track.

[GradNYC]

When I emailed the Academic Program Director, he said that they would be reviewing apps in December and January, and notifying people around mid-February. It is my understanding that some students are applied without interviews, but others are asked to interview for further review.

I was checking my UMD application portal and my decision was posted on the 31st - in for PhD in Behavioral and Community Health! No email was sent to me yet though or any further contact from the Department.

[tiyapakhi]

Hey everyone! I saw that someone heard from USC Health Behavior on survey. Any idea if they are done contacting people or not?

[Hongchao]

Just got a rejection from UPitt, PhD in epidemiology.

Same here! I also have a degree in policy and got the invitation from NYU HPM yesterday.

Anyone want to claim the UPitt Behavioral and Community Health Sciences acceptance from today?  I have my interview this afternoon and was wondering if you interviewed earlier this week or got accepted sans interview?

[vitorstardelli]

Has anyone heard from Boston University's Epidemiology PhD program yet? I've seen two people posting interviews in the "results" section, but that's all so far...
