I heard once that's there's a preference for Friday's. I guess having the weekend is nice for good or bad news? I really hope we hear this week! This has not bee a productive work week.

Really great data point (and great for you)! Good to know which programs don't "actually" require an interview even if some people might get them.

Some of the program areas conduct Skype or phone interviews with applicants, but not all do. I can tell you that we are still in the midst of reviewing applications and making admission decisions. We enter decisions as they are made, but many program areas wait to make some of their decisions until they have had a chance to review the entire pool of applicants. We strive to all admissions decisions entered by March 1st and I foresee no reason why that would not be the case this year."

B_behavioral_11 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Honestly, I have come to terms that though some schools have released decisions here and there that I will not hear from the majority of my programs until week of Feb 19th and even into the following week.

redroses310 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Has anyone else applied to USC’s Population, Health and Place program and heard back yet? I emailed Graduate Admissions to confirm they received a foreign transcript and they said they were still reviewing my application, but I know they’ve started sending acceptances. I’m trying to decipher whether that means they’re sending decisions as they review applications or whether I should be expecting an interview and/or rejection.

eeeeerin89 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 (edited) Did anyone else apply to UW’s metrics and implementation science global health PhD? It’s the last one I’m waiting to hear from and inevitably my #1 choice ?. (if interest for data points: accepted at Pitt epi, UW epi, UGA Epi, Tulane global biostatistics; rejected by emory Epi) Edited February 10, 2018 by eeeeerin89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
