To those that successfully get decision from JHU: give tips on how to finagle them from the admissions representatives! I called them a few days back over other matters and they stone cold told me that "we don't do decision over the phone."
Hello all. I am new to the forum and am trying to get a feel for where people are. The only place I applied to was UNC's Health Behavior and Health Education program. I submitted my application on 12/13/11 and it was "complete" a few days later. I emailed the admissions lady last week and she informed me my "application was still under review and would be reviewed at the next admissions meeting at the end of this month (January)" and I should hear shortly thereafter. Is this just them beating around the bush? Do I have any hope? Has anyone else heard from UNC and if so, from UNC's HBHE program? I got into the University of Michigan last year and deferred due to cost so I am really hoping to go to UNC since I'm an NC resident and UNC undergraduate. The wait is torturing me!
I just recently got rejected from the HBHE program and submitted my app on the same day that you did. So they're probably taking you in consideration for it

Hi all,
I'm happy to report I just got my first acceptance at Tulane for Epi. I am in shock but so glad to have at least an option for the fall. Now the freaking out about housing, jobs, etc begins. Anyone have any advice/things you wish you had known about either Tulane or making this decision in general?

I was accepted into the Department of Health Policy and Management at the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health today! It was the only school I applied to and I am so excited!!!
Hey-- figured I'd finally post instead of stalking:
GPA: 3.75
GRE: V: 580, QR: 780, Writing: 4.5
Undergrad Majors: Economics and Public Health
Applied: BU, Emory, Michigan, Minnesota, Yale, UCLA, Harvard
Accepted: Emory(EPI), Michigan(EPI), Yale(Biostats)
Rejections: None (so far!)
Straight from Undergrad.
Ahh! Decisions to make!
Congrats! Out of curiosity, what was your GPA/GRE? I applied to HPM too, but I couldn't find any info on class profile #'s.
It seems that each dept/program at Hopkins is on its own admissions schedule so don't bother comparing yourself to others. I submitted my application for Hopkins much earlier than you (10/20) and still haven't heard back. After asking the Biostats dept this week, they said I would likely hear in the next week or so about the ScM program.Hey Guys,
I think this is weird but I have this feeling that I'm gonna be rejected from hopkins.
Reason: A friend of mine whom I submitted before as already gotten an acceptance and many others. Yeah I have score of 1230 which might be pretty lower than what they require. Truth is Hopkins (without funding) isn't my top choice. So I guess I'll just strike it out of ma head and forget about them.
I called last week and this week and they are still telling me same story that my application is still under review. Oh well

Ahhh I missed it in my e-mail; I was accepted and got a similar letter like you!! hahaThanks! I received an email that told me to log onto my NYU application. Once I logged on, there was a link that said "your decision is now available". When I clicked the link, it showed the formal letter and my award was included. NYU only sends email notifications, you will not get anything in the mail regarding your decision.
NYU requires a fast turn around though.. they want me to decide by 2/16/!! ahh
I'm still waiting for other schools so I'm not sure what to do... what track did you apply to? Good luck!
I'm still waiting on UNC HBHE as well- I was told I'd have an answer sometime between now and April...
How did you defer your matriculation? The HSPH website reads that deferral is not an option for that particular program.

Hey guys,
So here's what's new.
I woke up this morning to a mail from UNC Admissions committee which read
"Dear DrRayden
The Admissions Committee of the Department of Maternal and Child Health at the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health has reviewed your application and is extending an invitation to you for an applicant interview. We believe that personal interaction between members of our department (students and faculty) with potential students is quite important. It helps us to understand your needs and expectations, and provides you with an opportunity to ask questions to determine if this is the right program for you.
