Hey all, I paid my deposit for Hopkins last week and was wondering if anyone else has? If anyone's interested send me a message and lets create a facebook group or something. 
General MHA Acceptance/Rejection 2012-2013
- Thread starter Katertot
- Start date
I just received an acceptance from University of South Florida!!
I don't see any rankings on US News for this school (for health management). It is ranked #21 for Public Health though. Does anyone have any info about this school? Don't see many posts on here about their MHA program either.
Thanks!

Hey everyone! Congrats to those accepted who have already decided where they will attend!
I just received an acceptance e-mail into UIC's MHA program.
I am having a difficult time deciding between Emory's Health Policy & Management program and UIC's MHA.
I am most concerned with financing my degree and prospects after graduation, just like everyone else. Both schools are pricey; both have a huge metropolitan network.
Emory pros: much, much, much bigger name, 3 semesters, lower cost of living.
UIC pros: might be a more appropriate degree for healthcare consult/admin which is what I think I may want to pursue, closer to "home", though I am not from Illinois.
Is anyone else facing a similar decision? I'd appreciate any advice! PM me please.

What benefits does a MPH have over MHA and vice versa?

I was just wondering if any of you had some input on current, accredited online MHA programs? I am currently a pharmacy student and want to start my MHA so I will graduate with a dual degree. However, I am kind of weary about the online programs.
I have been contacted by a representative from Ohio University, not Ohio State, about their program and I am really interested. However, I would just like to see if anyone has comments, advice, information about either online programs, or this program in general.
Thanks!

Wow, this forum is helping a lot! I was wondering if I could get some opinions from you all? I am set to graduate from OSU as a Biology major (originally set for med school, but recently have decided against it). My GPA is around a 3.0, Gre Quant. 151 and Verbal 152, Writing 4.0. Definitely not good grades/scores.
I was considering applying to the MHA program here at OSU (can't afford to go out of state) but while this is more a business-directed degree, I *think* I would rather go for a policy-directed MPH program, but the only Health Services Management and/or Policy degree offered here at OSU is for those with a preexisting grad degree.
Sooooo... Long story long, based on my scores, grades, and minimal experience what should I do? Should I go ahead and apply to the MHA program because it won't hurt, try and apply elsewhere to get the degree that I REALLY want, get a degree such as an MBA and then apply to the HSMP program if they don't do away with it, or take a year off and retake the GRE/get some work experience?
Just looking for opinions here. The app deadlines for OSU is Saturday Feb. 15 and I have never felt more lost.
Thanks in advance!

The more I've read online, the more it seems an MHA is enough to stand alone vs an MPH (seems to require higher degree?). However I really do enjoy policy and am *thinking* as of right now I would like to do something policy-related with the government or something? Why do you say MHA over MPH? I am taking a year off to think over things and get some experience, but I am curious about your perspective. Also, in terms of career, what are you hoping to do?
How are you liking/did u like GWU?
how did u like the mha program at gwu?
How do u like the program?? D.C area so far? I just interviewed with them this morning.
