This is the best news I have heard all week! CongratsAccepted yesterday Interviewed early December and was initially placed in "acceptance range." I sent in a letter of interest w/ updates, so if anyone's on the fence about sending something in I'd say go for it!

I thought they would wait until may to start sending out but this is giving me hope!!Accepted yesterday Interviewed early December and was initially placed in "acceptance range."

Who is thinking about doing the MD/MPH program at Tulane? Having a hard time trying to decide whether it is just adding more stress to getting the MD degree...Any current students input on this?
If I get myself off of the waitlist I am considering the MD/MPH but I just don’t know how much it will help my career. I am finishing a grad certificate in public health so I think I can transfer credits towards it but MD degrees are hard LolWho is thinking about doing the MD/MPH program at Tulane?

My student interview is doing it, and we talked quite extensively about her experience. Apparently, the summer semester is super hectic and condensed. So, for sure...it's definitely stressful. Classes also begin the first Monday of June, so you're basically sacrificing your last summer of free time. If you're going to do the MD/MPH, the MPH component, it has to be something you really, really want to do. Many students end up finishing the entire program up in 5 years, instead of 4 (according to our student ambassadors). I wasn't able to get a straight answer as to why, but that's something to take into consideration when deciding to pursue this path. Despite this rant, I say go for it! I'm doing an MPH now and love it (just can't imagine doing it during medical school).Who is thinking about doing the MD/MPH program at Tulane?

Same I’m a full time PH student and even though it’s pretty easy to get solid grades it does require work. The material can be pretty boring at times and If I am sleep deprived PH text books are the last thing I want to open. One of our assignments this semester is to design a fictitious refugee camp for 4000 people in Sudan which would be very hard to do with the workload of med school.My student interview is doing it, and we talked quite extensively about her experience.

4th year here. I don't know anyone from our class who is taking the 5th year to finish the MPH because they couldn't do it in 4. People who do the MD/MPH in 5 years instead of 4 took the extra year for an entirely different reason such as:
- wanting to do a research year for a competitive specialty
- not being able to decide on a specialty before applying for residency and needing something productive to do for a year while they figured their life out
- buying themselves a year to couples match with someone in the class below
- etc
In short, it's totally doable to finish the degree in 4 years and most people do just that.
But is it possible to also do research (such as the DeBakey program), student clinics and other activities along with MPH or is it very limiting with the time?
...even though it’s pretty easy to get solid grades it does require work.
From what my MPH friends say, they also didn't go for "solid" MPH grades. Academically, they cared more about the MD material because they were going for competitive specialities (or competitive locations) and wanted to do well on step, while their MPH transcript wasn't going to impact their career choices as long as they did enough to get the degree.
I heard that 66% of interviewies get accepted, which includes waitlist. Hoping that that's correct!Does anyone know the odds of coming off the waitlist or how many people end up coming off the waitlist?
That's what msar saidI heard that 66% of interviewies get accepted, which includes waitlist. Hoping that that's correct!
I think they are the same.I interviewed in 09/2017 and was placed in acceptance range. Just checked the portal yesterday and it now says waitlist. Anyone got any idea what that means? Was my file reviewed again? What's the difference between acceptance range and waitlist?
Has anyone else emailed Dr. Morris LOI, updates, TYLs, etc and not get a response? I'm ok with getting no response, but (on the other hand) my emails may be going into her spam folder

Interviewed 01/24 and placed in acceptance range today!
I think on Wednesday they said they had two more: 3/2 (today) and then one more after that next week. Could very well have heard that wrong, but sounds like next week they are wrapping up.Does anyone know if they're still interviewing/sending ii?
