Did anyone else apply to DrPH programs for the Fall of 2021? If so, where'd you apply? I applied to: JHU, BU, Rutgers, and UT - Houston. Best of luck to everyone!
Any Other DrPH Applicants for 2020-2021?

Hi! I also applied to the DrPH in Community Health Practice at UT Houston. When did you submit your application, and how long before you were offered an interview?
Hey! I submitted my app 10/15 and had my interview invite 12/8 and interview on 12/10. The email stated they will interview all applicants before making an admissions decision. It was like 20-30 to learn about you, research interests, and etc really laid back. Then have 1 hour to do a 500-750 word essay about your research and populations you wish to serve unless they do different for everyone.

Got you. Best of luck!Nope just that one
Hi Folks,
I am another UT Health candidate and currently taking courses in public health before embarking on a doctoral degree. I actually debated quite a bit between a DrPH and a PhD. I went the PhD route and applied for it since its one less credits, I am more research focused and passionate about it. Besides that, I have the management and leadership competencies through an MBA and also the experience. Just lacking the public health knowledge for the most part. I am going with the Behavioral and Health Promotion track with minor in Epi (Dallas campus).
Have you heard from UT Health at all? I got an acknowledgement when I applied in December.

Which one did you apply for? I applied for the "Health Equity and Social Justice" track. I am waiting as well. From the last years posts, it looks like decision are sent in March.
I applied to DrPH implementation science concentration. Yeas, from what I am hearing it seems that we will be hearing in March. I have no idea if there is any interview to expect!
I got into the DrPH program last Wednesday if that helps. Im doing Community Health Practice in Houston.
