[djjxjs]

Got into GW! Feeling very grateful for my acceptances so far, but am torn at having to make an actual decision!

Anyone know anything about the MPH program at Cornell? I think it's brand new.

got rejected from them. They are very selective only taking 40 people or so.

Me to!!! The decision is gonna be torture.

Ugh, every time Tufts sends out an email with an invitation to a student panel, my heart skips a beat!! This is torture! The Boston schools (BU/tufts), Penn and Columbia are all i am waiting on now...we can do this people!!

I got my Tufts decision 3 weeks from when my app was considered complete, it shouldn’t be too long now! Waiting on BU also!

I have been wanting to know this as well. Its my top choice currently. I know some information from emailing them but hardly any discussion online about it.

Offered a 50% tuition scholarship at University of Michigan today - I was accepted to GLEPI MPH on 1/15

Congrats!!!! Did they email you about getting a tuition scholarship?

 

[mchacha]

[fomitesandfrenchfries]

Congrats!!!! Did they email you about getting a tuition scholarship?

Thank you! Yes, they sent me an email - no update on my portal yet

Accepted to GWU. I had kinda forgotten that I applied there but a great moral booster to start the month!

 

[pimoa]

Has anyone heard back from UW or UC Berkeley? I know UW said that results will be released by mid-February, but I couldn't find any date for admission results for UC Berkeley

No to both. I reached out to berkeley, got a non committal reply

When did you apply? Did they send an email?

Yup, I received an email. I applied on 1/10! 🙂

Hi everyone! Sorry I know I’ve asked this before but I’m starting to get nervous and anxious (who isn’t at this point LOL) but has anyone heard anything back from UCLA Epi whether it’s an acceptance, rejected or waitlist? There were a few acceptances a couple days back but since then I haven’t seen anything yet. Apologies again for being repetitive!

Hi! I got accepted on 27 Jan, marked complete and for review 12 Dec

GUYS I GOT INTO COLUMBIA!!!!!

 

[ahughes1115]

Accepted to Columbia HPM! Applied 12/1, out for review 12/15, and just interviewed last week for reference.

 

[mahimas25]

I was filling out the BU supplemental app and accidentally clicked the "yes, I'm affiliated with BU" option even though I'm not. I went to the next step and then went back to double-check, but now I can't change my answer? I haven't submitted the app yet but the question is basically locked now. I emailed them but I'm not sure what to do- has this happened to anyone else? thank u guys!!

This happened to me too!!

 

[tooicy]

Thanks! Hopefully we'll hear back soon from them ://

 

[midomashakil]

Where are yall seeing ur decisions on the portal for columbia, or do they send an email? Also what concentrations? Seems like columbia is sending out some acceptances rn

 

[mphlife]

I saw that last year Emory started giving out financial aid packages around this time. I wonder if it’ll be the same this year!

In last year's thread, the first post I saw for aid from Emory was Feb 11th. So hopefully toward the end of next week!

 

[orangejuice14]

People hearing back from columbia and NYU!!! CONGRATS!! can yall share when you applied/under review and which dept? Thank you!

I got an email that said to check the portal for an update. You log in and there is a little prompt at the top that says “view update”! Though I’m on my phone so it could look different on a computer. And I got into Epi 🙂

I was SOPHAS verified on 12/30, but didn’t get my last letter of recommendation until 1/11 so my app wasn’t officially sent to Columbia for review until 1/14! (Cutting it close I know lol). I was accepted to epidemiology!

I applied to NYU HPM on 1/18, sent for review on 1/19, and heard back today, 2/2. Still waiting on Columbia (sent for review 1/10)! I haven't gotten an interview invitation, yet from Columbia.

If it makes anyone feel any better, mine wasn't sent for review until Jan 19th because of a late letter or rec! Still waiting to hear back, but I honestly am not expecting to for another few weeks

I wasn’t expecting it this soon either so you never know!! Haha I lowkey wish I did it earlier, but didn’t want to bother my boss too much for the letter lol

 

[ColdSore200]

Congrats to everyone who got into Columbia (and NYU)! If Columbia is releasing decisions rn hoping mine can be in the fold lmao

It def depends on the dept! I remember a couple weeks ago I saw a bunch for Epi one night and I’ve been a nervous wreck ever since haha

 

[orangejuice14]

Okkkk I applied to columbia pop fam on 12/1 although my portal says everything was received at the latest 12/10. I applied to NYU gh 1/12 and it was sent for review.. this is killlllling me fr.

 

[zubear]

I came across a nice spreadsheet from last year that gives an idea of stats that people have reported, and the accepted dates. Helped me with getting an idea on how late schools have responded in some cases.

MPH 2020 Compiled Results - Google Sheets

Not sure if it is helpful for anyone else. Thought I would post anyways.

Thank you for sharing this!! 😊

Yeah that's what I'm nervous about because my exam isn't until March 1 and people have already heard back from the schools I applied to. BU is the only one I applied to that won't consider it at all

I thought that most deadlines were in mid-January or early February? Correctly if I'm wrong but I assumed that you had to have all your materials including test scores sent in by then, would March not be a bit late?

On a side note, my GPA is similar but a bit lower than you, no GRE and I've been doing ok so far. I am assuming that many people didn't send in GRE scores this year so it won't make you stand out that much? I edited the **** out of my personal statements though, perhaps they put a lot of weight on that this year.

Hi! Where can you find out whether its gone for review or not? Thanks 🙂

 

[zubear]

Thank you for sharing this!! 😊

I just added a new tab for 2021. Thought we could do a favor for the next year applicants.

 

[Spartacous1]

I just sent an email to Columbia about my application. I asked about the status of it and to see if I could be considered for other programs if I don't get into EH.

 

[petrichorblue]

I just got into Columbia for Chronic Disease Epidemiology!!!! I'm so happy and so, so shocked- I honestly wasn't expecting to get in so I'm incredibly excited!!!

 

[iFky99]

lol, asking for a letter is so stressful I ended up with 5 total on SOPHAS cuz I assumed the worst and asked too many backup people hahaha. Mine wasn't sent in until mid-Jan either rip. Still waiting ...

 

[Socialworkwoman]

hey guys! sorry to ask again - but what time do y'all hear back from Columbia? I'm wondering if they just sent out a bunch at one time or if I should hopefully expect something later into the evening too.

Yeah you don’t want to be too pushy but i would get so nervous they would forget to submit it and make everything late. You got this!!!
