MPH / MSPH 2021: Applied, Accepted, Waitlisted, Rejected, Attending

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
rutgers is being weiddddd lmao
They are... I reached out Kamal (director of admissions/recruitment) and he responded on 2/2

"great to hear from you, and I hope all is well. Your application has been received and is complete. You will be notified once a decision has been made by the committee. if you need anything else, please feel free to reach out to us. "

but nothing since 🙁 lol
 
I only have UNC and Emory to hear back from. I'm honestly shocked that I've had such quick turn around time, since I didn't submit my apps until 1/8-1/14, but I'm becoming so anxious and impatient on the decisions left. I'm just ready to know my options and make my decision. Those of you that have been waiting months have more than my sympathy.

Side note, I really can't imagine myself anywhere but Tulane. If anyone has any advice about the MPHTM program I'll gladly take it.
 
im assuming its really easy to change certs at columbia
It is! I spoke with a current student there who said that your certs aren't locked in at all right now, just kind of so the school can get a feel for everyone's interests it seems. You formally apply to your cert during your first year (you usually get your top choice, so don't worry about that).
 
For those of you who have heard back from Yale MPH, how long did the review take? I got the email that my app is complete and moving into the review process on 1/21 which is ~4 weeks ago....should I expect to hear back this week??
Exactly a month. Up for review 12/19. Accepted 01/20. They mentioned in admissions meeting today that they intend on having all decisions out by early march.
 
Has anyone heard back from U Washington for Health Services?
I’m also waiting on Harvard but obviously they haven’t sent anything out yet.

hey there 🙂 I applied to UW for MPH in COPHP and heard back. It's a bit of a niche program so unsure of its timeline in comparison to another MPH dept within UW. Hope this helps! I am also waiting to hear back from Harvard (MPH 65). Hoping for all of us to hear back soon!

I'm actually thinking about changing certificates. I haven't heard anyone mentioned that they're changing.. not sure how to go about it as yet
 
I checked my portal but got an email 2min later
My portal is updated and all looks how its supposed to but I have not gotten an email yet-should I be concerned? It looks very different than last time so I'm pretty sure its legit.

I talked to current columbia students and they said you don't have to officially make up your mind until like October and its SUPER easy to change. I'm changing mine to Applied Biostatistics from Child Youth
 
I just checked the portal, still haven't received an email!

I was accepted a few weeks ago and found out by checking the portal - I never got an email to check the portal! I think the system sends an email when you don’t check it/don’t know it’s there.

If you have the official admissions letter with your name on it and the option to accept your admission and submit your deposit I'm sure it's real! For Emory I didn't receive an official email until 2 or 3 days after my portal was updated.
 
I applied to JHU MSPH for Global disease and Epi control (verified 1/15 - sent to review 1/24) and I haven’t heard anything.... does this mean a rejection? I tried reaching out but they gave me a generic response. Really nervous now.
