hank you for your interest in attending Harvard School of Public Health. The Committee on Admissions and Degrees has carefully reviewed your application for admission to the Doctor of Science degree program in the Department of Global Health and Population for the academic year 2009-2010. I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you admission for this academic year. While we realize that this decision may be disappointing, we would like you to know that the selection of candidates who best met the criteria established by the faculty was very challenging. Unfortunately, the number of applicants exceeded the number of candidates we were able to accept. Once again, we appreciate your interest in attending the Harvard School of Public Health and wish you great success in your educational and professional endeavors. Sincerely, Vincent W. James Director of Admissions

Ah.....!!!

The waiting person: I emailed them for updates and they got back pronto that when they are ready they wills send me a link to check..this was lask week This morning I emailed the person who last updated my status but she is at some kind of training till March 20 Whatever they decide is fine, I am pretty much over it at this point. As noted there was acceptances for this track on this board...whoever got in is not here then I emailed the prof in charge of the program and he was out of the country, he said the department was coming along fine in thier decisions... All cryptic at best....if you are still counting on them, I wish you luck, but I am going to concentrate on coming up with my academic plan to complete my course load and get to other things

Received a phone call in February from a professor stating they "would love to have me!" but have yet to see an update online or receive a letter.

MPH Epi program

MPH program for Summer Enrollment

10K merit scholarship

To the person below. I also haven't heard anything yet. Admissions said decisions will be made all the way until the end of March?! is this false (getting nervous)?

To the person who hasn't heard anything, yet. All admission decisions have been sent out, so If you haven't heard anything, I am afraid no news is bad news...also wondering did anyone get into the joint Economics - Global Health track of this department? I see only rejections for this track this year.

anyone hear about scholarships ?

To the question below: Q700 V570 A5.0 GPA 3.77 but limited international health experience and research interests not in strong areas of the department

to the person who posted below: do you mind sharing your stats? i too was rejected and i am curious what your UGPA and GREs are?

Waiting and waiting and waiting and ... Bummer. Would have been nice to live in boston, at least I have a few good alternatives up my sleeve...
