Sorry that was a typo I meant non ranked, so it’s just a general pool 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pa98173jd Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 For those recently waitlisted, did your email also say "The admissions committee was impressed with you as a candidate? " 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feistymango8 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 I received an initial interview invite on 8/19 but they haven't gotten back to me on a date and time. Should I email them about it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zackc831 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 For everyone who has been accepted. Besides paying the deposits is there anything else we are supposed to do? ( I also do not have any unfinished coursework) Is it good to email back? Or is there a group for accepted students? I am not 100% positive I will be attending the school yet.

I was also told that the seats were pretty much filled at the time so they were mostly just placing candidates on the waitlist, so I asked about how the waitlist worked (candidates picked randomly from the pool vs ranked) and got the answer.

The person I emailed did say the pool of applicants would be reassessed when they reconvene on the matter so I assume that’s when the ranking happens, I don’t think the final decision is random but it sounds like the pool as it is now has no real order.

I'm still waiting for a response as well. Makes me a little nervous! I may call tomorrow if I can find a good number and make sure that my response was not mistaken for a withdrawal of my application, as some people had mentioned could be a possibility. I hate to bother them with these things, but I feel like I should make sure that wasn't the case? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jparra1 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 For those of you who have not yet seized the opportunity, you should use sites like these to build connections, meet people, and network, in addition to learning more about programs and matriculant stats. There is nothing more rewarding and beneficial towards personal growth, both career wise and socially, than to meet people with similar interests, personality types, and aspirations in life. Once, years ago, I met a girl on one of these types of threads who was also applying to MPH programs and we exchanged contact information and began to chat and keep each other updated about our respective application cycles to MPH programs. Now, 5 years and a masters degree later (we both ended up attending the same MPH program in the same class), we are very, very close friends and colleagues. It just goes to show you that some of these connections can be more fruitful than anticipated! For anyone who wants to chat, please dm me and I'd love to talk all things PA (and even life)! 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did anyone else get that email? Yes I did I'm glad you asked. I submitted it last week. I was getting nervous since the responses sounded like most if not all the seats were filled!
