  1. Great to hear! Let me know if you have any questions about the program/applying. Good luck!
  2. Hi, All: My name is Katie and I am a current Health Psychology and Clinical Science Ph.D student at The City University of New York (CUNY). I am writing to tell you about our new Ph.D. program; our first class was enrolled in 2013. We are excited to be offering a curriculum that provides a true commitment to elucidating the interaction between physical and mental health from a rigorously empirical biopsychosocial perspective. Students will receive a thorough grounding in both clinical science and health psychology, including current theoretical perspectives, the conduct and evaluation of scientific research methods, understanding of the behavioral and biological mechanisms of psychopathology and physical illness, the conduct of prevention and intervention trials across diverse populations and in diverse settings, and addressing health disparities in a sociocultural context. Our faculty include Cheryl Carmichael, Tracy Dennis, Joel Erblich, Sarit Golub, Renee Goodwin, Michael Hoyt, Doug Mennin, Regina Miranda, Jeff Parsons, Laura Reigada, Tracey Revenson, Margie Rosario, Deborah Walder, and Mariann Weierich. Research areas cover a wide range of topics in clinical science and health. Further, these faculty have formal and informal relationships at premiere medical and public health institutions throughout New York City that offer collaborative opportunities for research and externship. We will be admitting a small group of highly qualified predoctoral students for Fall 2015. Details are available at http://www.gc.cuny.edu/Page-Elements/Academics-Research-Centers-Initiatives/Doctoral-Programs/Psychology/Training-Areas/Health-and-Clinical or at our more detailed companion site, http://cunyclinicalandhealthgrad.net/ But, anyone who has specific questions may contact us directly. Admitted students are supported by multi-year packages that include stipends, tuition waivers, and health insurance. The program will be seeking accreditation with APA-CoA and, in time, PCSAS. The deadline for Fall applications is December 1st. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out! You can contact me here on gradcafe or through email at: koneill@gc.cuny.edu Thanks!
  3. Ditto. It seems like they were on point the previous years according the the posts...
  4. I just received an email to log in and check my status --- rejected. Although I already accepted elsewhere, there were really slow this year it seems!
  5. I haven't heard anything either --- I emailed awhile ago with no response. It really turned me off -- so I accepted elsewhere.
  6. Weird! It wasn't like that this morning when I added my offer!
  7. I have my MS in Experimental Psychology concentrating in Behavioral Neuroscience; granted I also have about 2.5 years of research experience at my current job in my current area of interest, but I received offers and interviews for PhD programs (not clinical though). Personally, I feel I got offers because of my research experience and LOR's.
  8. On my phone. Lol. I thought about the same thing and ended up writing aomething like, I'm glad we had such a stimulating conversation about X, I thought about it the whole way home ... Guess it worked. Lol. I got accepted some days later.
  9. I imagine that there was something that stood out to this program about you, maybe what you said in your personal statement, or letters of recommendation, that made them want to meet and interview you. For a Psy.D program I think that they might focus more on the clinical aspects and they might be less research orientated and more theory and practice, so that can work towards your advantage. It might not be a bad thing to prep for, that question, and work in what experience you do have and really work on how you would "fit" with their program. During the interview phase, I believe it's more about them assessing fit rather then focusing on why you don't have any research experience. Just my thoughts!
  10. Ditto to what everyone else has said. I haven't heard from them but have heard from basically every other school, with the exception of UConn Social.
  11. Has anyone heard from UConn Social or Stony Brook Social/Health?
  12. I hear you on the waiting process --- and the weather (I'm in NJ!). Hope you hear something soon.
