Sorry to hear about your rejection I'm not sure if you're referring to me or the person who got into clinical but I'll answer anyway.
My GRE scores were mediocre: 78 percentile verbal, 80 percentile analytic writing, and 37 percentile quantitative. I have a 4.0 GPA over my four years of undergrad. I also have a lot of research experience and several conference presentations.
Hope this was helpful!

Hi everyone,
I'm wondering if there's anyone out there starting at Western in Fall 2015. My program is a MSc in social psychology and am interested to talk to some other incoming students (in psych and other programs as well).

I don't know if it was really an interview (and they never referred to it as such). They just said they wanted to call me to talk about the program at U of S. Since they asked me to fill out the form for internal funding opportunities, it seemed like they wanted to let me know they were wanting to accept me (I may be overly optimistic with this thought).
I was contacted by POI to discuss the program. They also asked me to fill out a form so they could put my name forward for an internal scholarship. I have already accepted another offer so I turned down the interview.
I don't know anyone who has done their graduate studies there recently. I do know someone who is currently a PhD student at my university who did her undergrad there. She has nothing but great things to say about the school and the profs. I know it's not really the same though
I had a potential supervisor from Carleton tell me to let him know if I got a better funding package elsewhere and he'd see what he could do. I did get a better funding package but decided to go to the other school so I didn't pursue this offer to see what would happen.
I don't think it is a bad thing to do though. It lets them know other people want you and they should give you more money!
Hope this helps
