I applied to their Psychology & Neuroscience Cognition and Cognitive Neuroscience... Haven't heard anything. Did see a result about Cognition Neuro that said all interview invites were already extended, but I'm not sure if that was Psychology and Neuro or just Neuro. Fingers crossed it's just Neuro

oh that's my favorite! I love people who inform you they know everything about psychology from reading US magazine and their little tidbits, or from taking Psych 101 in undergrad, and therefore can't possibly understand what more you would learn in the five years it takes to earn a doctorate. Especially because psychology is "pretty much just common sense, right?"

Okay, thanks. I didn't know the policy on calling and asking, so I appreciate your help!

Thanks for your help! So I can pretty much assume rejections if I don't hear by mid January? What about programs whose deadline isn't until much later than the average program (WVU BIMS- deadline February 15)?

Wow, February 15... isn't that supremely late? I feel like most have their interviews before/around that time... I guess no news isn't good news. I suppose I will continue obsessively checking my email and cursing when it's just from Spotify.

That's cool. I'll probably go neuro, but there's so much overlap in that program that I feel like I'll get a little bit of everything.

Haha I actually go to WVU; Psychology major here (: I am applying to both, as both areas encompass my interests (and I already do research with both programs). What are you applying to? How did you decide on WVU? I've only seen one other person applying here (:

I'm not sure... I received a phone call and an official email extending an offer to interview for their neuroscience program 12/18. I just joined this forum, and thought I'd update anyone who hadn't heard. Try not to worry, I think many places haven't finished extending invites because of the oddly timed holiday season. UVA Neuro is the only one I've heard from.

I haven't heard back from any of my behavioral neuro programs yet... only one neuro program has contacted me for an interview. Other than that, no news is good news?

UVA has sent out their invitation requests. Anyone hear about Emory??

University of Virginia has sent out their neuroscience Ph.D. interview notifications! February 6-8. (:
