After the open house, most of the profs have sent in their recommendations for admission for first round. Im not 100% sure if the admission letters have gone out officially. There is a chance that some of the priority POI have turned down the students they brought to the open house/decided not to take a student, or that people will decline outright though, so its possible there may be a couple POIs who will do interviews between now and around April. The people that arent still being considered as backups/possibilities for other pois will likely get a second round of rejections sometime soon.

Do you know how long it takes for the official offers to go out ?

Does anyone know if invites for Waterloo's Clinical have already gone out?

Yes, the first round of interviews have gone out.

Did anyone receive an official rejection from UTSC ?

Ryerson and Calgary had their interview/visiting days in early February so if you haven't heard from them it's probably a bad sign. I wasn't invited to either of them but I've spoken to people that were. 

I don't think Dal technically requires an interview, but it seems like most profs at least hold skype/phone interviews. Their first round of offers apparently went out in January. 

Do you happen to know anything about UTSC ? Haven't received any kind of news since I applied.

Kind of an unexciting answer, but just working and finishing up a potential 2nd publication to improve applications next year if not admitted on this first go-around (aiming to get it submitted by the end of March so that if I am not accepted, I'm not too de-motivated to finish it). Sort of comforting to know I'm still improving my chances next year.

All of that, and copious amounts of heroin of course.

Seems like the logical thing to do but I am having a hard time concentrating on anything

No problem! Hang in there (easier said than done - it's starting to eat away at me as well).

What strategies do you use to distract yourself about this ? I know this is ironic because gradcafe is probably not one of those methods

I'm not sure I would say it's more or less likely for them to accept it. If they're holding on to it, then it's likely they have a more preferred school and haven't been accepted there yet (or are waiting for funding info). So, they keep their current offer as a backup plan, but don't want to jump the gun. If they've got multiple offers, then one would hope/think they would decline all but the best offer they've received so far.

I'm also in the wait-list boat (looks to be my only shot), but I generally wouldn't expect to know your fate until April, unfortunately. That's when funding information will be released, and when people will need to start making final decisions on their offers, so there will be a lot of shifting around in terms of wait-lists/offers - hopefully enough to push us to the front of the line!

Thanks, I needed to hear it from someone else that I shouldn't hope to hear anything before April. This wait is really hard. I hope we get lucky.

I'm wondering if someone is holding on to an offer and not accepting it, is it more or less likely that they will accept it as time goes by? I'm waitlisted and this makes me think that this person's first choice is another place but I don't why they are not just declining if that's the case, it's been 3 weeks since they received their offer.

Hmm.. Looks like that happened to me as well (just 1 school). Odd.

Does this status change mean you are more likely to be waitlisted or accepted to that school or it doesn't say anything ?

Accepted to York- my top choice school with my top choice POI!!!! Omg I'm gonna cry. 200 applicants, 8 available spots for new students. I'm so excited!!!! I don't even know what to do with myself.

Don't give up guys. This is my 4th round applying, and I've had 55 rejections. I can't even believe this is really happening right now.

Wow congratulations ! I'm very happy for you. 

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Yes exactly what happened to me too

I'm assuming other people got an email this morning saying their CGS M application status had changed, only to enter the portal and find that everything is the exact same? >:(

 

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Does anyone know if you get CGS, PIs may take you ?

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

is there any chance left for UTSC?

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

If you have an offer from York, can you please decide soon ? 

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Are accepted applicants at York also given a deadline to accept or it's just April 15 ? Thanks

Grad office may still be shooting out official letters of acceptance, but most PIs should have reached out to the students they want to recommend for acceptance already. 

Thanks. Do you know if they let the short-list applicants know if they are waitlisted or they won't reject until the end of the term ?

Congratulations! Which program?

Also, does anyone have any updates on York Clinical Developmental after their interview/open house?

Nope nothing 

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

How long did you wait after the interview to hear back ?

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Has anyone gotten an offer from York yet ?

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

what takes so long about decisions after an interview ? 

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Thanks

It's hard to wait for me too

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Has anyone heard from York ?

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Has anyone heard back from UTSC ? Do you know if they interview outside the official interview weekend ?

[Fall 2017 CANADIAN clinical psychology]

Does this mean that if I haven't heard anything from UTSC by tomorrow, it's a rejection ? Are you sure all the interviews are supposed to go out this week ?
