Well I am definitely getting more and more anxious now that 2 countries have found out. Hopefully Norway will know soon.

Fingers crossed it happens earlier than later. I applied to Norway for 8 months.

Well I thought I would get the discussion for this year rolling. After watching someone in my lab go through this last year, I should know better than to anticipate any info about GROW at this time, but anyone heard anything lately?

I was just awarded this year and the guidelines said the same things when applied. My lab focuses on neuroimaging and general emotions. Clinical Students can apply as long as the proposal isn't based in clinical work or uses a clinical population.

I am in a clinical psych program and was awarded the fellowship. I believe there were 7 people in clinical psychology programs. You can look through the list of people who received the fellowship by area of study. Another person in my lab got the NSF last year. Both of our proposal did not include clinical populations, but focused on methodological issues regarding clinical research

I think I got it

I come from a family of 4 clinical psychologist, and just went through the application process myself. Personally, I think you have a really good shot. I didn't have as good of a GRE score (though my GPA was a bit higher) and got offers from several programs PhD programs. The single most mentioned thing in my interviews was my work outside of the classroom. I think people take for granted how important work in the field is for your chance of getting into a program. The biggest things you can do to increase your chances are to apply to programs where you match well with the faculty member and do your research on them. It isn't terribly hard to go through the process and my motto was let the programs decide if you have a good enough shot of getting in instead of trying to make the decision yourself. Best of Luck making your decisions and possibly applying!
