  1. Gellert- I read the requirements and it appears that they do not accept proposals from clinical or counseling. I am guessing the reason Storyhill22 and their lab member were able to receive it is because it was in previous year prior to these new guidelines, assuming that it is indeed a new guideline instituted this year. 

     

    What a shame because it does indeed seem like an excellent opportunity. Anyone know of similar fellowships in which counseling/clinical people can apply?

     

    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. 

  2. Has anyone in the Clinical/Counseling Psyc field been able to receive the GRFP?

     

    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

  3. 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!
