U Toronto has a clinical program?
-
Could the person who posted the UBC interview please tell who your POI is?
Thank you! And congratulations!
-
Would the person who got accepted at UVA mind telling who your POI was?
Thanks!
-
I was told by people, including professors and students from last year.
The invites are sent out by POIs, and once you're asked to go to the recruitment event, you have a pretty good chance of getting accepted. There isn't a formal interview, though I expect that you'd be able to meet with professors during the recruitment event.

Nosek said that he may take a new student next year.my POIs are Nosek and Wilson. didnt quite get my hopes up for UVA in the first place. do you know if Nosek is taking anybody?
-
I know, he told me when I emailed him. But he also said to apply anyway, just in case our interests match a lot, and especially if I was also interested in other professors there.Haidt isn't taking students.
-
You too!good luck!!
do you mind telling who you applied to work with at UVA?
I applied to work with J. Haidt and B. Nosek. You?
-
Cool, thanks!
I guess I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Do you know if the Cornell invites are being sent by the department or by POIs?
I think I saw a Cornell invite posted on the results page a while ago, too.
-
Toronto apparently has the POIs invite potential students for the recruitment event.
So you don't really have a formal interview, but just need to wait for your POI to invite you.
-
So has anyone heard from Cornell or UVA?

How do you find out that they haven't looked at your applications?Thus far I've dropped at least $300 for 3 schools that took my app fee and my GRE report without even looking at my app. What sort of economic transaction is this? If somebody, anybody at all, spent an hour reviewing my app and then threw it in the trash, they would at least have rendered me an intellectual service that justifies the money I gave them. Here they just take the money and trash my app.
This is only one of many things that don't make any sense to me about the workings of academia. It's like you have to sign an implicit agreement to forgo your entitlement to common-sense fairness when you volunteer to join academe, in exchange for the slim chance of one day being on the benefiting side of said lack of fairness.
-
I think that's probably the case, too. Though it wouldn't hurt to call and check.I would think that somebody just hasn't updated your online file rather than them just passing over your application all together.
-
You can try to give them a call and see what's up.
My Virginia application still says they have not received my GRE scores, even though I sent those in October. I even called them to make sure they got it, and they said they'd update my file. They didn't. I'll wait a couple of days and call back.

Yah, I was talking to a professor last week, who mentioned that there is a lot of research starting now looking at various aspects of morality.
It'd be so cool if we all got in and could work together or something.
-
Cool.
I applied to work with Del Paulhus.
-
Yah. I submitted my application pretty early though, so I thought maybe they'd start looking early or somethingNope, nothing from UBC. Having a Jan. 15th deadline and an internationally known program, I bet they still have a lot of applications to go through before we hear any news.
.Who are your POIs there, if you don't mind me asking?
-
On the Cornell website, it did say that people would typically be notified by the end of January regarding the recruitment weekend. But I don't think I've seen any social people getting anything yet. So fingers crossed for everyone.
JSocial86 - by the way, have you heard anything from UBC yet?
-
I applied to work with Dr. Pizarro at Cornell as well (though I'm also interested in the work of Tom Gilovich and David Dunning).
I haven't heard anything from that school yet though.
-
U Toronto doesn't do formal interviews, I don't think.
Did you apply to/contact specific POIs there? If you did, you may receive an informal interview with your POI(s). Then you just have to wait for them to invite you to the visiting weekend sometime in late February/early March. If you get an invite to this weekend, you're pretty much accepted into the program.

Has anyone heard from UBC? I saw an acceptance posted a while ago, but am not sure if all of them have gone out yet.
I was told by the graduate secretary that they will try to finalize the decisions in the coming week or so.
