  1. Yeah, most of the time, you'll have to redo your MA, regardless of whether you do it in the states or another country. Sometimes programs will allow you to transfer your MA thesis, with the approval of the psychology department and often you'll have to defend it again. Sometimes you'll be able to transfer some courses, but often it is limited to 6-9 credits that you can transfer. There are good funded MA programs in the U.S. - for example Villanova and Wake Forest. If you got into one of those programs, at least you wouldn't be losing as much money. There are some awesome Canadian schools, like UBC and UT. I'm not sure how they are on transferring MA courses, but maybe they may be more inclined to let you do it? I'd look into that as well.
  2. Yes, you could get accepted to a PhD program, though you'll likely have to redo all or part of your masters. There aren't many field positions for a master's in psychology, unless it is quant or clinical or counseling. That being said, the jobs mostly available to clinical or counseling are practicioner positions, which might be limited or not possible for someone with a master's degree outside the U.S. (I'm not sure here....you'd have to make sure you looked at all the APA guidelines for what qualifies one to practice with a master's level degree - these requirements will also vary from state to state).
  3. I'm secretly not losing hope either. But I just wish they'd tell me if it is a silent waiting list.
  4. Could be good, bad, or they are waiting. I have one of those too. But I've just signed it off as a rejection. :/
  5. In the same boat. Trying to decide whether to act on an offer from No Where University, while I'm anxiously waiting it out on the Waiting List at a school.
  6. I love this one: University Of Nebraska-Lincoln Social Psychology, PhD (F15) Rejected via E-mail on 17 Mar 2015 A 17 Mar 2015 It's all good, I've always kind of wanted to work at Walmart and become a raging alcoholic anyway.
  7. That's embarrassing: two points short of perfect, said no one ever. Lol congrats! That's awesome!
  8. I don't want to get entangled in any disputes. But I, myself, like a little Bush. Specifically, the ones that Leap. And that are Tenacious.
