    Anyone know about the status of things over at FDU or LIU Post? Are they done sending invites?

    School: Immaculata UniversityType: Clinical PsyDDate of invite: 01/22/2019Type of invite: Email from dean of graduate studies - not a mass email, I emailed to follow up and she asked which interview date I wanted. She said she will begin emailing everyone starting tomorrow. Yay! Interview dates are 2/25, 2/26, or 2/27.

    Same, but for Yeshiva's Adult Clinical PsyD program. It's been crickets over there!

    Yeah, and Harvard also lets their POIs take full charge of the interview process. So some will reach out sooner than others, etc. There's no admissions committee, so to speak.
  5. dancedementia
    Whaaaaat. MAYBE THERE'S STILL HOPE?! I'm crossing my fingers so hard right now.

    Mercer poster on the results page, was this a mass email?

    Boston got a really bad snowstorm this past week, so that might have put a delay into some of their operations. Are you asking about Clinical or Counseling? I have a mentor who works in Counseling that I'm happy to ask about interviews status if anyone applied there.

    Another day, another empty inbox. Going crazy here.

    Oh lordy. My partner is going into his last year of postbacc studies for med school (his undergrad was in a liberal arts area). So he'll be applying next fall. We have absolutely no idea how we're going to work out that geographical puzzle. He said he would try to apply to schools near where I get in, but med school is just as much of a crapshoot so I'm encouraging him to apply broadly even if it means long distance for several years. Ugh.

    I can really resonate with that. Our lease is up in April and I'm not sure whether I should be looking at month-to-month, sublets, etc. and where, because it is possible I would have to leave in August if I get into a program. I also graduate from my masters program in May, and I'm wondering how I should spend the summer. I'm interviewing for part time jobs right now but I feel shitty that I might need to leave them in a few months, and... yeah. I guess I'm just uncomfortable with the state of not knowing where I'm going to be physically located and where I'll need to try to put roots down. It's like I'm in limbo and I hate being in a constant state of transition.

    Damn if this isn't a mood. The connections are everything in this game, and as someone who didn't do psych undergrad and also applied for schools out of state and in a different concentration area than my masters, I feel like I don't know ANYONE to vouch for me on a personal level. It sucks. I purposefully applied to more PsyD and less-research-based PhD programs so that my clinical experience could shine more on its own, but research connections are still so important.

    I tell my programs they are "one of my top choices" so I'm not explicitly lying
  13. dancedementia
    I personally wore business/office dresses to all my interviews because I move and act much more relaxed/natural in it vs. a suit. I know it's frowned upon by some sticklers, but if the program is going to ding me over something this petty, it's probably not a program I want to be in. I much prefer feeling confident about myself to tugging awkwardly on my suit and being visibly uncomfortable.
  14. dancedementia
    Same here. Most of my schools have traditionally notified in the last week of January. I'm excited and terrified all at once.
  15. dancedementia
    I told my top choice school point blank that it was my top choice when they asked, "Why do you want to attend this program?" And obviously explained why.
  16. dancedementia
    I'm hoping the invites are just coming in waves! Last year 70 applied and 15 got in, which probably means they invited more than 15 to interview, so odds are not horrible. This program's high on my list because if you get an assistantship, they're a fully funded PsyD (!!!) There's also adjunct teaching opps for folks with a masters degree (I think I remember reading that you're currently finishing up a masters program?) Crossing my fingers for us both!
  17. dancedementia
    Anyone heard from Fairleigh Dickinson?
  18. dancedementia
    Ugh I didn't get one sob
  19. dancedementia
    I was at Boston, Chicago, and Houston. I think you'll be okay!
  20. dancedementia
    I have not experienced anything out of the ordinary at airports. Actually, I was able to get through much faster than usual this past weekend O___o
  21. dancedementia
    Wow, that's a really competitive interview selection process. Congrats!
  22. dancedementia
    Any updates on Rutgers PsyD (adult) and Immaculata PsyD? I saw one invite each on the spreadsheet, was it mass email?
  23. dancedementia
    Ferkauf/Yeshiva poster on the results page from yesterday, was your interview for the Adult or Child PsyD? Going crazy here
  24. dancedementia
    Three of the programs I've applied to (Immaculata, Yeshiva, FDU) have had other people get invites to interviews, but it's usually just one or two so I don't know if I'm just rejected outright or if they're outliers. I'm going crazy second guessing myself and my abilities. I really don't know how I'll react if I don't get in anywhere this cycle
  25. dancedementia
    In the same boat as both of you. I heard from three places all in the same week (before Christmas) and it's been crickets since then. A couple of my schools have sent out invites apparently but I haven't heard back from anyone so I'm panicking.
