What do people think about a pink shirt with black pants and a black blazer? this is the shirt: http://thumbs.ebaystatic.com/images/g/tsYAAOSwAKxWVgiA/s-l225.jpg also the blazer has sheer sleeves made out of a chiffon-type material. that wouldn't be a problem, would it? I want to wear clothes I feel good in and I do have a traditional blazer but the fit feels awkward.

@2017psych UT Austin dev psych or human development?

No, it seems like they send out invites at the very end of January, from looking at past years on the results page.

I only know of Chase-Lansdale, I've never worked with her personally but she seems like a total powerhouse. Her work is great!

Hi Caroline - did the email say that they have given official offers of acceptance? I was under the impression that it was just an interview weekend

If you don't mind my asking, who are both of your POIs? I don't know too many faculty in the HDSP program but I do know a handful.

Of course! I absolutely love Chicago, I was considering applying to the HDSP program actually but ended up deciding against it due to lack of fit with my chosen POI. But oh, how I would have loved to be in Evanston again, because I *love* love love Chicago! There's so much to do, from going to speaker series' and seminars at NU and other universities in the city (DePaul often has some cool speakers and events), to visiting the different neighborhoods, to just doing silly touristy stuff like walking up and down the Mag Mile even if you don't have the money to afford anything there. If you know where to look/what pages and groups to keep an eye out for on Facebook, you will see a lot of cool events. I myself was never much into comedy/stand-up so I can't say too much about it. But Chicago is famous for Second City, which is an improv comedy theatre group in the city. A lot of people from Second City end up going on to SNL. On campus, there are also lots of improv comedy groups like Mee-Ow! and the Panini Players. NU is also a big theatre school so there are ALWAYS productions of some sort, big and small, more established and more independently run, going on. I do not think actual "stand-up" comedy is a big thing though. I have been to two plays and one of my student groups often collaborated with Mee-Ow!, and all of my experiences have been great If you're into art/underground stuff, the city does not have much of an art scene. We of course have the Art Institute and the Museum of Contemporary Art but other than that, it's not anything like NYC.

Hey all, I went to NU for undergrad. I'd be happy to answer any questions about the campus and about Evanston/Chicago area in general

Thank you!

If you're desperate you could try emailing a current student in the program, and asking if they remember what they did when they were going through the application process. They'll likely respond even though it's the weekend.

To respond to myself (lol), it looks like someone posted on the results page about receiving an email invitation for an interview today for the social program at Stanford. Someone got the same for UW too. Hope this means good news is coming my (our) way(s)!

Sorry to be annoying and keep asking about different schools, but has anyone heard from the human development program at Cornell or dev psych at UIUC?

@C is for Caps Locks congrats on U of M and on all your interviews! Out of curiosity, were you able to make contact with your POI prior to submitting your application? I had tried reaching out to a couple professors there, in the social program, back in October and never received a response from either of them.

Has anybody heard from University of Washington or Stanford social programs?

I heard from UNC back in mid-December and was officially invited to the interview weekend on December 19th @psychphd2017
