  1. I have been having these same feelings of anxiety, so it feels good to see I am not alone I guess. I just moved across the country a few weeks ago and was having severe anxiety leading up to the move and since arriving. I start my semester soon and every evening I have this crushing anxiety that I am going to be miserable, have no personal time, or not be able to rise to the challenges. Thank you both for the shared experiences, hopefully it goes away soon! Cassifrassidy, I definitely understand what you're going through and you're not alone lol

    Personally, I did ask about invites but phrased it in such a way that indicated that I was really interested in X school, but I have received interview invites from schools Y and Z and wanted to make sure that if invited, I would be able to attend X school's interview day. However, I only asked this question if my POI reached out to me for an informal interview over the phone or demonstrated lots of interest in having me join their lab. All of the schools I've been invited to are paying for travel costs. I don't think it comes off as impatient--if anything, if you phrase it as I did above, it makes you sound like a competitive applicant because so many places want to interview you! 

    I think I will word it in that way; that I have a previous invite in the area but I wanted to make that university a priority if possible. Unfortunately, my programs (Clinical) are so far not paying for travel costs, although they are providing a place to stay at least. I appreciate the feedback - this entire process has been the most stressful months I can remember!

  3. I had a similar question, if I can piggy back! I have an interview in a few weeks already, and am waiting to hear back from another university that is close the one I am interviewing at. The interview days are a couple days apart, and they are on the other side of the country from me. Anyway, would it be inappropriate to email the PoI/call the office now to ask about invites, as I am trying to book flights now if possible? I don't want to appear impatient or anything, especially if I end up on a wait list or something.

    I am looking for any information regarding the following schools.  I know some of the schools have sent out invites, but I am interested to know if anyone knows about rejections as well:

    • University of Alabama at Birmingham
    • East Carolina University
    • University of Louisville (when are interviews?)
    • University of Miami (anyone received a rejection?)
    • University of Missouri-Kansas City
    • University of New Mexico

    I am still waiting for Birmingham as well, I have not heard any news. Regarding Miami, I did receive an invite, but I have not heard about any rejections (I imagine that doesn't happen till after interviews for the most part).
