    Re: OISE, in years past, they have been slightly later than other programs. Typically first week of Feb for interviews and then first week of March for acceptances.

    OISE - MA (CCP and SCCP) do have interviews

    Looks like you're a really strong candidate! Well done If you're thinking of going on to a PhD in either clinical or counselling psych, I would recommend leaning towards the MA programs with a thesis. If not, then MEd is a great choice and saves the research burden.

    I'd say fine to use abbreviations for the really common test you've mentioned. Otherwise it eats up too much precious word count! If that's still too much detail, you could group them generally by saying "widely-used/common psycho-educational" or "psychodiagnostic" tests.

    I realize your deadline is today (!!) so you might have already made your decision. I would go for the clinical program, it is possible to transfer to another PhD program after your MA. Or you may find you enjoy living in that location, after all! It sounds like you're a strong candidate to have two offers, congrats. But it would be risky to roll the dice for next year with two offers in hand

    For CCP at least, I haven't heard of anyone being admitted without a meeting, phone call or some kind of significant contact with a POI before an offer. I suppose it's possible though!

    It's still a smidge early to hear official acceptance from OISE CPP (especially this year) but sometimes a POI will slip an email unofficially with good news. I met with the current students/lab after acceptances, so I would not take that as a bad sign

    Of course! Please do I think you would have a slight advantage of doing an MA counselling psych if your goal is PhD Clinical psych. If you did a thesis, you would have less (or no!) coursework to make up. The MEd counselling paves a logical path to an EdD counselling psych. The folks I know who've done an MEd first have had to fully do another MA clinical psych before the PhD. I don't think any choice would permanently "close the door" to a PhD in clinical psych but in my experience, the MA with a thesis is generally an easier fit.

    From personal experience - you can! I did a terminal MA in counselling psych (with thesis) and am now doing a clinical + counselling PhD program (OISE). I think the key thing is doing a thesis. It's also good to check the equivalent course requirements for any future clinical programs, to make sure your training lines up as much as possible

    Congrats! Is this visiting day an interview day? If I had two conflicting interview spots, I would inform the site that offered later that I already have an interview booked at that time (but am delighted, very interested blah blah) and see if there's another time. Or maybe you attend part of it? Haha, what are the chances?!
  34. +ve regard
    My vote is to send a "thank you" email and then wait patiently I know it's tough. But you're in a good spot having had the interview, so they will contact you when you need to be contacted...if that makes sense. I would not send a follow-up email other than a "thank you."

    Adding my two cents and echoing what's been said already...#1 get that official offer first #2 in the funded programs, RA/TA/GA positions typically go to current students as it offsets their funding package (i.e. you work for some of the funding). If this is the case at your program, you might have to wait until you are an official student in Sept. However, (once you have that offer in hand) it's totally fair to chat to your supervisor about wanting to do some research work over the summer. If they don't have anything for you to do (unlikely) or any funded for you to do it (slightly more likely) they might suggest other opportunities. A good supervisor wants to support you through your grad school journey and I wouldn't expect them to block you from other paid research opportunities.
